Decided to stop in for lunch. We were not disappointed. With a few tables available we were set for a great lunch. Awesome service and delicious food. We decided on the Pepperberry Pork belly with a side of green beans Then dessert was Red wine poached pear and the Apple crumble.

Location is pristine, right by the side of billabong with peace and tranquillity. Food is delivered fast and tastes marvellous, friendly customer service and particularly liked the way staff explained the history of the place and the menu. Beverages are unique and pleasing. The atmosphere is calm and welcoming. Ample parking space to accommodate large crowds. The drive is beautiful to the venue and by itself offers a unique experience.

A fair bit out of the way but definitely worth it. Outlook over the billabong. Lovely spacious interior with beautiful wood detailing and superb decor. Tables well separated. The atmosphere was 6/5. We shared an entree which was new to the menu and was delicious. Wife had Barramundi and I had Beef Cheek. We each had a glass of superior quality wine. We each had dessert and shared a glass of dessert wine. I had a coffee. The meal was outstanding in every way. Presentation and flavour top notch. Quantity just right (not too small!). Service was that nice laid back Australian style where they look after you, friendly without being too familiar and you feel good about it. It wasn't cheap but this was one of the best meals we've had in a while and it was definitely worth it and the travelling a bit further.

Warmly greeted on arrival, were shown you our table. The menu fantastic almost too much to choose from. The arancini balls Devine, ciabatta with balsamic vinegar excellent. Beef cheeks cooked to perfection, just melt in your mouth. Great wines, including 2017 1860’s Shiraz. An absolutely amazing experience. Would recommend highly

Had a wonderful time here celebrating my birthday! The restaurant itself was lovely, the food interesting and delicious and the service very friendly. Unfortunately I forgot the name of our waitress but she had blue and pink split dyed hair. Anyway, she did a great job and answered all our questions happily. We had the special Good Friday 2 course meal including one glass of wine for $65 pp. This was very reasonable, we were just a bit sad that the wine that was included in that price didn't necessarily include something we liked 100% so we went with the next best and then in addition ordered a bottle of moscato which we highly enjoyed. The pink moscato was so delicious! We had a variety of food between us 4. We tried the lemon and sage pasta, the roast lamb, the truffle croquettes, the meat platter and the cheese board. We were very satisfied with everything. We honestly had such a great time with our friends here. After our lunch we headed for a walk behind the restaurant looking at the wine fields. We are not from the area but we will certainly return when we are again! 🍷🧀🥖

Stunning location with peaceful billabong views, delicious food, and warm, attentive staff. A must visit in the region!

I had lunch with my friends at Tahbilk Estate Restaurant. We ordered House Made Mushroom, Parmesan & Truffle Croquettes $21 (there’s nothing special about this dish) Roast & Brined free-range chicken breast $40 (chicken is tender and juicy) Tahbilk Seacuterie plate $68 (this plate comes with 3 pieces of oysters and 3 pieces of prawns and salmon roe crème fraiche) it’s very pricy compared with what we get from this dish Chargrilled 230g Angus Eye Fillet Steak $58 (this quality steak was cooked to perfection) Sweet potato chips (this is my favourite item from the table) Overall, service is not up to the standard. Need to call the server to top up water and server told us they don’t have anything to pack for our left over sweet potato chips)

My usual first stop in any regional town which has an info centre. Almost all have knowledgeable & super helpful, friendly staff. But not this one. The elderly lady had a supercilious unpersonable attitude & just waved towards the brochures display stating "you will find it there". I did not really - as I all I wanted to know was what I could do for just an overnight stay. Google came to my aid later. My 4 stars is for this lovely centre with its interesting & well presented exhibits. The Man from Snowy River memorabilia is excellent & a surprise find. Everything else makes this a mini pseudo art gallery cum museum worth a stop as you enter the township from Bonnie Doon direction. The Great Rail bike & walking Trail passes through 100 metres away & historical society is a stone's throw neaeby. Plenty of parking available.

Fantastic information and great things to look at. We got all the info on how to access the high country and have a great day out. Thanks

Well worth the visit when you first arrive in the area. Very helpful staff and a range of maps and advice

The lady assisting us at Mansfield Information Centre was so helpful. It was great to view the many interesting things to see and do in the area. The enormous Felt Mural was so beautiful.

Good info, helpful staff and useful maps for 4wd. There is a town water tap by the BBQ to refill the caravan tank. Toilets inside and by the train station.

The start (or end) of the great rail trail. The toilets here are a welcome sight at the end of a long ride. The information service is excellent and will tell you all about what you can do in the area.

An Aboriginal art gallery has opened at the Information Centre featuring the works of Jack Macale. Beautiful art set in an intimate space. It will be a permanent feature with new exhibitions opening every few months. The staff at the centre are very friendly and helpful. A new exhibition has been hung featuring Lockhart River Arts artists Evelyn Omenyo and Patrick Butcher Jnr. Evelyn is an elder "Old Girl" who also produces jewellery and baskets and Patrick is an esteemed "Art Gang" member. Both have an international standing. The summer Exhibition features artists from the Nuukurr community from Eastern Arnhem Land.

We arrived on a Sunday afternoon, on the grand final long weekend, with no booking. After some wine tasting with John we were seated at an amazing table overlooking the winery. The food was absolutely fantastic. ALL the staff were amazing, friendly and helpful. And their wines are delicious. We will definitely be going back when we are in the area again!! Chris & Queenie.

What a wonderful lunch we had here yesterday. The staff are absolutely delightful! Thank you for my Italian lessons and also the great wine advice from John. Our gluten free choices were great food was tasty and plentiful and the price of the wines was such good value in the restaurant. What a pleasant surprise not to be charged more than the cellar door price! Great views great ambience could not recommend more highly we certainly will be back!

Had a beautiful birthday lunch. Gorgeous location, delicious food, great service. The honey carrots are almost as good as my nonnas! Bruno look after us excellently. He was attentive and welcoming without being over the top. Didn't feel rushed at all, which can sometimes happen in busier restaurants. Not here! It was absolutely busy, but felt relaxed. Definitely worth a visit, much more relaxed atmosphere than most of the vineyards around here, but still classically beautiful and wonderful ambience.

An absolutely wonderful experience at Chrismont Cellar Door, Restaurant! The food and wines were truly amazing – a perfect showcase of Italian flavours paired beautifully with their elegant wines. I had the privilege of being looked after by Jo, the friendly and lovely owner, who made the visit extra special by sharing the story behind their wines. It’s rare to find such genuine hospitality alongside such exceptional food and wine. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the King Valley – this is a must-do! #ChrismontWines #KingValley #ItalianWine #ExceptionalHospitality #FoodieHeaven #WineLovers #ItalianFlavours #VinoItaliano #CucinaItaliana #EsperienzaUnica #OspitalitàItaliana #BuonVino #VitaItaliana #AmorePerIlCibo #Degustazione

When my parents said they wanted to go to Chrismont's to celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary - we all said sure. We even delayed their lunch from end of July to end of September so we could book in. And it was worth the wait. We had an amazing lunch. Great food, great service, great venue. Thank you.

