Picturesque Pools: Top spots to swim in the Hunter Valley

In the scorching heat of summer, when the sun beats down relentlessly, finding relief becomes a priority. While an ice-cold beverage provides a momentary reprieve, there's nothing quite like the invigorating sensation of plunging into a refreshing body of cool water.

Luxuriate in the adults only 25 metre pool at Rydges Resort Hunter Valley, the perfect place for couples, solo guests and tired parents to take five and have a drink poolside. Or, come for a splash at the on-site water located next to the main pool, parents can rewind and relax on the sun lounge chairs while the kids have a blast in the super-popular Water Park.
