A wonderful little gem of a museum! Pun fully intended. We came with our kids on a weekday during school hours and it was pretty quiet. We had lots of space to explore the beautiful old rooms filled with spectacular mineral and fossil specimens. The displays are laid out with great visual appeal and well written educational information. We greatly appreciated the hands-on experiences for small children especially the microscope and dinosaur toys. Also the picnic table in the courtyard for a bit of morning tea before we entered. Staff were friendly and helpful, bathrooms clean and well maintained. Overall a lovely experience. I would recommend about 1.5-2 hours.

Wealth of history living in this cozy and compact museum! Awe inspiring displayed of collections around the country and globe! Quite a fascinating place where kids/adults in fact all ages people can learn about the past. We spent quite a long time inside the museum and learned a lot! Every pieces of collection has its own unique history and features. A must visit place for everyone! Highly recommended.

Such a great museum with permanent fossil / mineral displays and other cool temporary exhibitions. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and clearly love this place. Shout out to the descriptions of tumble rocks and crystals at the gift shop, factual and science-based instead of wishy washy energetic 'benefit'.

A fascinating variety of minerals despite the small size, they had an engaging perioidic table and how they excavate the minerals, perfect for primary school aged kids.

Loved this museum! Our grandsons loved the T-rex skeleton (they were huge!), the fossils and the insects and animals in amber. I loved the displays connecting the periodic table to modern living; they are an inspired way to show how these minerals are used today. The mineral displays were beautifully presented with good information.

Very modern and interactive museum specifically tailored for kids. Stunningly set in an old church. The T-Rex skeleton was fantastic, and so many things to touch and feel, and history of the earth video was great. Only a few small rooms here though, and an hour is enough. Definately worth a visit though.

Very nice small museum. It's small but it has more than enough exhibit to satisfy ones curiosity.

Best place we visited near Bathurst! A fantastic place with so much to look at. We had a good talk to the owner as well which made it even more interesting. He tells us that they will be opening the basement level with the kitchens very soon. I’d be delighted to go back.

A timeless gem in Bathurst! Abercrombie House is one of those places that completely transports you to another era. From the moment I stepped onto the grounds, I could feel the history and character of this magnificent 19th-century mansion. The Scottish Baronial-style architecture is stunning. Every gable, tower and stone detail tells a story. We were blown away by how beautifully the Morgan family has preserved the estate since the 1960s. The rooms are filled with antiques, period furniture, and little touches that make you imagine what life was like here over a century ago. The gardens and surrounding grounds are lovely, peaceful, green, and perfect for a slow stroll or photo moment. I can tell this place is looked after with real care and passion. Whether you’re into architecture, history, or just want a relaxing and memorable outing in Bathurst, Abercrombie House is an absolute must-visit.

A beautifully preserved house with a lovely collection of antique and historical items. It offers a charming glimpse into the past and is definitely worth a visit. We even spotted a beautiful peacock and two friendly cats during our visit — a delightful surprise that added to the charm of the place!

An absolute must see! Had a great day out visiting Abercrombie House, lots of history and great coffee on site. Highly recommended!

Most interesting place we visited around Bathurst. Will be even bone, since we were speaking to the owner and he said that the basement level - all the kitchens and associated - have been cleaned up and will be opened up, and probably are by now…

A beautiful house in Bathurst being restored by a passionate couple. Some rooms haven't been done yet but most have & they're lovely. The more people who visit means more work can be done! Worth a visit & a stroll around the grounds to meet the resident peacocks & see the vintage car collection.

Beautiful house with so much history, so glad we went definitely recommend a visit

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.

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.

In your travels North and South up and down the Newell Hwy if your never stopped and taken the time to divert off the hwy to visit the Parks Observatory you are doing yourself a disservice. If your got kids it is especially worth while. Only a hand full of Km north of Parks and about 6km down the side road will get you there. Free entry with most of activities designed and aimed at the kids around 9-14yrs. Lots of photos and interesting information panels for the adults and hands on activities for the kids. The gift shop is A1 with good prices for a wide variety of interesting items to buy. The actual 'dish' is huge and most impressive and you will be amazed. It is still in operational use presently. There is a guided tour available but we didn't do that. This side divert will easily chew up a couple of hours and both you and the kids will appreciate getting out of the car far a very interesting tourist attraction. Got a Cafe there as well. Free and ample close by parking including long vehicles and free entry. Make sure you visit the outside two opposing dishes 70mts apart where if you face into one dish and whisper your partner can hear what you say facing into the other dish. All in all a great little place to visit that will consume no more than two hours of your time and break up your drive. Highly recommend.

