This place was the best value for money to eat in the area. Very well priced and the portion sizes were spot on. Thai fillet could have been slightly larger however, the BLT was HUGE! They forgot the cheese for the kids cheese burger 🤣 also great to see they did not have any gaming. Service was a bit relaxed, was definitely a local 😊 If we ever make it back there will make sure we have a feed at this pub.

Our first time experience stay 2nights 3 days accommodation in Jindabyne NSW, Lake Jindabyne Hotel. Our room has access to the beautiful Lake at the back, morning sunshine and afternoon so nice to walk. Meanwhile Hotel services nothing to complain about, complimentary free breaky is good to start with each day, food is freshly prepared, car park is infront door of our room accessibility, so choose the ground floor I best recommend, room is enough for 3 pax, with complimentary coffee tea sugar mini bags, towels , toilet bathroom facility is separated which is good. Staff members are accommodating hope it’ll be practice at all times. The location is accessible to shops groceries petrol ATM banking, a meat pie shop is delicious meaty beef chunk. We still have tomorrow to enjoy our stay in LJH,,

It's been 8 years since I stayed here and wow what a shock I got when we saw our room this time round! Initially, I thought it was a little pricy since I went last but I can say I got value for money! The new building is incredibly aesthetic and warm! There was plenty of room and towels for our family of 5. Kids loved their own tv. The hot breakfast was as good as before, if not better. Still love the central location in town and a quick walk to pubs and clubs and lake views. Down fall is that there is no toilet upstairs in the master room of the family suite and no full-time reception.

We stayed here for a couple of nights during the winter school holiday. It has been an excellent experience. The check in process was fast (drove straight to the designated parking in front of the room and opened the door using codes in the email); the room was welcoming and clean, with a fabulous view over the lake; the bistro was warm and served good value food; the breakfast was standard though well presented; best of all, it is a great location close to the snowy mountains.

We love the 'Jindy Hotel'. It's had the same manager (Graham/Pops) for many years and we're always welcomed back by him and his team. I always had the daily special for dinner. The pork sausage pasta on the Sunday was great!! Location is perfect with a short walk to the rest of town. There's a really cool chairlift sculpture down by the water (head down and turn right) you should check out if you have the time.

Best hotel I’ve ever come across. What stood out was the included breakfast! Perfect before a snow day. Only critique is they need a cafe added onto the premises. The loft lodge king suit was next level! Highly recommend.

Staying at the Lodge was amazing. So new, so clean, such good value. Lovely big comfy beds in super spacious rooms. We travelled with a baby and it was so safe for her to crawl around everywhere. Great to have a few drinks next door too.

Booked for lunch as a stopover to Thredbo as we've been previously and loved their sticky date puddings so decided to go back. Food was good - the Schnitzel was actually the highlight this time! The sticky date sauce was a little sweet compared to what we remembered (the ice-cream helped soften this!) but it was still decent, especially if you prefer the denser texture with date pieces! It was a busy Saturday lunch so service was slightly slow and less attentive but overall, lovely vibes and surrounds! Good variety of schnapps too!

A wonderful spring experience to finally visit with a friend and my Assistance Animal. Free tasting, mouth watering afternoon tea. Staff are so friendly and service is top notch. Grounds are well kept and being a Vodka fan had to buy a bottle and surprised my tastebuds with Apple and Pear Schnapps! So great to meet one of the owners who's locally born and raised as I am. Will definately visit again. Thankyou to you all for taking extra time for our visit.

We paid a visit over the weekend and ordered the schnapps tasting. We chose: Butterscotch, Peach, and Pear, and here's how they stacked up: 1. Butterscotch: This one’s a crowd favorite, and for good reason! Right from the first sip, you get hit with this amazing, sweet aroma that really draws you in. The taste is rich, creamy, and just downright indulgent. But after a couple of sips, it did start to feel a little too sweet, almost like dessert in a glass. Still, it’s perfect for those with a sweet tooth. 2. Peach: I really enjoyed the peach schnapps! It had a lovely scent, light and refreshing. The flavor was super smooth, with just the right amount of fruity sweetness. This is definitely a drink that’s easy to sip on and feels perfect for a sunny day. 3. Pear: Sadly, the pear schnapps didn’t quite do it for me. It tasted a bit too much like cough medicine. The flavor was kind of flat and not as enjoyable as the others. Definitely the least favorite of the bunch. As for the distillery itself, it's a great spot to hang out. They’ve got both indoor and outdoor seating, so you can choose where you want to chill. The outdoor area is really spacious, with lots of room for kids to run around, and there are some cool sculptures scattered around to check out. It’s a nice mix of a laid-back vibe and a beautiful setting. Overall, Wildbrumby is definitely worth a visit. The schnapps tasting is a fun experience, especially if you’re a fan of unique flavors, and the whole place is perfect for a relaxing day out. Just make sure to go easy on that butterscotch unless you’re ready for a sugar overload!

Great view and the food is not bad, price were acceptable too. We didn’t booked but they still give us a table outside. Food order was fast. Definitely a good lunch stop driving down from snowy mountains 🏔️🥰

Made a lunch booking here at the recommendation of a few friends. We had a really lovely time, the property is beautiful and the food & service were pretty good. Enjoyed a paddle od schnapps- peppermint, sour apple, and devils tongue (chilli) which was my favourite. Had some cheese and crackers, olives, and the pork sausages which were all really nice. Definitely worth the stop.

