Summary
Weather for Lovedale

Lovedale is renowned as the Heart of the Hunter and is located in the lower Hunter Valley directly east of Pokolbin. Lovedale is a village of boutique wineries, quaint guesthouses and fine dining. As one of the most established small Hunter towns, Lovedale provides more than meets the eye. Along with unique galleries, and recreation activities such as golf, adventure trips, hot air ballooning, horse-riding, Lovedale has it all.

The Lovedale community is unique in that it works together to provide for the visitor a Lovedale experience based on quality, value for money and personal service. The service is friendly and family focused, and the atmosphere is relaxed and enjoyable with less traffic, less haste, stunning views and quality wines. Food and accommodation are also premier. Everyone is encouraged to linger longer in Lovedale!

Lovedale hosts a number of events throughout the year, with the signature event being the famous Lovedale Long Lunch held on the third weekend in May each year. In addition, wineries conduct their own functions such as Country Music in the Vines, String Quartet in the Vines, olive oil promotions, pasta classes and special events to celebrate living in the Heart of the Hunter.

The history of Lovedale, however, as a major wine-producing area dates back to the early 1800s when local wheat and general produce farmers turned to grape growing. Settlement in Lovedale dates prior to 1825.