Great 3D movie to inform the public about our planet & solar system. Great displays and of course a view of the dish. Plenty of gifts & merchandise with space in mind. A cafe available. Movie was a cost, but everything else was free to view.

Great place to look around to explore and learn some history. If you haven't seen the movie The Dish, I suggest you watch it and learn more about what it does. It's free to go in and check everything out. The whisper dishes out the front are great. You start whispering in them, and the other person over at the other didh can hear you as though you were standing beside them. Awesome place to visit

This is my 3rd time here and it just blows my mind. Lots to see, but unfortunately the cafe/ food is now closed, very disappointed as i would have liked a coffee while enjoy the structure rotate today. Must must must do everybody!!

Great stopover on the way to Dubbo! We saw the 3S experience which was only $16pp and we didnt even know Australia had a Observatory like this! Such a great experience

Nice little stop on the way through NSW. Interesting information center and GOOD doughnuts! Worth the stop if you are passing through or if you are in to space exploration and the moon landings!

The museum is cool, they have the universes baby picture. My brother is jealous and wants to also visit.

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!

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.

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.

Such an an impressive display of cars and bikes. They have over 60 vehicles ranging from the early 1900’s to a 2015 Holden Maloo. There’s also a great souvenir shop as well as a die cast model shop. I highly recommend a visit to this museum.

This place is a must, it's a full personal collection of the most beautiful cars that I've ever seen. They started in 1961 when they bought their first T model for £25 (a whole weeks wage back then) and have just added to it as a passion of theirs. The couple who own this are selling it all and the building for retirement, so highly recommend going to see before such a beautiful collection is no longer

This is a really cool museum with some very nice cars and bikes and even a caravan. They have some very unique vehicles with very interesting histories that made it all the more interesting. I met the owner and his daughter, lovely people.

Definitely worth a visit. Plenty of vehicles covering over 100yrs of vehicles. So if you enjoy vehicles go visit and enjoy a walk through history

Absolutely terrific, 86 year old Bill generously spent half an hour with us and made the visit. The museum is a must before it closes for good.

a little gem ,well worth a look. great admission price too

Great selection of cars, bikes and other motorised vehicles. The Japanese funeral car was a particular highlight, especially seeing as Mr Mcfeeters himself showed us inside the back. I also really liked the sheep corner - glass cabinets filled with sheep paraphernalia of all shapes and sizes. Plus the strangest little gift shop. Sadly the cafe is permanently closed.

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.

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.

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.

An unforgettable 6-day trek (4 on horseback) - called An Alpine Easter Getaway - and by far my most authentically Australian experience so far. The owners are an incredible family who clearly pour their heart and soul into every part of this adventure. You can feel their passion from the very beginning, and the quality of the horse training is exceptional — I felt confident and safe from the very first moment, both around the horses and riding them. The trek is fully self-supported with pack horses carrying everything we needed for camp, food, and comfort. Meals were cooked over the fire, and everything was delicious — with great care taken for dietary requirements when communicated in advance. The landscapes were stunning, but what impressed me the most was the dedication, thoughtfulness, and hard work behind the whole experience. Absolutely recommend!

The ride, the location, the horses, the people were all fantastic!! Can't recommend this experience enough. Very organised and all rider levels catered for. I am a regular rider and was able to canter a few times, which was super. The less experienced were also able to enjoy a trot and canter with guidance and supervision. The horses are well cared for and in excellent condition :)

We had the most amazing time on our half day ride with Bogong Horseback Adventures! Our group was a mix of both beginners and experienced riders, and our two guides Ellie and Audrey made sure we all got the most out of the half day ride. The horses were all perfect and well suited to each rider’s abilities, and were amazing navigating the wet weather! We all can’t thank you all enough for our fabulous ride, and can’t wait to come back next time!

Attended Bogong Horseback Adcentages for a half day booking. Originally booked a 2 hour ride but upgraded to half day which was worthwhile. We were all novices but at the end of the ride we all felt so confident. The lead guide, Alley informed the group about the horses and general tips on control.This was repeated during the ride which made everyone feel comfortable. I love animals but wasn't big on horses. After the ride it all changed and it turned out to be one of the best experiences to date. My wife and son are all hooked and we cannot wait to return. Highly recommend. The area and views to the snow capped mountains made it perfect.