We had our anniversary Lunch at Christmont yesterday and it was amazing . Our lovely lady Jo was looking after us and she is amazing . The wines are absolutely beautiful and the food is outstanding Thankyou so much

We didn’t stay at Chrismont Winery. We only had an impromptu lunch at Chrismont Restaurant with friends. Food was amazing and service was even better!! The Chrismont owners have so much passion. Highly recommend everyone to dine there BUT must book!!! The view from the restaurant is absolutely stunning!! We hope to go back there soon.

The Ned Kelly Museum & Homestead in Australia offers a fascinating glimpse into one of the country’s most iconic and controversial historical figures. Visiting the site feels like stepping back in time, with well-preserved artifacts, detailed exhibits, and immersive storytelling that brings Ned Kelly’s life and the era he lived in vividly to life. The homestead, surrounded by rustic charm, gives insight into the daily life of the Kelly family, while the museum showcases key moments from Ned’s bushranger days, including his famous suit of armour. The staff are knowledgeable and passionate, adding depth to the experience through engaging stories and historical context. Whether you’re a history buff or just curious about Australian folklore, the museum offers a unique and memorable experience that captures the complexity of Ned Kelly’s legacy. It’s a must-visit destination for anyone looking to explore Australia’s wild colonial past and the myths that still surround it today.

The place is easy to find, very interesting and filled with memorabilia from head to toe. The outside is decorated with hand painted portraits. Prices are reasonable considering what you get to experience. We went on a rainy day and had no one else in there with us. Its incredibly entertaining and informative. Highly interactive with lots of thing to see and hear. Atmosphere is awesome and super emersive. The guy running the place is also incredibly friendly and helpful. Would seriously recommend.

Very passionate knowledgeable staff. Fantastic museum with lots of artifacts and special pieces. Love this place. An asset to the town of Glenrowan and helping keep history alive! Great variety of souvenirs too, for the Ned fans and beyond!

Absolutely amazing museum and incredible staff. The staff were very friendly and very knowledgeable and told us all the incredible stories and information about the capture of Ned Kelly. Highly recommend this a place to visit.

Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Very interesting collection with historic photos capturing the events of Ned Kelly's last stand. Ample parking.

Quaint little town . Pies are delicious. Beautiful antique & photography store . Recommend a visit

We had a history lesson here, staff are fantastic, you are well informed on all of Ned Kelly & other key individuals in Ned's capture , trail, site inspections . There is plenty of memorabilia throughout the town and paraphernalia for sale, t shirts, stubby coolers etc. We spent roughly 2 hours here but are returning on our return from Great Ocean Road Trip. There are Food Shops in the town & staff and locals appear freindly , food was served quick & hot & plenty of places to sit around or park & enjoy.

The sparkling Italian high tea was a great point of difference and very enjoyable…loved the variety! Anthony was a fun and knowledgeable host and made us feel comfortable and content

What an absolutely delightful afternoon! High tea at Pizzini Winery was a delight from both a culinary and social perspective. Beautiful surroundings, friendly, attentive, and welcoming staff, delicious food, and beautiful wines. Dietary restrictions were not an issue; they just need prior notice. If you are in the King Valley do yourself a favour and check out Pizzini Wines and the different experiences they offer.

Always have a fantastic experience here. The wines are excellent with a wide range to suit all tastes and budgets. Staff are so friendly and helpful, there's a genuine family feel to the winery. The setting is beautiful too. An excellent quick stop on your road trip or longer visit if you're staying in the area.

Pizzini wines were great, providing a nice introduction to the Italian wines the region produces. We went during winter and Pizzini were one of the few places open on the weekday we went. Special shout out to Giacomo, our amazing sommelier, who happily answered all our questions - sharing his expertise from his extensive study and practical experience, whilst talking us through the tasting. Really great spot, highly recommend Pizzini wines if you visit King Valley.

Had the pleasure to experience a wine tasting with Anthony and Duncan. I not only loved the wines (particularly the brachetto and riesling), but the knowledge, stories, and recommendations to pair for my upcoming dinner parties was stellar! Loved it and will be back!

Our second stop at the King Valley region was at Pizini Wines ~ Italian at heart inspired where we were warmly greeted by Karen; Mario and Isabelle. Seated in such a warm and welcoming environment, Isabelle presented us with some tasters olives; caramel popcorn; chilli popcorn and bread sticks and presented us with the wine tasting experience!! Isabelle was extremely pleasant, accomodating and provided alternatives for the individual pallet . We enjoyed hearing about the growth of the Pizzini family, their passion and commitments to their winemaking dream. The surroundings were nice to. We were lucky to also have a friendly chat with owner Fred and hear about his experience and innovative ways of continuing business during the pandemic. We truly enjoyed our experience at pizzini. Purchased a few bottles of wine at the end and couldn’t resist buying the caramel popcorn + chilli popcorn ~ thanks for the lovely hospitality and looking forward to returning and trying out the cooking school.

High class and quality winery in the King Valley, specialising in many Italian variety of grapevines making superb wines. Service amazing from Michelle who knew her wines. A must on you next Victorian trip. We will be back

As a wedding photographer, I absolutely love working at Brown Brothers Winery! I've had the privilege of photographing weddings here in all weather conditions - from intimate small ceremonies to big celebrations - and each and everyone has been absolutely breathtaking. What makes this venue truly special is that you can feel that warmth and passion in everything they do. Everyone always goes above and beyond - they're genuinely passionate about good food, excellent wine, and creating one heck of a celebration! This venue truly shines no matter what. Rain or shine, I can always find the perfect backdrop, and the surroundings are always beautifully maintained. Their attention to detail and genuine care for each couple is incredible. You can tell they truly love what they do, and that passion makes every wedding feel so special. I can't recommend Brown Brothers Winery highly enough - it's consistently one of my favourite venues to work at. Highly recommend, Rachael Emmily

We absolutely adored our visit to Brown Brothers planned by Sarah who put together a wonderful itinerary for us! The setting is beautiful and the cellar door is so inviting with the open fire, historical displays, and use of wine barrels to decorate the space. We had the most amazing tasting & tour experience at the cellar door hosted by Jacob who was fabulous at teaching us all about the different wines and how they’re made in a way that was fun, informative, and relatable as someone who enjoys wine but isn’t overly knowledgeable on the subject. He tailored the tasting to our individual preferences and there wasn’t one I didn’t like. We ended up buying many bottles both for ourselves and as gifts after discovering some new favourites. We also had the 5 course degustation lunch in the winery restaurant which was spectacular. Each course consisted of multiple elements that worked in perfect harmony and were utterly delicious, especially when paired with the matching wines. The staff were all incredibly friendly and attentive throughout. Overall I would highly recommend visiting even if it just for a tasting, but definitely check out the range of extra experiences they offer too, there’s definitely more we plan to do too. We’re already planning a return visit for next year as we loved the Milawa region and this winery was definitely the highlight of our trip.

