Sandy Hollow, NSW


Ratings: CP *  Surroundings ***



Spring has arrived and light dustings of yellow cover the tops of wattle trees. Sandy Hollow is a rural village with the Giant's Leap sandstone hills providing a dramatic backdrop. It lies in the Upper Hunter Valley which is home to the Wanaruah Aboriginal people, the original custodians of the area.

The lushness of  the Upper Hunter Valley where thoroughbred mothers and foals play, share time and thrive.