What an experience, just completed our second half day ride with the Spring Spur team and it was breathtaking. The horses are brilliant and the guides are talented, friendly and great at giving instruction. From demonstration to assisting while out on the track I felt so comfortable and confident, continually learning from the tips and tricks given. The first time we came we stayed in the great onsite accommodation and enjoyed a phenomenal meal that I can still remember over 7 years on. Thank you Lin and the Spring Spur team for welcoming us back, cannot wait for the next time. P.S. should also mention a thank you to Wallace for lugging me around too!

We did a day ride. I am an extreme novice. Wallace made me look like a seasoned professional. This was a gift for my wife. We both thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff were friendly and extremely competent. The sandwiches were amazing, as was the lemon cake. The weather really did its best for us. All in all, a memorable day. Thank you all.

We did the half day ride and had such a lovely experience. The girls were very accommodating. Such wonderful breathtaking part of the country too

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.

Very interesting shop full of exciting produce from around the nearby townships. There's samples of jams, relishes, etc, for you to try before you buy. Highly recommend this place

I just wanted to share how much I love Rich Glen! I recently bought their Lemon, Ginger, Honey & Olive Leaf cordial, and I can't get enough of it. It's so refreshing and delicious! It's great to support a wonderful family business like Rich Glen. They truly make the best products! I also, use their home and Skin - Body products 💕

Our specific trip to Yarrawonga made this an essential stop. We visited the Echuca store and loved it so much. This didn’t disappoint either. Yummy meals really were a treat for us to take home and cook and of course we bought the wonderful olive oil staff very helpful. and friendly I like the layout of Echuca store better where the skincare section is altogether under the one roof with the store.

Can't rate the quality and service from this family run business highly enough. We purchase regularly and have loved watching the success and growth of Rich Glen. So many beautiful items on offer, olive oils, condiments, produce, beauty products and so much more. Do yourself a favour and check out one of their stores, you will love it, or you can purchase online. Donna and the team organised our corporate gifts for Christmas and everyone loved them. We received so many comments on the presentation, quality and the extra touches. We love having access to so many beautiful, Australian made products and the level of care and service. Thank you and congratulations to Ros and her dedicated staff.

I have visited the store in Echuca a few times and I am always wowed by the clean, fragrant, inviting welcome of this store. The products; beauty and pantry feel so organic yet luxurious. Congratulations on an amazing business model. Inspiring.

Purchased a bottle of “Hot Cross Bun Gin Liqueur” when I visited the store at Yarrawonga on 9/3/2024 for $49. I assumed that I was getting a good deal. This week’s Aldi catalog displays the same product for $24.99. What a bargain??? Maybe I will purchase two bottles for that price.

The Zesty Lime Olive Oil Dressing is delicious over baked vegetables & honestly is so good I could drink it. So fresh.

Buzzing with a great vibe for a Saturday night dinner date. Real food. Tasty and satisfying. Was good to have the option of table qr code ordering, and at the bar, as our phone wasn't working. Enjoyed Fainters dubbel and Porter stout 👌😋

Bright Brewery was such a great find! The food was super tasty — the menu is your classic pub and bar-style stuff, but the quality was really solid. What stood out to me was the view: it looks out onto a walking track, which made the whole vibe feel relaxed and refreshing. There’s both indoor and outdoor seating, so you can pick depending on the weather. When we were there, they even had a live performance going on, which added a fun touch. The décor is quirky and cool — I think the lights were made from old beer kegs, which was a nice detail! Highly recommend for a chill afternoon or casual night out.

With Amazing drinks , lots & lots of outdoor & indoor spaces. River flowing next door, park for children, this is the place to be in bright . Be it a Sunday brunch or Friday party .. everything is wonderful. Great staff .. amazing wood fired pizzas & live music .. just excellent ambience . What more you can ask for a chilly snowy Sunday .

Loved it so much we returned! Staff were amazing, friendly and helpful. Pizzas are huge, cauliflower is yummy and the sausages and mash was delicious! Local wines are great along with an excellent range of beers. We will come back... Thanks

Good place for a meal the meals are quite big so could possibly share mains between 2, good selection of drinks ( a bit self explanatory) , overall food but the food was lacking a bit of flavour and uniqueness there is alot of pulled pork and the pork belly was average. If this is fixed it has potential

Stopped in for dinner the night before we headed up to Hotham. The service was excellent, very friendly, quick on food and drinks delivered to our table. I had Butchers Block special. It was a 500g T-Bone and my fiancée had the Pumpkin Pizza. Definitely will be back next time we're passing through.