We had a wonderful experience with Milawa Luxe Escape, a collaboration of Brown Brothers and Church Lane Accommodation this weekend. The Church Lane Accommodation was beautiful, quiet and private. At Brown Brothers, we were served the Slow Lunch by Henry and it was such a wholesome experience. We do a lot of rushed meals, so having a slow lunch with beautifully complimenting wines got us to relish the efforts involved. The cheese, cured meats and the accompaniments we received to take with us was lovely too. We brought the 2 matching wines before heading back. The next day we had a slow start, enjoying the Church Lane Accommodation, before going to the Wine Tour and Taste at Brown Brothers’. Rosa was warm, welcoming and knowledgeable in guiding us through our tasting, with great placement to help us take better note of the differences and enjoying the complexities of well made wine. We purchased more wine that we selected from the tasting, that we wanted to share with friends and family. We thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our weekend in Milawa, Brown Brothers collaboration with Church Lane Accommodation - Luxe Escape. We are especially grateful to the people that made our experience wonderful - Sam, Colin, Henry and Rosa.

We visited here during a nice little day out and had the degustation for lunch, it was a really nice experience and the winery is very pretty, especially with great weather like we had on our visit. The two staff members ( 1 male & 1 female ) who took care of our table were very lovely and accommodating and we received a lovely gift for a recent special occasion which was a very kind finish to our lunch. I really appreciated the extra effort put into accommodating for my nut allergy, I was served my own servings seperate to the others which made me feel very comfortable and safe. Lovely place to visit.

THANKYOU! We recently visited Brown Brothers Winery where I organised a surprise proposal. The team at Brown Brothers were absolutely amazing helped organise photographers, decor and made sure all the staff were in on the surprise. It couldn't have gone better! A special thank you to Dominic and Taylor, who went above and beyond to make our day so memorable and accommodated us so well. The venue is stunning, the atmosphere is incredible, and the food was absolutely delicious. We highly recommend visiting Once again thankyou for making our day so special and one we'll never forget!

Lots of wine styles. Pick 5 for tasting for a fee. Talk nicely and you'll probably get one or two others to taste. Standing and seating tasting. Restaurant. Indoor and outdoor shaded seating. Bean bags in the garden. Popular for dressed up hens parties.

I have had the best day. My birthday and i felt so special. Brown Bros Milawa has always been a favoured destination for me but today, the best. The staff, the food, the wine...nothing was wrong. Everything was ideal: good food, good wine and great service. Service staff are what sells a venue and the staff here today were so friendly and helpful and knowledgeable. My kind of people. I liked every bit of of the menu and recommend them to everybody. Cheers and thanks for helping to make my day so special.

Pretty little cafe with a cheese shop next door offering free cheese tasting. However the brie we bought was already moldy and the other one was nothing like what was offered at the tasting. Spent $15 for a small slice of brie that went straight into the bin. Reading other reviews it would seem that people have a similar experience with out of date cheese. Very disappointing and would not recommend to anyone!

There’s a bakery, a cheese shop, and a restaurant here. You can sit outside on the lawn under the trees, and the shop provides picnic mats for customers who purchase something. Just watch out for the shop’s cats sneaking through the door! The cheese shop offers tastings in the morning, around 9:00–10:30 AM, with more than 10 varieties to try. I especially liked the buffalo milk cheese and the King Rover Gold Cheese, which are the shop’s specialties. They’re soft, mildly salty, and have a lovely smoky aroma.

What's not to like about this place? Awesome service and free cheese tasting experience ... Borrow a blanket, cheese platter and knife ... get your favourite cheese and some wines on the lawn ... 👌👌👌

So many cheeses, lots of cheese related items, chutneys, preserves and pickles. We had a free cheese tasting, the staff were so very friendly and entertaining. Very knowledgeable about the cheese too. Thank-you for a lovely experience. My two favourite cheeses of the few we purchased were the Cooper and the David Brown.

Unfortunately, the King River Gold cheese we purchased was a huge let-down — mold was clearly visible on many parts of it, it had a strong unpleasant smell, and the surface was slimy. Straight into the bin it went, along with the $15 we paid for it. Judging by other reviews, this isn’t an isolated case, with many mentioning out-of-date products. Very disappointing and would not recommend to anyone

After trying their cheeses at the Pinot X Mold festival this year, when we saw the sign for the factory whilst driving down the Hume, we had to stop in. This place is dangerous as all their cheeses are delicious and we ended up spending an ungodly amount on cheese. The cafe seems like a great place to go with a group on the weekend.

Cheeses Christ this place is heavenly. We had a cheese tasting and our cheese guide Anna blew us away sampling the 12 cheese varieties on offer. We purchased a bag full of amazing Aussie cheeses and now die happy having tasted these delights.

A great surprise find on our road trip. Not listed on attractions so someone needs to rectify that for sure. A fantastic tasting of their whiskies. Great range of flavours. Cafe available as well as chocolate shop. A big venue available for functions.

We visited Corowa Distilling Co. as a large group for lunch, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The service was fantastic - friendly, attentive, and incredibly accommodating for our group size. The food was absolutely delicious. And of course, the highlight for many of us was the whisky - smooth, rich, and expertly crafted. Highly recommend a visit whether you’re into great food, great drinks, or both!

Very fun! Kids made their own freckle chocolates, and they also had hot chocolate! Adults had latte, and coffee. Absolutely amazing!

Had brekkie this morning at Corowa Distillery – absolutely outstanding. The eggs Benedict was bang on: rich hollandaise, perfectly poached eggs, and I added a side of halloumi and chorizo that really hit the spot. Service was spot-on – friendly, fast, and welcoming. The setting inside the old Flour Mill is packed with history and charm, and the atmosphere is super relaxed. On top of that, they’re making some bloody good whisky – well worth a try while you’re there. Top-notch food, cracking whisky, and a brilliant place to kick back. Can’t wait to come back for round two!

Lovely relaxed court yard. Dog friendly. Meal was great.

We showed up late, and the guy gave us a whiskey tasting abd he didbt have to, too many! Whiskeys actually very good, abd right up there with the best in the world in my humble opinion. I havent been that impressed with some of the highly touted Australian whiskies, but these guys seriously know what they are doing. A fantastic venue, will definitely do the tour next time. Do yourself a big favour and dont miss this if youre in Corowa, the towns best attraction by a long way

We returned here after a few years and was pleased to see that the service is still amazing. Really freindly and helpful staff. The breakfast at the Cafe is amazing. Also nice to see the whiskey range has grown with a number of cheaper options available.

