What a hidden gem Ducati's is. Peter & Glenys are the quintessential host's. For the ridiculous price you pay...these host's have thought of everything. Fresh eggs (from their own chickens) bacon, toast...and all the condiments for you to make breakfast, a well stocked pantry with sauces, canned baked beans etc, homemade sauces...the list goes on and on. They even offer a cooked dinner menu (made in-house) the dearest item being a steak for $22...ridiculously cheap. The property itself is spa, spotless, quiet and in my opinion...sets the benchmark for B&Bs. To top it off...they truly are pet lover's and welcomed our 2 yro Labrador ',Nickle ' with loving arms. I wouldn't stay anywhere else when passing through

The owners were lovely and very friendly. The room was self contained and out of the way making it very private. The bedroom was very good and the separate kitchen/dining/lounge area was super functional. Located very conveniently off the motorway without traffic noise. Only down side were the morning rooster wake up. Great place to stay and highly recommended.

Owners are lovely. Generosity in providing food and all required services like washing machine / dishwasher / ample of food in pantry. Place is beautiful if maintained little bit better. Air conditioning in living room (only) with set Temperature…not available in bedrooms. Overall ok

Great place for a nights rest. Self sufficient hobby farm property with chooks aplenty. The hosts are very friendly and easy going people. Close to main road with some traffic noise which reduces in the evening. Recommend.

Hi the property was spacious and private, a warm welcome by the owners. Our toddler loved it. Chooks in the garden. And a breakfast supplied to cook when you wanted it, which is great for both parties.

The accomodation was well located in relation to the airport. I didn't hire a car but my hosts were kind enough to drop me off at a train station to go into Newcastle. It's situated on quite a busy road but well set back so as not to be an issue.

Was a great B&B, we had everything we needed, the beds were very comfortable, very nice and friendly owners. Could have been a little better cleaned but I’m very particular. I was very impressed with the food, even gluten free bread in the freezer and fresh eggs, very nice

Good value, comfortable self-contained cottage with a good range of breakfast supplies, only problem is the Rooster that starts crowing at 4am. A good spot to break the journey but the lack of a good night's sleep after a long drive is disappointing.

Excellent accommodation.
We were very happy with our stay at Ducati’s Bed & Breakfast. The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful. The accommodation is very good and we were provided with fresh eggs, from their own chooks, along with bacon for breakfast. Cereal and fruit were also available in the room. Excellent free wifi in the room. We would stay here again.

Roomy, comfortable, fully equipped kitchen (including fresh eggs from friendly chooks next door), leafy garden to roam and relax in, all you could want for a quiet day or two. Friendly and helpful proprietors, not forgetting the manager, Ducati himself (cat who runs the place). Really just a hidden treasure!

Nice B&B that claims they are not on hotels.com ??
The stay was good however the owners cancelled the booking or so they told my mother because Ducati Bed and Breakfast claim they are NOT on Hotels.com website even though they were assured the booking to stay with them was infact made on the Hotels.com site. I accidentally booked the wrong day, I booked the day after the date that was required and my mother was advised on check in that the next day was already booked out so it was lucky they had a bungalow available for my mother to stay in particularly as there is minimal accommodation in that area. I think that your company should contact the bed and breakfast owners and advise them that they ARE in fact listed on your website to avoid and double booking issues in the future. I did in fact ask my mother to ask them to contact you however I have no idea if they will.