Always a great experience. Great beers… core range is great but they also have some great seasonal hazy, dark and oat cream ales. Staff are always friendly and helpful (especially with heaters for Queenslanders) and it’s a lovely view during autumn with the leaves changing colour. The hero board is amazing for rubs and wings… but you will need 3/4 people to finish it unless you’re Homer Simpson. Pizzas are also great!

Awesome place to visit this time. Colourful and vibrant. Walking two sides of the river with so many colours and the water sound is heart melting and great experience

My husband and I did this walk today with our baby in a carrier, it's a pretty easy walk, reasonably flat with some steps. It's a really great scenic walk, I'd highly recommend it for anyone visiting bright. Their is a rocky part to cross but it looks worse than it is, it was pretty easy to get across.

The Canyon Walk in Bright is a delightful riverside trail that offers a perfect blend of natural beauty and historical intrigue. Following the Ovens River, this 3–5 km loop features lush forests, two suspension bridges, and remnants of 19th-century gold mining activity. It's an easy walk suitable for most ages and fitness levels, with options to shorten or lengthen the route as desired. Whether you're visiting in spring to see wildflowers or in autumn for vibrant foliage, the Canyon Walk is a must-do for anyone in Bright.​

Excellent loop walk close to town. Out one side of the canyon and back the other.

It was a bit difficult to understand where the start point was, so had to wander around a bit. But other than that, it's a really nice and easy walk to do, Stunning Canyon views and reminders of the Gold Rush.

It was such a beautiful walk , we visited at the end of April and the trees were changing colour , the air was crisp in the morning, There's two walks , one shorter than the other . Highly recommend this walk , very peaceful.

Quite a peacefull walk with a Gr8 Camping Ground on one side and the Ovens River . If u r heading up2 Myrtleford, Porepunkah or Bright l highly recommend this walk . On the Bright Shopping Centre side there is a Terrific Walking Track that l also recommend. Enjoy Folks

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.

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.

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.

Unusual encounter in the High Country! Meet the aging lions, meerkats, bison, monkeys etc plus friendly deers, peacocks & other critters that roam free within the wide expanse of fenced off premises. Entry prices are very reasonable for the variety you find here. It is all very open & casual - the long, beaut tree tunnel avenue with water buffaloes, bison & horses roaming on either side of fenced paddocks gives a bit of a thrill of what awaits here. Kitsch & rather whimsical safari park of the unusual kind...The backdrop of Mt Buller & Mt Stirling plus the surrounding distant ranges gives this zoo a mystic, other worldly charm. Interesting wrought metal sculptures scattered around adds interest & a Melb Tram greets you on entry! Parking is rather limited but I guess the long driveway is the overflow car park. Two hours (at least) to hike around the large expanse, from one enclosure to the next all the while amused & entertained by the antics of the animals. Buy special feed for $3 to hand or spade feed some - a map of layout, species & what you can feed is listed & will be handed on purchase of entry tix. I opted out of feed & found that the critters were expecting it! 😁😁 Baleful glares from the Emus, Donkeys & Deers - how dare you two legged critter cheat us!! Followed around in anticipation by this cutesy trio of spotted deers... Next visit I shall not disappoint - promise! As for "just for the kids" typecast - get outta here!! I had an absolute ball...Watched up close the white lion getting a dental inspection, the mane wolf coaxed out of its den, monkeys interacting with keeper & every enjoyment that watching animal antics bestow. Weekday visit was so serene with only a few other visitors & my lucky timing coincided with an official inspection of the animals. Check website for other details & feeding time. Ice-creams, drinks, snacks & limited packed food is available at the small entry area cum gift shop. Without the funding of city zoos - I am impressed with the animal variety & care. Talk to the friendly staff & clear any concerns about animal welfare you may have. Signage & info could be updated. Gumboots are freely available if ground is wet & muddy - near the toilets. There is limited covered picnic & bbq area. High country has been a dry, parched country for a while now - so now (visited 21/5/25) is a great time to visit. Cooler weather, less buzzing beasties & with so much of manure (poop) everywhere, probably kinder scentwise too.. Pretty exposed, undulating terrain to traverse - so not sure about wheelchair or pram/stroller friendly. Will definitely visit again & put the word out there. This zoo has been here since 2000 & yet few Melb city folks who have visited Mansfield know about it... It is such a click worthy, picturesque setting that the zoo should entice visitors with "paint & sip" days.