Excellent wines, excellent staff and service and wonderful grounds. We stumbled across this winery and decided to visit based on the great reviews. Safe to say it didn’t disappoint and we will definitely be back. The cheese boards also looked amazing!!!

Visited Cambells Wines and had an unforgettable experience. The main highlight, of course, was their outstanding wine — an incredible selection, especially the reds, full of richness and character. We also enjoyed a beautifully prepared cheese and meat platter, rich in variety and flavor. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, with warm and professional service. A truly special place for wine lovers!

Very good winery. Wide range of wines to taste and sample. Good location. Staff were friendly and helpful. Chairs and tables around the place. Good sized car park. Prices were quite reasonable. Well worth a visit.

Campbell's Wines is set in stunning gardens on the edge of Rutherglen. The cellar door offers complimentary tastings, a wine club, and local produce. Blended wines represent something unique. For an earthy experience meander through the barrels or sit by the fireplace in Winter.

We had a lovely friendly young lady service us . Very helpful and a nice experience on Sunday. Beautiful gardens and buildings.

Great family owned winery, with interesting selection of wines. Muscats were superb. A stroll amongst the any wine barrels was a wondrous experience.

Wow! Amazing wine and amazing staff (we visited on Fri 3rd Oct). So impressed with the quality and range, and we have been to 100’s of wineries in Europe & Australia. Well done guys.

Lovely Winnery. Classic buildings and a super restaurant. We stopped by for a Pizza Lunch in the ordinary restaurant, which was great, nice environment and tasty food at a fair price. But there is a premium full service restaurant as well for special occasions. 😎👍👍👍👍

All Saints Estate is a classic winery experience with a modern twist. Cellar door Tastings are $15 per person, or you can enjoy a whole glass in the restaurant for roughly the same. There's an enticing menu inspired by local produce. Picnicing is encouraged in the formal gardens. There's an enticing line up of entertainment if you want to make a weekend of it. A destination worth seeking out.

I had a terrible experience here. There are so many other wineries in the area that could be recommended before All Saints. I popped in to purchase a Mother's Day bottle. I purchased a single, mid-range bottle from the cellar door. The disdain and indifference my purchase was shown left a very sour taste. I stood there, awkwardly waiting to pay, for an eternity, while the server chatted with a customer about maybe joining the wine club. Every other winery I attended in Rutherglen and surrounds was a warm and endearing experience.

Lovely stop for wine tasting and looked after perfectly by Robin. Great host who was friendly, welcoming and professional. She made the experience for us. Thank you Robin. Very nice set up and great wines.

We stopped by for a quick lunch and look around, what a beautiful estate, and our pizza we all shared was just delicious, best base dough I have ever tasted. We paired it with a Pinot Grigio, just perfect. Could had sat by the lake there all afternoon. Definitely will be back.

Wonderful winery- well with a visit - buildings and garden are stunning. Easy parking Band has a Tesla charge point Wine is great quality and for me too pricey No bargains here - warning if u want to eat book in advance

08/25 2013 Durif. Liquid velvet this wine has cellared perfectly & well worth the wait, smooth & full of body. Thanks to all who created this vintage, an absolute masterpiece.in a bottle

Great local products! We found Pepo farms while on our trip to Bright a few years ago. Since then, we have loved their pumpkin seed oil so much, we have taken it to Guatemala, Chile and Spain as presents to our family. They have all loved it! We also love the chocolate covered walnuts with turmeric and their new macadamia oil. Not the cheapest but the quality is soo worth it. We stop on our way to bright every time we get a chance, but have ordered online many times. We are loyal customers and, highly recommend their products.

We stopped off here while riding the rail trail and were glad we did. We both enjoyed tasting the products - really friendly spot to stop. Our favourites were the lightly salted pumpkin seeds, the chocolate coated ones, the turmeric chocolate walnuts and the pecan oil. Really delicious - will definitely be ordering more online.

Loved the products and the way of survey. Much helpful for knowing nutritional values.. variety of products even cold press oil is amazing... We were informed about and tested all the seeds and oil products too.. ample space for sitting and car park too...

Adorable little shop to visit! The girl who gave us a rundown of the products was friendly and knowledgeable. We bought the dark chocolate covered pumpkin seeds. Would recommend if you’re in the area 🎃🌱

Loved this shop with a huge variety of products including pumpkin seeds in various flavours, walnut products, oils, Jams, sauces. They have tastings of their products with lovely staff providing detailed information on their products. Whilst there was no access to the farm during our visit, they had a delightful little pumpkin and sunflower garden just across the road that people could visit. Overall a very good experience and recommended if you are in Myrtleford or surrounds!!

Great place! The staff are great. We just turned up unannounced, and they were so welcoming, despite having a huge tour group they still found time to give us a tasting session and explain everything about what they do. All the seeds and oils are so tasty, you’ll come away with lots of treats. Highly recommend.

Great pit stop with the family. Sun flowers are so pretty and there is a wide variety of oils, seeds and gifts to buy for loved ones. The owners are super passionate about what they do and have so much information to share. There is a tasting tour of there products, which are delicious! Thanks again for such an insightful and beautiful visit.

the whole historic zone in Beechworth is amazing ..courthouse ...telegraph station .. gold wardens house ...gold office ..along with the old gaol absolutely amazing must see when in the Beechworth area ...all dating back to 1850s to 1860s build during the Beechworth Gold rush period

We did the courthouse guided tour. It was worth the small fee, lots of interesting information and you could look at how courts were conducted during the 19th century. It's a beautiful old building and well worth preserving, it's our history.

A town packed with historic buildings and Ned Kelly history. Great forest parks. Not to be missed

Including the tour, guide, experience, grounds, exhibitions, the volunteers were incredibly knowledgeable staff & it’s excellent for all ages. Highly recommend 🙏❤️

Excellent, informative and balanced view of Ned's story within the context of the regional Victorian court system of the time. Three projectors display the story hugely magnified across the interior courtroom walls so you can truly be immersed in the history of the court building. Side rooms include the judge's chamber (where you can try on legal wigs and robes) and a magnificent law library full of ancient volumes. Very informative and helpful guide Mal answered all my questions and was very well-versed on the subject. A must for fans of Beechworth, legal and goldfields era history!

If you want experience the deeper history of Beechworth, then the Court house is a great place to start. Beechworth has an amazing number of little places you can take the kids or yourself to go and have a visit to learn about Beechworth. The court House is of course famous for its association with Ned Kelly, but it also is an amazing place to come and see a historic building, built in 1958 and was a working courthouse right up to 1989, this courthouse has been an interesting and integral part of the community just as much as the Beechworth Goal Has. I love how you can almost access nearly every room of the courthouse minus the lady's balcony and a storeroom. But the Library happened to be our favourite room, it was filled with old law books and just had that nostalgic feel about it, the kids loved the library and the holding cells. (They used to have an audio spill that used to play but that feature was not there anymore. It did make for a great way to experience the court room.) The kids love being able to explore and sit where the judge and lawyers would sit and they did a little court play of their own. It was cheap to get in costing us a family of 6 $10. you could pay a bit extra for a guided tour which would probably have been great. There were souvenirs you could purchase for reasonable prices. Accessibility: The courthouse is wheelchair friendly, and you can access most of the courthouse bar the cells I believe. The staff are welcoming and encourage all to come and take part in the history of Beechworth. Great place for kids and anyone to come and visit.

