As a working mum, I know there are always reasons not to plan the things you've been thinking about doing. But if you've seen our posts and thought you'd love to spend a day in the Hunter Valley with your girls — I'm here to ask what you're waiting for.

My partner and I have spent the last few years building something we're really proud of. Small-group luxury w**e tours to the Hunter Valley — the kind of day where someone else has thought of everything, where you move through cellar doors most people never get near, where the w**es poured in front of you genuinely can't be found anywhere else in the world. Not in a bottle shop, not in a restaurant, not online. The only way to taste them is to be there, with someone who has spent twenty years earning the trust of the people who make them.

We watch our guests come back to the car after that particular stop and there's always a moment — this quiet kind of wonder — where they realise they've just experienced something really special. That's what we've built. That's the day we want people to have.

We wish more people on the Northern Beaches knew they could do this. Because the getting-there part is so much simpler than you'd think — you take the Palm Beach to Ettalong ferry, we cover your return ticket, and we pick you up on the other side. One hour saved, no one stuck driving, and you're in the Hunter Valley before the morning is gone.

Booking takes two minutes. Instant confirmation, no back and forth. Just a date, a click, and a day worth looking forward to.

Any questions, drop them below or DM me 🍷

I know life on the Coast is full. I live it too. But I also know that the days we actually carve out for ourselves — really carve out, not just fantasise about — are the ones we talk about for months and years afterwards.

I say that because it's exactly the day we built our business around. My partner and I run small-group luxury w**e tours to the Hunter Valley — we're based in Saratoga, we pick up from anywhere on the Central Coast, and we've spent the last few years building something we're genuinely proud of.

There's a version of your weekend that involves rolling through vineyard country with nowhere to be and nothing to organise. The day itself is the kind that's hard to describe without sounding like you're overselling it. You get picked up from your door and spend the morning moving through cellar doors that most people never get near — including one where the w**es aren't available anywhere else in the world, not in bottle shops, not in restaurants, not online. The only way to taste them is to be there in person with someone who has the relationship to open that door, and that's Daniel. Twenty years working alongside these w**emakers means you're not just another visitor — you're a guest, and you feel the difference. By the time you're sitting down to eat, surrounded by vines, with a glass of something you couldn't have found on your own, the week behind you feels very far away.

What are you waiting for? Booking takes two minutes and is genuinely fuss-free. Pick a date, click Book Now, and it's done. No back and forth, no waiting to hear back — instant confirmation.

If you've got questions, drop them below or flick me a DM. I love talking about this stuff 🍷

Single, over fifty, and finding that the opportunities to meet someone have quietly narrowed? There are a small number of men's places left on The Grape Date, Sunday 16 August. The women's tickets have sold out.

The day departs Palm Beach Wharf at 9:00am by ferry, where Daniel meets the group at Ettalong before heading into the Hunter Valley. Two private cellar door tastings, a long lunch at eRemo, and home by early evening.

Ten guests only — five women, five men. The afternoon is structured so you have a real, unhurried conversation with everyone there. That's the whole point of it.

We built this after finding each other later in life. We know how difficult it is to meet someone in a later chapter, and how few settings are actually built for it.

$279 per person. That covers the return ferry, both private cellar door tastings, and every kilometre in between — nothing else to pay on the day beyond lunch at eRemo, which is settled at the venue.

The cellar doors are handpicked, and small enough that you're tasting in the room rather than at a counter with a queue behind you. Daniel has spent years building relationships with the people who make the w**e here, and it shows in the way the day unfolds — the pours are more generous, the conversations longer, and you hear the story behind each bottle from someone who knows it properly.

For more information, including the full itinerary, head to the link below. And feel free to send a DM — happy to answer any questions.

Single men over 50: there are a small number of seats left on Sunday's singles w**e tour to the Hunter Valley, and because it's last minute they're now 50% off!

Five women over 50 are already booked. We need a few more men in the group, and we suspect we know what's holding you back.

You are not the one who organises things. Fine — there is nothing to organise. We collect you from Crowne Plaza Terrigal at 9:15am, drive you to two handpicked cellar doors for private tastings, sort lunch, and have you back at Terrigal by about 5:20pm. You don't need to plan a thing, book a thing, or drive.

