Turn left here. Travel down Allandale Road which soon becomes known as Lovedale Road. You will pass various notable landmarks such as the Hunter Chocolate Factory on the left, Leaves & Fishes Restaurant on the right, Majors Lane on your left, and a group of wineries, including Tatler Wines (on your right) and Adina Vineyard (on your left).
