Cessnock is a city in the Hunter Region of New South Wales, Australia, about 52 km by road west of Newcastle. It is the administrative centre of the City of Cessnock LGA and was named after an 1826 grant of land called Cessnock Estate, which was owned by John Campbell.
The local area was once known as “The Coalfields”, and it is the gateway city to the vineyards of the Hunter Valley, Cessnock is the commercial centre of the area now known as Hunter Valley Wine Country.
Cessnock is the largest town of the Hunter Region and a country town at heart. This is a great place if you’re looking for the combination of creature comforts and fabulous rural scenery – a hub of shopping and amenities set against a backdrop of stunning wine-country scenery.
There are also significant historic points of interest, such as the Convict Trail, a conservation project to restore the national historic treasure that is the convict-built Great North Road. Cessnock is also renowned for its 1920s and 1930s architecture, with many well-preserved cottages, churches and public buildings on display, such as the Marthaville Arts and Culture Centre.
For more cultural fare, the Cessnock Performing Arts Centre and Cessnock Regional Art Gallery is a treat.