We rented a house near this zoo. What can I say? Those were the best moments of my life! Starting from 5 in the morning, horses would come up to our little house! We fed them. And then there were the sounds of birds from the zoo. Since we rented this house to go skiing on Mount Buller, we didn't expect to be so close to this zoo. We visited it and were even more amazed. The people working there are so lovely, right to the core! Many wild animals, and they employ staff. Not everyone would be able to feed such animals as dingoes, lions, and crocodiles by hand. A worthwhile place. I recommend it 100%! We even bought toys at the entrance and exit so that the money would go towards feeding the animals. An amazing, genuine zoo where they love the animals!❤️

A magical day at Mansfield Zoo 🦁✨ Absolutely loved visiting this local gem! Getting up close to the majestic White Lions was unforgettable — with fewer than 120 left in the world, it’s incredible that this zoo is home to two. Though they’re in their senior years, hearing one roar live was a powerful moment I’ll never forget. 🦁💛 Mansfield Zoo may be smaller than the big city zoos, but it’s perfect for a relaxed day out with the little ones. The animals are friendly and approachable — from alpacas and deer to monkeys, camels, kangaroos, meerkats, dingoes, wombats, and more. 🐾🌿 Highly recommend for a peaceful, family-friendly adventure in nature! 📍 Mansfield Zoo, Victoria 🗓️ Great for weekend getaways 👨‍👩‍👧 Perfect for kids

Lovely place to visit near Mansfield or on the way to Mt Buller. Not often you see lions being fed, being able to chat to the people who run the zoo and get real insights. The animals are beautiful, there's wild deer and other animals wandering around. If you have kids, they have fantastic play spots in multiple spots to keep them busy. $50 for 3 of us, we did 1-4.30ish, was really nice. Definitely recommend, and would go there again.

We had a good day at the zoo, kids loved feeding animals. There were plenty of animals walking in open, lot of kangaroos, lamas, deer. There were 2 old white lions too. Overall we spent a good day!!

Great place to take the kids during school holidays. Enjoyed the keeper talks and watching the lions and meerkats get fed.

Omg this zoo is great.. The experience of been able to approach and pat and feed animals is awesome. The vibe was great and we had a ball!! Not a negative and I know funding is probably very tight but the BBQ’s need to be updated to push timer public ones But in saying that this zoo has a lot going for it and the BBQ’s work fine. In respect to this or healsville zoo this one is well above still

Super fun for the kids and adults. Some suggestions: -store front need some refurbishment -water need more cleaning and occasionally there is a dead fish floating around -need more chairs for people to sit down

Lovely place to catch some trout! $12 entrance fee per adult gets u a fishing rod, bait and instructions. You pay for what you catch Prices are clearly indicated They will clean and gut the fish for you free of charge. And you can use the bbq to cook the fish !

Broadie was such a wonderful character to deal with. When we arrived from Melbourne to Buxton he was so welcoming towards our family. He did a great job helping us out to fish the right size of salmon. Once we were done he did such a great job to clean and pack the fish. We were so touched by his kindness towards our kids - he gave them beautiful presents and kids loved them. Broadie and Buxton team we will definitely come back again. Highly recommended.

This place is great! Been twice now, they provide everything you could possibly need and prepare the fish ready to take home and cook. Its cheap to enter, pricey for the fish but worth it for the experience of catching it yourself. Lots of fish and almost guaranteed to catch something.

Fabulous and fun Trout farm with a toddler, he had an absolute great day. The staff at the front , he was amazing, and very helpful and showed my toddler how to clean and cut the fish and nothing was too much trouble for him. Thank again, and we hope to visit again soon :)

Wow, what an amazing place it is! One of my friends suggested this spot to me - a bug thanks to him.. 😊 I've attached heaps of photos and videos to help people know the beauty of this place.. You pay for the fishes you catch.. the rates are not bad.. as on 11-Mar-23, Salmon was about $32 ish per kg and trouts were about $23 ish/kg.. Only thing that I didn't like was they also charge an entry fee which extra to the fishes you catch - but can't reduce the stars for this.. The staff is excellent and well trained.. We'll be regular visitors here...

Spent half a day here with a group of friends and had a great time! Prices are fair and they clean and pack your fish for you. Just pay for what you catch. There trouts (rainbow and brook) and salmon to fish. Salmon takes a bit more patience as we found out! Everything you need to fish is provided. There are also barbecues that you can choose to cook up your catch!

