A Tranquil Mountain Retreat 90 Minutes from Sydney
Who We Are at Paci Lodge
Paci: The Plural of Peace
Pace (Italian): a situation in which there is quiet and calm. We didn't go looking for this name. We simply made a commitment to each other at Cafe Paci in Newtown and could not think of a better name for our place in the country.
Do Anything, Including Nothing
Hikes, home cooked feasts, bird watching, taking in the views from the balcony or having a midday nap and listening to nature.
Explore
From hitting the road and exploring the Hunter Valley, to telling stories around the campfire and looking at the stars, Paci is a place from which to explore and reflect.

The Property
Paci lodge is set over 5 acres and offers both curated and as nature intended bush settings. There is a lot of exploring to do
Walkie Talkie: With such a property, what better way to communicate than with two way Walkie Talkies! They are in the kitchen and charged for the family to use
There are 4 exclusive outside areas including expansive balcony, downstairs patio, entertaining area with BBQ and the extensive outdoor area which includes...
....the firepit. Ignite a roaring fire under the stars, bring your guitar or speaker and sing the night away. Or just listen to the crackling fire and keep comfort in the sounds of silence.
