Wine, music and beautiful views!
Adam’s house was the perfect location for our group of friends to enjoy a picturesque weekend away. We thoroughly enjoyed the wine tasting experience at Adam’s Leap cellar door (topped off with a beautiful performance on the grand piano!), and Adam was a very thoughtful and helpful host. We would definitely recommend this as a great place to stay!

Cannot fault this property
Our group of 8 were spoiled with the luxurious and beautifully appointed house located in Adam's Leap Vineyards. Most of all, each couple had their own ensuite/bathroom, which was very important for us. Especially memorable, was the wine tasting at the Cellar Door at the end of our driveway. Some of the best wines we tasted on our weekend in the Hunter, plus the beautiful stories weaved between each wine. We also had a personal emergency at the end of our stay and Adam was very accommodating with some additional help for some of us, which went way beyond what any host would do. Without a doubt, we will come to stay again.

Amazing Breakaway Destination
This is our second visit to Ghost Riders Lodge. It truly is an amazing property. The house itself is large, very spacious and very well equipped. But it goes beyond the house! Nestled amongst vineyards, you get a true immersive country experience with great views. It's a great location from which to explore the Hunter Valley. In this instance we had a family wedding in The Hunter and this home is an ideal base for families and friends attending a wedding in the area. And lastly, Adam is a fantastic host whose communication is exceptional! Enjoy your stay!

About the host

Hosted by Adam Kossak

Host profile image
Hi. I'm Adam and I am the owner and manager of Ghost Riders Lodge at Adam’s Leap Wines.

Adam's Leap Wines is the realisation of a long-time dream. My journey, however, was not necessarily a direct or predictable route. It started in America as an in-house lawyer for a large global software company, followed on with a migration to Australia and a continuing career in the software industry, a return to study in medical school and then to clinical practice as a doctor. After several years, I returned to the software industry, which eventually lead me to roles as a board director.

But throughout my entire journey there was always wine! It began with a detour on a motorcycle ride in South Carolina, then explorations of vineyards in France, Italy, Spain, California and Australia, and eventually a dream of bringing Adam’s Leap Wines to life.

Through the vineyard I am able to make great wines and through Ghost Rider's Lodge and private wine tastings at the Adam's Leap Wines cellar door I am able to provide people with great experiences; both of which are the essence of Adam's Leap Wines.

I hope that you will share this dream with me by choosing to stay at Ghost Riders Lodge at Adam's Leap Wines, by joining me for a complementary private wine tasting at the cellar door and by enjoying some of Adam's Leap Wines with your friends and family.