This place is fantastic! Cheap to visit. The court house is in original condition as it was on the last day is was used. Lots of interesting information to read. Ned Kellys trial began here in August 1880 before it was transferred to Melbourne. Don’t forget to go around the rear of the building where one of the old stable buildings still stand. Also the old stone lock up with would be terrible to be locked up in. The whole area is so interesting and next door is the telegraph office to visit as well.

Had an awesome time at the Old Beechworth Gaol tour! Graham was a great guide and really knew his stuff/made it super interesting. Loved the Kelly family stories, but also learned heaps about the gaol’s history. Wish there was an opportunity to keep looking after the tour.

We took the kids to the Beechworth Gaol during the school holidays. The tour was well priced and it was easy to book online. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer all of the questions from the group. We highly recommend the tour for all ages. It's a great part of the local history.

fantastic old goal...guided tours run almost every hour and is the only way to checkout the inside of the prison something to remember ...first tour at 10am .. HM Prison Beechworth was built on the site of Beechworth's first stockade. It was designed by Victoria's Public Works Department and constructed using local granite that was quarried with prison labour... Beechworth was one of nine panopticon prisons built in Victoria. Construction began in 1857 and the prison opened in 1860, though was incomplete and only had single cells for 36 prisoners. The capacity doubled when the building was completed in 1864. Beechworth initially housed male and female prisoners. Female prisoners were assigned washing and needlework for government departments. Between 1865 and 1881, eight executions were carried out at the prison.Ned Kelly served six months at the prison in 1870-71 for assault. He was again held there during his committal trial for murder in 1880. Kelly's mother, Ellen and two associates of the Kelly family also served sentences at the prison the late 1870s for the attempted murder of Constable Alexander Fitzpatrick. Twenty suspected sympathisers of Kelly were held in 1879 in an attempt to limit support to the Kelly gang. The prison's iron gates were installed due to fears there may be attempts to break the sympathisers out of the prison.

What a great tour! Very informative and fascinating to know the history. Our guide Peter was fantastic. I could have listened to him talk for hours. If only those walls could talk, we’d know so much more. Definitely a place worth visiting when coming to Beechworth!

Love the hands-on experience of visiting the jail 💗 was a bit cold so we got some food at the cafe and got a very informative book about the prison’s history from the cafe too 📚Love it, will definitely come back next year!!!

The tour guide was awesome, knew his stuff and history and loved telling the story. Gail only closed in the early 2000s so some infamous people looked up here. Kelly History deep with his Mum locked up for a few years.

Beechworth Gaol had not only the Kelly & gang incarcerated here but also Kelly's mentor & tutor - the "gentlemen" Bushranger Harry Power. Somehow Harry Power's tales are subsumed by Ned Kelly's but it is just as interesting. Other inmates here included a whole bunch of modern day tax evaders & Melbourne's infamous underbelly crims. The newer additions include the conjugal visits area in the gaolers yard as you make your way inside on the right & a swimming pool area - gated off on the left. I expected the Gaol to be bigger but it is small with about 110 to 123 inmates capacity. There is the heritage Kelly era wing, the newer ones plus the Hangman's room & the Noose. A group of us - pre-purchased online tix for the 10 am tour Sun 23 Feb recently. A huge crowd of almost 40. The next tour only had a handful - so perhaps this is a better timeslot. Free parking in front of entry gates & also side street. There is a Cafe Truck in the entry yard too & a nice reception re-purposed area & toilets inside before tour starts. Tour ran for 45 mins & Guide thankfully used audio speaker. Typical Oz humour delivered with full on ocker tones- which you wonder if overseas visitors understood. Exercise yard - with the metal mirror (you will find out why) is also the site of 1800s hard labour (breaking granite & carting it), the chain gang tales all made for the grim reality not only the gold rush lawless period but also the 20th century penitentiary system. You get more of the blood & gore penitentiary stories under the pentagonal wooden roofed & similar shaped guard room inside. The replica Kelly gang armour suite is lined up here (by this time it is an oft repeated sight for us having started the Kelly trail at Glenrowan.). For dedicated Ned Kelly & Harry Power stories - do the Ned Kelly Trail tour run by the Visitor's Centre. Beats me how the confined cells & dire deeds of yore can be re-purposed into arts, entertainment & hospitality...Takes it beyond the "dark" tourism into the 21st century enlightenment I suppose. One way of maintaining historical sites like this for future generations but the essence of harsh reality of colonial past would be lost surely. Whatever works to make it a viable site. Pentridge Prison is already a popular re-purposed hub but ..er..rrr..rr - it ain't for me.

Wonderful trip here. So peaceful and not to far away. My child loved it. Great experience

Great place to dip your toe into the water. Easy walk from the carpark.

With the visit when exploring the area. Beautiful views of the falls from the lookout point! Nice picnic area with WCs available. Due to injury we couldn’t explore as much as we would have liked, but there were lots of people walking around the rocks and falls below.

Easy walk to the fall from the parking. The view is spectacular and the breeze makes the heat go away. The rocks underneath the water are slippery but with proper shoes it is not too dangerous. A good destination for a day trip, with friends and family or solo trip.

Love these falls. Good chance to do some rock hoping. Had a blast here

a nice easy falls to get too ..nice amount of water going over it was well ...definitely worth a visit when in the area

A very short walk to view the falls which had l enough water gushing over them to make them look nice when we were there.

Great place to reflect and remember them there is construction work going on but it's no bother on weekends

This is a stunning destination where you can unwind and fully embrace the joy of being present. It's the perfect escape to refresh your spirit and soak in the beauty around you.

A beautiful spot whether your a tourist or a local. Great views of Albury/Wodonga. Most of all its our War Memorial site. I hadn't been there in 15yrs and what a change. It's more than a monument. There are plarks for all the different wars Australians have fought at. The ANZAC Day area is all done in exposed concrete and the monument is shining in bright white. Picnic areas are fantastic and there are many to choose from. The view right to the end of Dean Street always looks great. Beautiful site to visit as well at night.

Nice place to relax and reflect. Easily accessible by car. Public toilet available. Overlooks Albury.

Good area to visit if you stay for couple of days in Albury. You can either hike up or drive all the way up here. Parking around the Monument. Can have eye-bird view of Albury from this hill. Probably best during sunset or sunrise. Very well maintained with toilet facility and some tables and benches for resting or picnic. There are walks starting from this hill too but we didnt do any.

