The Best Accommodation In Orange For A Wine-Filled 2026 Weekend
Orange is one of NSW's top food and wine destinations and it boats some of the best accommodation to go with it. Sitting about 3.5 hours outside Sydney in the Central Tablelands, the Orange region is young, exciting, and made up of a stunning tableau of vineyards peppered around a dormant volcano.
Throw in some seriously good restaurants and a few winery visits, and you've got yourself a delicious weekend adventure—we'd suggest planning a trip around Orange FOOD Week, which falls in March/April each year. Of course, after all that feasting and wine-sipping, you're going to need a place to stay.

Vinosa
Four words. Private spa and sauna. When our Orange wine-tasting is paired with a set-up this good, we are well and truly hooked. Vinosa is a four-bedroom beauty, situated a seven-minute drive from the centre of town, offering a spacious base for group stays and a backyard with rolling views.
Wake in your Queen-size bed (or the King with its ensuite and walk-in robe if you got lucky) and you can pad down to your gourmet kitchen to make yourself a cuppa before planning your day. If it’s a tour that takes your fancy, just ask your hosts, as they offer a range of extras and experiences to level up your vacay game.
Once you’ve sipped your way around the local cellar doors, you can rest easy in the knowledge that there’s an epic outdoor kitchen back at base—so you can whip up a post wine-tasting feast while carrying on the group chat. There’s a fire pit to gather around and toast marshmallows come dessert-time and of course that bubbling outdoor spa for a pamper session later.

Bon Bon Apartment
A once-forgotten 1970s apartment, now lovingly reimagined and given a fresh lease on life, is drenched in welcoming pistachio and caramel hues.

Together, they’ve created a space that reflects the cosy, laid-back charm that Orange is known for. From the subtle checkerboard tiles in the kitchen that grow bolder as they reach the bathroom, to the cosy breakfast nook designed to hold meaningful conversations with your loved ones on a sleepy Sunday morning, every nook and cranny in this two-storey townhouse has been carefully thought out. Sleeping up to four guests, it’s the perfect base for the entire family for a wine-filled escape.
