The King Valley of Australia is a region that has flourished despite a period of great change. Once the center of the tobacco industry in the continent, this ceased to exist in the early 21st century when Australia stopped growing tobacco leaves for cigarette companies. However, the Italian immigrants in the area had planned ahead for this transition and prepared to excel in another industry: wine and dining. Today, the King Valley is the best wine region in the country and is also known for its delicious cuisine. It’s also full of amazing Airbnb rentals located amongst natural beauty and amazing views. Read on to find some of the top Airbnbs in and around Cheshunt for your visit to the area.

2. Unique rental in converted tobacco kiln (from USD 170)
This rental is located in a historic building that gives visitors a truly unique experience. Once a tobacco kiln, the building has been converted into a living space but still has traces of its former purpose. The interior has stone walls while the exterior has a unique shape. Because Australia no longer grows tobacco, these kinds of buildings are rare to see and even more rare to stay in! Up to two people can sleep in this rental, which has a kitchen and parking. It’s close to many great wineries and restaurants, and the hosts generously provide transportation for guests who don’t want to drive home after drinking.

7. La Casetta Cottage
Once the center for tobacco production in Australia, the King Valley converted to a wine and dining destination after the tobacco growth ceased in the early 2000’s. With many Italian immigrants living in the area, the food and wine here are among the best in Australia! The hosts of this private guest cottage have tons of recommendations for local food and wine. One of their nearby recommendations is Chrismont, which has a cellar and produce store where you can purchase preserved and picked fruits and vegetables. In the restaurant, you can enjoy simple Italian dishes inside by the fire or outside on the veranda. After a day of eating, this cottage is the perfect place to rest with its cozy bedroom. The rental also features an outdoor pool and a porch that overlooks the natural beauty and local wildlife.
