Strategically located in Scone – the ‘Horse Capital of Australia’ – the Belmore Hotel benefits from a thriving regional economy driven by the world-class thoroughbred industry, tourism, and agriculture. With over 12.2 million visitors to the Hunter Valley annually, including 4 million overnight domestic tourists, the region continues to experience strong economic growth.