A great display providing details and insights on the Vietnam War, a number of military items on display, worth a stop to visit and read all the panels of information.

A nice walk in the nature, there’s lots of trees and park benches. The walk looks quite new especially the bins, benches, and water tap. There’s lots of information to read up on the history of Australia’s participation in the Vietnam war. You can take the time to remember the lives and efforts of all the people and dogs who fought in the war. There’s many in depth explanations of Australia’s operations in Vietnam, and there are ranks and military weapons displayed.

Very well put together honouring all who served in the Vietnam conflict. Maps of Vietnam.

Great tribute for the Vietnam veterans, this memorial is well worth the visit.

One of the best Vietnam Veterans memorial that I have seen. Well, worth a look.

Absolutely excellent we loved it.

A very special interesting place to visit Definitely worth a visit Tickets are not required

Four Pillars Gin was not even in our original plan, but we were already in the mood after champagne and wine stops, so I thought, why not complete the circle with some gin? I am not exactly a gin person, but I have to say, this stop made me rethink that a little. The gin was great, yes, but can we talk about the duck pate? I had it after a full cheese fondue lunch at Chandon, and still managed to finish the entire jar by myself. It was creamy, flavourful and went so well with their crackers. Honestly, I would go back just for that pate. For the drinks, I ordered the gin tasting set which came with four different types of gin, served with tonic water on the side so you could mix to your liking. I got to try a few variations, but the one that really stood out for me was the Shiraz Gin. It had a nice depth and smoothness that I did not expect. Easy to drink and very well balanced. The place itself has a cool industrial chic vibe, very open and relaxed. Staff were friendly and made the tasting experience fun without being too formal. It did not feel rushed and we got to enjoy everything at our own pace. If you are in the area, even if you are not a gin lover, I say give it a try. You might leave with a new favourite and definitely with a full stomach.

Popped in on Friday around 5 p.m. and the place was absolutely buzzing. Happy hour kicked off at 6 with great drink specials, amazing cocktails, and a full house. The yuzu gin was incredible and the yuzu sour cocktail was even better. The staff were fun and friendly, and the whole place had a great energy. They also run a happy hour dinner on Friday nights, which looked awesome. Definitely the spot to be and probably my number one pick when visiting Healesville.

I had no idea that Four Pillars Gin originated in Melbourne! We stopped by after visiting the Redwood Forest to do a gin tasting and ended up learning a lot about the gin-making process. It was fascinating to discover how different spices are infused to create unique flavours. We also got to rate several distinct gin varieties and try some cocktails made with their different gins — each with fruity, coffee, chocolate, or smoky notes. The experience was really enjoyable, easy to access, and they even offer a membership with some great deals.

A nice place for an afternoon chill with friends or family over gin and some bar food. A small distillery to see the making of the Four Pillar gins. They have a small restaurant that let u taste their gin and cocktails (the cocktail flight is a must), and enjoy some finger food/ snacks. There is also a small shop to buy some merchandise and of course their famous gin to bring home.

Had an explosion of flavour for lunch before completing a gin tasting of 7 of Four Pillars finest Gins. The whole experience was absolutely amazing thanks to a charismatic young gentlemen by the name of Cooper. He educated us about all the traditional spices and infusions in gin making and what sets Four Pillars aside from the rest. His passion and love for what he does, along with his endless knowledge made for a wonderful gin filled afternoon. Cannot recommend Four Pillars highly enough for a visit for foodies and gin lovers. Simply a MUST when in Healesville hopefully you will be lucky enough to meet Cooper the legend himself. Four Pillars also have a nonalcoholic range which is also in a league of its own compared to other nonalcoholic spirits. Full of flavour and just as delicious.

My wife took me to Four Pillars for my 35th birthday and I have now fallen in love with Gin thanks to them 😍 Amazing place. Was served by David who gave us a wonderful experience with so many smiles, stories, and samples. Every Gin I tired was beauitful. Strongly recommend visiting the distillery. I'll be back soon I know it. Shop at the front is well stocked and very good prices.

This place was fun. Well worth the drive and if you’re a gin lover like me, it’s a must try. We had the G&T paddle and discovered a new gin, olive leaf, which is scrumptious so I’ll be going back and getting a couple more bottles. The snacks were good too. We had the fries and a tiramisu dip…so so good.

Wine tasting and lunch at Yering Station was one of the highlights of our Melbourne trip. I was delighted to try some delicious red wines and enjoy a wonderful lunch there. The beautiful surroundings, elegant décor, and friendly staff make it an outstanding restaurant and winery. Highly recommend.