A really thoughtful military monument that is well worth the visit. Do yourself a healthy favour and take the walk up the hill from the township (you can drive up if walking is not an option for you). As well as the monument itself you get some great views of the Albury township and surrounds.

New park is coming along really well! Opening November 8th 2025.

What a charming little park! Colorful flowers and tall palm trees sway gently in the breeze, accompanied by the sweet scent of osmanthus blossoms. Locals can be seen relaxing on the grass, enjoying picnics with friends, or playing with their children—it's truly a lovely spot to unwind. The children's playground is a particular highlight, full of whimsical and imaginative features: ceramic sculptures, a dinosaur-shaped speaking tube, small animal-themed wooden seats, handpans, and tiny xylophones… There's even a fairytale-like restroom adorned with stained glass and a sculpted lizard winding around the exterior. It's truly a magical place.

I had the chance to visit this garden for spending some time alone in the afternoon, it is a very nice place for meditation and for photography. Lots of varieties and well maintained, free entrance.

It was beautiful. Manicured lawns and well tended plants and trees. Peaceful walking with my sister. The paths are flat and suitable for all abilities and wheelchairs. We looked at the children's playground and it was full of exquisite details for the children to explore.

Very eye-catching garden. So cleaned and well decorated. Best place to rest and relax with family.

Really enjoyed it here and on weekend it was quiet and peaceful it wasn't as big as I expected it to be but it was an amazing experience and it has something special about it it was easy to get to and find and it was free entry so nice and manicured

Thoroughly enjoyed our walk through the gardens, it was our first visit. Lots of stunning mature trees, had a great old world feel. We were there when the light show was on which was beautiful.

Small but well-maintained gardens. Free entry. Lovely rose garden. Very picturesque.

Two attractions are worth visiting. One is depiction of WW story through Hologram and second is the submarine control room, where you can actually use the periscope. Beside those, there are several other pieces of information. :)

I'd give it ten stars if possible volunteer run modest admission fee outstanding exhibit's interactive submarine control room

Awesome museum, which is not in the submarine like I thought it was 😅 It's close to it. Lots of history and cool things to check out.

Fantastic experience!! So much information and great displays. What an amazing story behind the submarine and the town's name. Thank you Beck for your help 🙂

What a cool place to stop at on your road trip to Canberra, Sydney or Melbourne. It’s got some truely awesome old submarines with a lot to explore as you wander the grounds. If you need a break on your road trip this is the perfect place for it, no matter if it’s for the photo op, a chance to stretch or a picnic in the park. Would love to go back and check out more of the museum portion of this exhibit however with the submarine being open all day every day, and the park too it’s an easy stop at any point on your trip.

Absolutely 💯 loved it ❤️ the kids and I loved every aspect of this ,how it is set-up in different areas but still so close , very Informative and the hologram room was "super cool" from my sons words lol

What a picturesque place to stop on your way to or from Sydney. We stopped here for lunch at the Holbrook bakery. Fantastic baked goods and delicious coffee, a must-visit for a snack. The Oberon class submarine is a fantastic place to learn about Australian and British naval history. Take a photo with the huge half-submerged submarine in the park. After this, you must visit the museum/visitors centre to take a walk through time. Stick around and watch the holographic history lesson in the centre's theatre. As of 08/03/22, the cost for an adult ticket to the museum is $7. Well worth it.

Beautiful campground. Totally infested with European wasps. Swarms of them when you park and then when you try and cook. Totally ruins it. Can’t imagine being allergic. Would be a nightmare.

It is very sad to see all the pines are gone because of the fire! But we are excited to see the new pines growing and looking forward to meeting them in 20 years later! This is such a beautiful place but a lot of wasp....very annoying

A must see attraction within the Tumut area. It's a easy drive from Tumut and the drive itself it quiet beautiful. There are forest drives along the way that you may want to explore as well. Just be cautious of the logging trucks as they frequent the same road. Highly recommend this attraction. Also its dog friendly and kid friendly.

Incredible place, magical forest and not crowded at all! It’s breathtaking to walk among those pine trees and it’s an amazing photo spot as well! The sad thing is that they are staring to cut down the trees on the opposite side of the road, but this part is so beautiful that they don’t have plans to touch it.

This was awesome particularly pre sunset and I guess for sunrise as well, we arrived 2hrs prior to sunset and the more experienced photographer's in the group were able to capture some stunning photos in the fading light. 👍

I loved the coolness and quiet in the Sugarpines walk. Very different atmosphere to anywhere outside in the middle of summer. I can't wait to get up there in winter. It's very contemplative and reserved a nice escspe.

Was told about this place by a friendly lady at the Information Centre and almost didn't visit. Decided to stop off and found it well worth it. Not too far off the main road, and the size of these trees and their regular arrangement was quite the sight. Wouldn't go out of your way to get here, but if you're already going past, this is a great place to stop for a quick wander (though keep in mind, it's a forest, so there are no facilities and you'll need to take all your rubbish out with you)

Excellent service and great staff knowledge of local area

Really impressed by the Aboriginal cultural display, as well as everything else they had there. Definitely worth a visit.

Great place, full of items for sale for local artists. Excellent display of indigenous arts and tools. Suprisingly, a Corroboree Frog tank. 😄

So helpful, popped in here for some camping advice and a map. Lovely woman behind the desk was very friendly and patient 😊

Wish I could give more stars for Alma. Incredible asset to the Northern Kozi. She was patient, kind and gave a few tips about places in the park. A wealth of knowledge, can’t wait to come back next season

Very helpful and helped me plan my 2 days in the area. Great local knowledge and information, thank you.

Great little visitor information centre full of brochures with staff willing to provide helpful suggestions. Check out the small gallery behind (next to the gym).

I and my family we all like our cricket 🏏, so we went to Jubilee Park, the day is nice 👍. As we walked around,'The Captain Walk' . To see the 47 bronze sculpture at Cootamundra. The Captain s Walk was planned and executed by the Cootamundra Shire Council (now Cootamundra- Gundagai Regional Council) with the approval of the Australian Cricket Board 🏏 (now Cricket Australia 🇦🇺). The first Australian cricket 🏏 team to tour England in 1868, Captain by Unaarrimim (Johnny Mullagh), the leading Aboriginal player. Stage 1, unveiled on 30 August 1998, comprised the likeness of Unaarrimim (Johnny Mullagh). Stage 2, comprising the remaining 30 Captains, was unveiled by the sculptor Tom Bass on 27th August 2008, the centenary of Bradman's birth barely a kilometres away. Stage 3, unveiled on 12 th March 2020, brought the walk up to date with the unveiling of three new busts - Shane Watson , Steve Smith, Tim Paine.

Remarkable tribute to Australia's cricket history. Set in a beaut park in this interesting nsw country town of Cootamundra. Probably needs to start adding some female greats as well!

