Singleton 

A main service centre in the Hunter Valley region for surrounding towns, Singleton is a prime location to stock up on those mental and physical resources for your journey around New South Wales. Browse around the quaint shops and stop at a traditional-style tearoom, the Aboriginal heritage sites, huge orchard and floral displays; stretching your legs around this sweet and sleepy place that's a quiet country pleasure.

Visitors should take the Singleton Town Walk. Visit the Historical Museum and the Mercy Convent.

Singleton is famous for food and wine. Visit the many wineries nearby including the famous Rosemount Estate and taste the excellent local produce. Singleton is home to one of the oldest wine growing areas and also some unique attractions such as Australia’s oldest winery, the largest Sundial and the biggest Solar Farm in the Southern Hemisphere.

The settlement of Singleton began in 1820. By the 1860s, with the coming of the railway, the district rural industries increased and the town prospered. It was the development of the massive coal deposits in the latter part of the 20th century that saw an increase in the population and added to the expansion of the district.