I was really excited for this one. We went for the wine tasting on a beautiful sunny day, the kind of weather that makes you want to be outdoors enjoying the view. Unfortunately, the tasting itself takes place indoors in a fairly dim room with very little natural light, which felt like a real shame. With such gorgeous surroundings outside, it seemed like a missed opportunity to create something special. During the tasting, four different staff members poured for us. Three of them asked what we had already been served, which made the whole experience feel a bit disorganized and not as smooth or welcoming as I was hoping for. The wine pours also felt quite small -more like a sip than a proper tasting- and I think most people would agree after seeing the photo I’ve attached. Inside, the décor follows a pop-art theme with Andy Warhol replicas. Normally, I appreciate that style, but here it felt completely unrelated to wine, wine tasting, or the heritage of the vineyard. Instead of enhancing the atmosphere, it actually worked against the rustic, old-world vibe that the place itself naturally carries. That said, the outdoor area is stunning. The grounds are well kept, with a beautiful grassy area out front and a lovely lookout point that really makes you stop and take it in. It honestly left me thinking how perfect it would be if the wine tasting were moved outdoors, perhaps with a small kiosk or bar set up in the middle of the lawn. With the sunshine, scenery, and a glass in hand, that would transform the experience into something unforgettable.

You can't fault much here. The service, food and atmosphere is exceptional. However, there was a fault in the steak option that I paid extra for on top of what my parents had already paid for a 3-course meal. It might not seem like a big deal, but since I asked specifically for "true medium rare", not medium, which it ended up exactly being on my plate, that was disappointing, being such a high quality piece of meat. Other than that, it was an amazing lunch, and had me bursting at the seams. I could have just had the pork belly entree and pistachio dessert and been satisfied.

Had a great meal at Yering station. Great service beautiful views great menu and flavours. Everyone enjoyed every dish. Loved my prawn entree. The fish main was perfect. Steaks were cooked to perfection. Front of house Trixie was very professional. Wines were great. Deserts were delicious. Highly recommend will def return.

We had a very odd and dissapointing experience at the restaurant. We had booked lunch using a luxury escape voucher which included a main, choice of wine and two shared sides. The only positive was how well cooked the meats were and how tasty the wine was. Other than that, our experience was very strange. The strangest part or our experience was the use of potato off cuts in our roasted potato side - see picture below. I have never before seen potato fondant off cuts and bits of potato eye served to guests. It's really incomprehensible and unappetising. We ended up leaving the potato dish. The salad was also quite terrible - it literally looked like a Coles pre chopped salad mix that was topped with a few sprigs of dill and some goats cheese. The leaves were barely dressed and very plain tasting. Onto the main meals, which ended up being quite odd as well. The cuts of meat were very tasty and well seasoned. The biggest negative was the random pastry basket served with the pork and holding chopped apple. The basket was pale, undercooked and soggy. It didn't really add anything to the dish. The duck dish was also a bit odd with an undercooked cannelloni filled with pulled duck and cabbage. This was bland and underseasoned also. While both dishes looked pretty, they left much to be desired and not worth the cost or effort. Overall, we would not be back and we wouldn't recommend to others. There are much better choices in the Yarra Valley (and much better luxury escape deals as well). Be warned.

Beautiful Vinyard with celler door and restaurant. Simple elegant feels with vase space. We went to cellar door to get a cheese platter and a glass of wine as we arrived too early for our lunch booking. There are a small number of outside table for you to enjoy the cheese board and wine and it was super delicious. The celler door staff was super friendly and professional, compared to my recent visit to Pt.Leo celler door where staff would just ignored you. We then moved to the restaurant after we finished the cheese board. Lovely open space in the restaurant area with glass wall from floor to ceiling open to the landscape! I was going to do the 3 courses and finish with dessert to share with my partner but the food size was really substantial I was way too full and couldn't even finish my fish main. 😞 My entree of scallops with bacon was so good, a little too much of pumpkin. The barramundi with eels mashed was very tasty as well, but also feel like there are too many things on the plates. Overall I enjoyed my food. My husband entree was great but the main is a little bland. Definitely recommend the cellar door for wine tasting and cheese platter for chill out outdoor on a good sunny day 😎🌞

It was a great experience tast8mg wine at Victoria's oldest vineyard! Awesome atmosphere, nice garden and area to explore on a sunny summer's day.