Fantastic display & super tastefully done. Great stop off on a road trip to stretch the legs. The park where this is also has some lovely play equipment for the kids (both big and small) as well as clean bbqs & tables.

We found this gem by accident passing through on our way to Young. My hubby is a cricket fanatic and i have never seen such joy on his face as we walked through the sculptures of the cricket captains. In his words "the best stop and well worth a detour" Next to it is an awesome park for the kids. Public toilets and picnic spot. The whole town seems very cricket themed.

The Captains walk itself is interesting but it is also part of a great park with bbqs, shelters, playground, toilets. Great to amuse the kids whilst you appreciate the cricketing history. I learnt a few things as did my Dad and he knows way more cricket than I do. Parking is easy right out front.

Good idea for a small country town! Also encouraging for cricket fans. It is good to know a few more names and their achievements for Australia and the world of cricket. A nice short walk done in a beautiful park and they have all the basic well maintained amenities nearby!

Heaven for cricket lovers.. One of the best places I’ve ever visited in my life. Captain’s walk is a beautiful park with all the Australian Test Captains’ sculptures.. their records and stats engraved on each sculpture. Bradman’s Birthplace is about 3 minutes from here. A great historic place. People in Cootamundra are lucky to be part of this heritage. The park consists of bbq, children play area and a beautiful walking path.

Family gathering. Great walks and scenery. Learnt a little of the Chinese history during the gold rush. Very peaceful and serene. Water features, ducks, Chinese architecture, lots of plants and trees. Take a hat in summer . No entry fee .

Beautiful town. We visited lambing flat chinese park it was good no one around except us as its winter plus rainy day. Its worth a visit ❤️

Nice chilled place to visit and kill a bit of time. Worth visiting as it's well maintained and cared for.

Visited early on a weekday afternoon, we were the only ones there besides a couple of council workers. A quiet, calming & peaceful place to take a walk & take in the surroundings.

Amazing place to visit! It is so tranquil and peaceful, just a great place to unwind and let all the stress disappear from ur body! Well worth visiting for those who even live there to get away from the hustle and bustle!❤️

A complete and totally pleasant surprise. Such a beautiful lake with artistic monuments. Doesn't make up for the terrible history of 1800s anti (Chinese) immigration, but a fitting memorial.

Tranquil gardens good place to unwind has barbeques if you chose to have family picnic will need to watch little ones around water

Great to wonder around the homestead and gardens. I found the stables fascinating the stables are large and concrete mad for large horses. On open days these food and coffee in the gardens. Bring your camera .allow a couple of hours. Make a booking.

What an amazing perfect Australian made castle we have out at Greenethorpe New South Wales I had the privilege of attending an open day this gave us all a glimpse of the past . the perfect gardens the attention to detail that the volunteers putting in day and day out just open the house for a few days a year. A must for all to see and visit. Definitely stay in Cowra and travel down for the day

Our delightful journey into the countryside to explore our own family history led us to the stunning Iandra Castle—and what an unforgettable experience it was! The grounds and home are lovingly maintained by a team of dedicated volunteers who pour their hearts into preserving this incredible piece of living history. The gardens are beautifully established, and the castle itself is simply breathtaking—full of charm, stories, and wonder. It’s clear that so much care goes into keeping this special place open for the public. We were truly moved by the passion of everyone involved. Honestly, get your tickets, take the drive, and make a wonderful weekend of it. It’s a hidden gem well worth discovering!

There was a ticketed Open Day at the castle today. The gardens were beautifully presented. The rooms in the castle are stunning and you could see the clear difference between the rooms for the family and those for the servants. The volunteers do a great job both with the public and how they present the castle.

What a majestic old building originally sitting on 32000 acres of very productive land. Being ĺovingly restored to its former glory. Well worth a visit. It opens to the public at different times throughout the year

Beautifully manicured lawns and gardens surround the lovingly restored buildings. Steeped in history, this is a wonderful place to visit and definitely worth the trip. Full of old world charm, it’s a history lesson in itself. Be sure to take a wander through the grounds and enjoy the rose gardens.

We were blessed to visit the castle on a beautiful Autumn day. You can buy tickets online ($20 adults). Not as much a castle as a large manor house, this piece of Australian history is local legend. Well run, and supported by local groups such as the Lions Club who sold sausage sandwiches and drinks, local volunteers also gave interesting lectures about the history of Iandra Castle. You can tour the main house, stables and garden at your leisure. We brought a picnic lunch with us and enjoyed it on one of the ground level verandahs. On the day coffee was available from a van, and the Young Steam engine enthusiasts had their steam engines chugging away near the stables. A most interesting and enjoyable day soaking up the sunshine and Australian history.

Walked🚶‍♀️through here a while back. I enjoyed all the gift ideas that were on display in the centre, and I then looked at the information about the Cowra Breakout it was rather interesting.

Recommended to view the hologram presentation here at the visitor centre prior to making way up to the Japanese Gardens and Breakout site

Great story told so very well Really enjoyable

Great place to see had a great holographic 9 minute show on historical POW camp well worth visiting for and some local wines, jams, chocolate etc for sale. Information lady was quite forward wanting to help when u were just looking around, we would have gone to her eventually but she was a little forward to get your attention! She gave us information quickly and accurately then we went on our way!

Great place to stop. Very informative.

A must do. The hologram display on the breakout was so well done. So educational.

Fantastic van park the place is in immaculate condition so clean and we'll maintained. One of the few parks that is pet friendly added to all this is it's terrific location right in town.

What a beautiful place. So serene, well thought out. Everything was in full bloom. Ducks were in there splendour. We even saw some ducklings Finished our afternoon off with a drink and snack from the Cafe.

A beautiful, tranquil experience! It is a must do attraction if you are visiting Cowra. I'm a local, and love taking my visitors and kids to the gardens. There's ducks and fish to feed, and lots of lizards to spot along the way. Highly recommended!

I love this place so much that I've bought a yearly ticket. I'm looking forward to seeing each season. It's a lovely drive from Canberra through Boorowa and great for my dogs. The staff are wonderful; so friendly and helpful. It's a pleasant overnight trip on a weekend.

This was a wonderful experience to walk around these beautiful manicured gardens. They took you to another world. Great service in the cafe with great food options and then a lovely gift shop and our dogs were welcomed to join us.

This is a lovely and serene garden that is well worth visiting. It is bigger than I expected, but not too big to be explored in 1-2 hours. You can also set up your picnic rug and spend the afternoon here. There is a cafe as well, up front.

Lovely and tranquil garden and not too busy. Good gift shop and cafe both of which are not over priced. Highly recommended.

If you love flowers this is the place for you. There is plenty of parking for cars & caravans, clean facilities, gift shop and cafe. The gardens are easy to walk around with plenty of spots to stop and enjoy the view.

Great spot to learn about fossil discovery in area, amazing staff who were excellent at explaining museum.