You're quietly a bit nervous. Also fine. No name tags, no standing up and telling the room about yourself. Ten guests only, half women and half men, all 50 and over, all local. A gentle rotation at each w**ery means you have a proper conversation with everyone across the day, without anyone being put on the spot. If conversation isn't your strong suit, Daniel will carry it — he's been doing this for years.

For what it's worth, we started running these because we found each other later in life and remember exactly how hard the meeting part is. Sunday isn't a singles night. It's a good day out in w**e country that happens to be full of people who'd like to meet someone.

Sunday 2 August. Use the code GDATE50. Transport and both private tastings included, lunch ordered at the venue.

Book using the link below or comment/send us a message and we'll sort the rest.

Single, over 50, and tired of dating apps? This Sunday we're doing something different that we think you'll love...

We run luxury small-group w**e tours to the Hunter Valley, and this weekend is our first singles event for guests 50 and over. Ten people, five women and five men, travelling together for the day — two private cellar door tastings at handpicked w**eries, a long lunch, and a format designed so you genuinely talk with every person in the group. No name tags, no awkward speed rounds. Just a beautifully unhurried day in w**e country with people at the same stage of life.

We built this because we met each other later in life, and we know how hard it is to meet someone the old-fashioned way once the usual avenues have dried up. A day like this does the introductions for you.

A couple of seats remain for this Sunday, 2 August. To book or for more information click the link below, or send us a message and we'll take care of it for you.

Single men over 35 who are done waiting for the right moment to meet someone — our singles w**e tours are filling and the men's spots are what's left.

Transport and two private cellar door tastings in the Hunter Valley. Ten guests — five women, five men — travelling together, tasting together, with enough time at each venue to actually have a real conversation. Tours start with a ferry crossing to from Palm Beach to Ettalong.

This came from a personal place. We're Kylie and Daniel. We run Coast to Cork, a luxury w**e tour business out of the Central Coast. We found each other later in life. We know what that chapter feels like — the frustration of apps that reduce people to a photo and a swipe, the awkwardness of singles events that feel nothing like real life, the quiet hope that there's a better way. We built this because we genuinely believe there is.

You don't need to come with anyone or know anyone. That's the whole point. Everyone on the tour is in the same position — open, interested, and there by choice. Daniel guides every cellar door tasting personally, and the format of the day means you spend natural, unhurried time with every person in the group. Nobody gets left on the edges.

There are two age groups — 35 to 50, and 50 plus. Both departures, both age groups are open for August. The women have been moving faster.

If you've been sitting on the idea — this is the moment.

We've heard from so many Northern Beaches singles who love good w**e and good food, and would love to meet someone like-minded — but would rather do it over a beautiful afternoon in w**e country than on an app. So we've been quietly working on something new, and it's finally here.

We're Kylie and Daniel from Coast to Cork — we run luxury small-group w**e tours to the Hunter Valley. We created this event because we found each other later in life, and we know better than most how few good opportunities there are to meet someone when you're past the age where it just happens. So we built one.

Ten guests, five women and five men. Two private cellar door tastings in the Hunter Valley, with a format that gives you an unhurried conversation with every person in the room. You come together, travel together, and the day does the rest.

The Palm Beach departure runs from Palm Beach Wharf by ferry — Daniel meets the group at Ettalong and you travel through to the Hunter Valley from there. We run two age groups — 35–50 and 50+ — so you're always among your own people.

Tickets are live now. Dates are released one month at a time.

For anyone that's been contemplating a day trip to the Hunter Valley, why not join us this Saturday? The Hunter is so beautiful this time of year.

You take the ferry across to Ettalong (the return crossing is included, and it's honestly one of the nicest ways to start a day), we collect you on the other side, and from there it's into the Hunter Valley. We begin in the Broke region — tiny, family-run cellar doors, vines as far as you can see — then on to Keith Tulloch, one of the valley's most respected w**emakers. The day finishes at either Thomas Allen, whose w**es you genuinely cannot buy anywhere else, or Vinden Estate, depending on the day. There's a stop at a lovely little artisan chocolatier along the way too.

It's a small group, so the whole day feels considered rather than crowded. Lunch is reserved for you at café Enzo (lunch itself is at your own expense, we simply take care of the booking). The crossing saves about an hour of driving, which makes a full day trip a lot easier.

We have 7 spots left for Saturday.