It had been a very long time since my last visit to the water park, so I wasn't sure what to expect. However, this time was truly more fun, absolutely fantastic, and genuinely amazing! It was completely different from my last experience. The rides were exhilarating, the atmosphere was vibrant, and I made some fantastic memories. I hope to enjoy the attraction again in the future!

Pleasantly surprised by the upkeep of the park. Good mix of wet and dry rides. Plenty of picnicking options. Would recommended taking your own food as super expensive onsite. Showers and changing rooms very clean. Went off peak and there were no lines.

came on a monday and park wasn’t busy that busy, except there was a bit of waiting at the bigger rides. i spent a last day with my bf here before going on a 3 month long trip overseas and was some of the best fun i had in months. the only thing is that it’s fairly far out to a lot of places, being in whittlesea, tickets are also somewhat pricey

When we went there it was temporarily closed because 17 schools were there but other than that it was pretty cool. Would love to come back here again. And the food was served was pretty delicious

We were meant to celebrate my son’s birthday at the park last weekend, but unfortunately the weather had other plans. I just wanted to share how impressed I was with the team for making the call to cancel the day before, it was thoughtful, proactive and really appreciated. Zac was so lovely on the phone and very professional. We’ve been to Funfields are few times over the years and can’t wait to re-book my son’s party and get back there when the weather is better. Highly recommend.

The new addition of the Lazy River, bumper cars and VIP Huts really add a whole new dimension to this park ! The Huts are well worth the extra money - it felt so private and comfortable with lounges and even a fridge to keep the drinks cold ! The shade and the location really do make them priceless. Kids can’t wait to go back again 🥰

It was great day with kids , plenty of parking , great seats and tables inside the theme park , take your own food and drink , spent the whole day picnic and play, should definitely visit again when open for next season

Open every Sunday and Wednesday only during the school holiday. Check the availability from the official website. Lots of fun for all ages. Salute and appreciate very much to all the volunteers managing and maintaining all these beautiful miniature trains. They are all very helpful and friendly. Take extra miles to take care the under previledge. We took 2 rounds of the ride! Be prepared for the long queue for at least 30 minutes to 40 minutes! Other than the ride, there is a copper butterfly park for the kids. Noticed all the kids love the place so much. One can walk further to the creek for a nature walk and some garden bird watching.

Wonderful experience. Kids love it and got a nearby playground for the kids to spend time after the train ride. Even when the queue is long, ul be able to get into the train ride within 10 min. Worth the $5 tickets. Run by volunteers and the trains, tracks and the entire place has been maintained well

What a fantastic day out at the miniature trains! The volunteers were so friendly and welcoming, and even though it was busy the line moved really quickly. I was surprised at how much space there is in the carriages. I had my 2 month old in a baby carrier and my husband had our 17 month old sitting in front and we were both really comfortable. The track itself is great with little crossings and even a tunnel which made it so much fun for both the kids and us adults. The whole setup around the station makes it even better. There were food trucks and the park next door is fully fenced which is a big relief with toddlers. It has BBQs, accessible play equipment and plenty to do. I also loved the thoughtful touches like the sign language signs around the park. Such a great family friendly experience, highly recommend!

🚂 cute and fun place to visit~ Perfect for small kids and big kids! Affordable prices of $5 👌 There was a long line, but it moves very fast as there are multiple trains running each time. Got to go through tunnels and across the stations they made just like a real train. 🤩 Definitely go for the experience!

We enjoyed a lot. It's looks like you train only for kids but in my experience, even adults will enjoy. It's like good things comes in small packages 🚂🚂

Reviews for my SEAsters. I took a train from southern cross station to Eltham (hurstbridge line?) about an hour journey. Got out from the station and waited for the bus to go to eltham lower park. I was with my son n it was extra cold so its impossible to walk. Google said we could walk but its just a bit far IMO. The bus will stop exactly at the lower park so i walk inside n saw the ticketing booth. It was 5aud per ride per person when i went there. Amazing area n so many trains, more trains in the shed. There were few foodtrucks nearby and a park ofcourse but i didnt go. The train ride opens every sunday 11am -5pm and some wednesdays i think but you can check on their website too for any info.

Just one of the best - and best value! - days out for kids under 10 in all of Melbourne. $5 pp for all riders aged 2 and over. Round out the day with time in the Eltham Copper Butterfly playground, and either by picnic or grab a soft serve or gelato from the always-there Mr Whippy van. Perfect