Age of Fishes Museum at Canowindra is well worth the stop. A terrific glimpse into the past, when fishes dominated the once inland seas. The fossil collection is a real eye opener and the result of many years of dedication putting it together. Kids with any kind of interest in science will love it. Friendly staff make it all the better experience.

If you have any interest in palaeontology or fish, then this is a must visit. If you have kids interested in dinosaurs, then I can highly recommend it as there's many interactive activities for kids. Even if you just have a casual interest in natural history it's worth a look.

Great museum covering prehistoric Age of Fishes. Best of only two similar museum in the world. We came to Canowindra only because of the museum. Exposition includes only small part of fossils discovered near by. Display is very interesting and informative. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed the visit.

Loved this museum could get really close to the exhibits. Staff were amazing, super friendly. Could bring my dog in with me (dog is small Jack Russell). Spent an hour and a half. Unexpected and interesting attraction in a small town.

A wonderful museum with very important artefacts. Staff were very helpful and very lovely. A lot of interactive exhibits. Gift shop was surprisingly well stocked and also interesting. Worth visiting Canowindra for!

What an amazing museum! Seeing such complete, ancient, rare, large, fossil fish was amazing . You are allowed to touch them giving a unique, hands on experience. The staff ween so helpful and knowledgeable to help my family understand everything. The displays had easy to understand descriptive texts to help as well. With tv monitors showing what these fish and life was like almost 400,000 years ago way before the dinosaurs. There were 3 large sections plus an outdoor area full of info including timelines going back to the beginning of the earth and so the beginning of life. This helped us all place how these armoured fish evolved along with dinosaurs, mammals etc etc all the way to humans. This is a truly world class site!

Good to those who enjoys nature and wants to do swimming as well❤️❤️ must to visit. Felt fresh amd refreshing. Child friendly environment as well.

A lovely place to relax, get your feet wet and meet friendly locals, both human and bird variety. Not too far out of Orange. Accessible and plenty of parking

Orange doesn’t have many destinations, so I end up coming here almost every week. This is the best spot! I love the view—it’s amazing and it’s free. No wonder people keep coming; it’s the perfect place to relax when you’re feeling tired.

Relaxing place to have a get together. It’s a great place to walk, run or rest. You can cross to the other side of the lake by walking on the Dam. Lovely spot. Toilets, BBQ, Kids playground available. Parking plenty

A great spot in the summer. Fast to get to and plenty of parking. Not crowed out. Swimming was great. Water was refreshing but not cold. Swim platforms are anchored a short distance off the beaches. There is clean sand and grass perfect for picnics. A kiosk is available for coffee, cold drinks, snacks and ice creams. The dam is perfect for swimming with the ducks.

Was so nice to find this lake. A little beach area on both sides of the lake. Everyone was there swimming, paddle boarding. Great walking area over the bridge and to the other side of the lake. Also a tea house was there. Had a good variety of choices of food and snacks.

Beautiful lake. When we visited it started raining so could not finish the walk. I saw people enjoyong BBQ and swim in the lake. Great play area for kids too.

This place is amazing, I am a certified Chardonnay hater but theirs is fantastic! The first time I’ve ever ordered a glass of Chardonnay in my life! Plus the atmosphere was beautiful and the cheese plate was generous and delicious. Awesome staff, awesome place to spend a sunny day. Would give them an extra star if I could!

Today we had a great experience and time at Heifer Station just outside of Orange. The wine tasting was very good, just the right amount of information without anything pretentious and best of all we were left alone with the wine we were tasting at the moment so we could relax and discuss it privately. Their wines are superb and well worth the visit. The wine tasting notes had a very humorous touch which made them even more interesting to read. We also had the cheese platter which was very generous with a great selection: goats cheese, aged cheddar and a Brie, almonds, figs and a delicious relish. We had a great chat with the manager, Chewy, giving us the history of the original shearing shed converted into their tasting room as well the original old Cobb & Co stables beside the shed. It is definitely a great place to go even with young kids as there is a huge outdoor area with farm animals and a sandpit full of toy diggers.

Completed a wine tasting with a large soccer crew. Staff were friendly , and accommodating. Had a wine tasting and got the cheese and children's platters which were super cute.

What a find! So glad we visited Heifers Station. Amazing whites and super welcoming staff (massive shout out to Holly!). This place is perfect for couples, groups, paw parents and kids. We’ll be back!

We had a wonderful experience at Heifer Station ( our second visit there). The wines were absolutely exceptional—each variety showcasing remarkable depth and character. The staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making the tasting experience both enjoyable and informative. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, creating the perfect setting to savour each sip. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy excellent wines and outstanding hospitality! Both Greg and Chewy were terrific hosts. Thanks. Bill & friends

The wine tasting at Heifer Station is a must when visiting Orange. The property is gorgeous and we loved visiting the animals on site after our tasting. Jordan was very knowledgeable, easy going and made the experience fun. Didn’t have the kids with us this trip but they would have loved the sandpit. Highly recommend.

An amazing winery! We went unfortunately on a very wet rainy day, but the staff made our experience so wonderful and warm with a hot fire place inside! Jordan took such great care of us, and was so knowledgeable on the wine region of Orange. Beautiful wines, and a surprisingly great house gin! We will definitely be back.

Cook Park is an easy 10-minute walk west of the Orange CBD via Summer or Kite Streets. Cook Park embodies the seasonal colours of Orange all year round. Summer's arrival brings gardens of stunning and vibrant coloured roses. From February to April, hundreds of begonias bloom in the 'Blowes Conservatory', and in Spring, a burst of colour arrives with masses of tulips and daffodils. A great picnic spot as well with ample playing areas.

Beautiful park for a relaxing day out! The scenic walking paths wind through plenty of gorgeous spots, with lots to see along the way. There are toilets and plenty of rest areas, plus a great playground if you’ve got kids in tow. The highlight for me was the group of friendly ducks who decided to follow me for part of the walk, absolute charmers! A lovely place to spend an afternoon.

Beautiful. Such an evocative old world type of park. Interesting old aviary. The greenhouse area unfortunately was closed

Beautiful park with huge trees, a duck pond, plenty of seating and gorgeous shrubs

Large park with lots of seating. A pond with ducks even, huge trees to marvel at also Flowers in winter mode but one can see potential. Greenhouses not in operation. Handy arts and craft store. Purchased a phone/ipad style mount. Works a treat. Enjoyable stop with walk around. Lots of street parking mid afternoon. Bit cool this time of the year but nonetheless worth the effort.

This is a historical park here in Orange and is a must visit. I will be returning many times as the park and its beauty changes daily. There is so much wonder and history to enjoy and be amazed by . Orange is known for its seasons, and this park is a fabulous place to partake and enjoy nature in all its glory. Add this to your daily walks or at least a weekly visit as this garden awakes from its winter slumber.

One of the best spots in Orange! Beautiful gardens, peaceful atmosphere, and perfect for a relaxing stroll or picnic. Always a favourite.