This place was very crowded at lunchtime, and we couldn't get an outdoor table since we hadn't booked in advance. We tried the pumpkin soup, cheese platter, and sticky date pudding with vanilla ice cream. The pumpkin soup was a bit bland, and the cheese platter wasn't worth the price. However, sticky date pudding was really good. There is plenty of space for kids to play and a perfect view for photos. Ample parking available. Overall, I'd come back here just for the ambience.

It's a must visit place if you are travelling down to Snowy Mountains ! The location is beautiful and in midst of mountains . We enjoyed the pumpkin soup and the cheese platter. The staff are very welcoming and suggested us some good food ! Make sure you reserve a table before you go here as it can get packed .

The alpine coaster is the only attraction that feels somewhat worth the money. Unfortunately, tobogganing isn’t allowed, which would’ve been a great family activity. If you’re looking for a better experience, head to Perisher Valley instead — there’s more snow, and you can enjoy snowboarding, skiing, tobogganing, and quality time with the whole family.

It was still snowing when I visited in October, which made the trip even more special. The town has a local, homey feel with plenty of restaurants and a cosy pub, and the quieter atmosphere was perfect. Snowboarding was so much fun, and Riccardo, the instructor, was great and really easy to get along with. The free shuttle bus runs regularly to take you around town, and when we left late one evening, a driver kindly radioed another shuttle on our route to pick us up. The staff were super friendly and the service was excellent.

We stayed for 2 days We went up the mountain on the Suger gums chair lift. It was bitting cold due to the wind. Our accommodation was good. We had dinner in the pub. Everyone was helpful and friendly. Totally recommend a stay. It was very quiet when we were there as it was between winter and summer seasons.

Thredbo is a beautiful and magical place, especially after a heavy snowfall – it really feels like a winter wonderland! My son absolutely loved the Alpine Coaster, which was definitely a highlight of our trip. We tried to book three rides but unfortunately, it was all sold out, and there was only one ride option available – so make sure to book in advance. The ski area itself is pretty good. We wanted to book a ski lesson at Friday Flat and got there around 12:35 PM for a 1:00 PM session, but were turned away because they require at least 30 minutes of prep time before the lesson starts. Something to keep in mind – get there early! One thing to note is that Thredbo doesn’t have a lot of dedicated areas for snow play with kids. Most of the snow play is either by the roadside or scattered around the ski resort, and unfortunately, tobogganing isn’t allowed. On top of that, the Merritts Gondola was shut due to high winds during our visit. While the snow and scenery were absolutely incredible, the infrastructure just doesn’t seem to cope well during the peak school holiday season. Overall, a great experience but definitely one where planning ahead makes a big difference.

Worst experience I ever had in this resort. During peak season timings they expect us to be before 8am in mornings to have best possible coverage for 12-3pm pass session. If you really want us to be early, make sure to “REMOVE” passes saying 12pm-3pm on website, and also never release tickets and overbook.

Thredbo is a fantastic destination for a family getaway. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and full of life — whether you’re here for skiing in winter, hiking in summer, or simply enjoying the village charm. There’s something for everyone, from scenic chairlift rides to kid-friendly activities, great dining, and stunning views. The mix of fresh mountain air, friendly locals, and well-kept facilities makes it easy to relax and truly enjoy your time together. Highly recommended for families looking to make special memories.

Congratulations to the Thredbo team for the amazing service. A big thank you to the gondola staff who kindly helped me search for my snowboard today 31/08, and especially to Bratt, who came with his skis and managed to find/rescue it. Outstanding service and such a helpful team, you truly made my day!

The scenery was absolutely stunning! We did a partial snow hike, starting at 11:30 and reaching Eagle’s Nest Point by 3:30, catching the last chair lift back just before 3:45. It was an awesome hike and a great experience overall! If you’re planning to go snow hiking, make sure to wear proper clothing and snow shoes. We had all the gear, which made the hike much easier and more enjoyable — a well-packed and thoroughly fun adventure!

An incredible experience! I took the chairlift and spent about 2.5 hours walking from the Thredbo Chairlift Top Station to the summit of Mt Kosciuszko. The trail is mostly flat and easy, with amazing views along the way. You'll pass the highest restaurant and even the highest "dunny" in Australia—how cool is that? Reaching the highest point on the continent felt truly rewarding. Just make sure to plan your time well and check the chairlift timetable—we almost missed it, which would have added another 2 hours walking back down. Overall, a memorable and scenic adventure that’s worth every step!

Absolutely loved being able to walk to the highest mountain in Australia. Locals advised us to walk from Charlotte Pass. Easy to park as we arrived early morning. Toilet at car park. 18.6km return walk. Charlotte Pass is 1755m above sea level Mt Kosciuszko 2228m. The track is well maintained, sign posted and slowly takes you up to the mountain on a wide track. Beautiful flowers, scenery and the Snowy River on the way. We stopped at Seamans Hut for a bite to eat & a chat with two knowledgeable Rangers. Toilet near hut. Another toilet (the highest in Australia) is at Rawsons Pass, just before the last 1.7km to the top. This is the steepest part of the walk, but still ok. Amazing to reach the summit and to be on top off Australia. Cairn and information board there. Ensure you check the weather before going, be prepared with a coat incase conditions change. Wear sunscreen and good walking shoes. We saw all ages walking. The track became busier when we reached Rawson Pass with the people that had caught the chairlift.

Kozzy? Bloody completed it mate! In a white out too! Didn’t see the sights but experienced all the mountain had on a windy snowy day!!

The highest mountain in Australia with variety of things to see like caves, thermal pools, ski etc..

Epic hike to do in November when there is still little snow.

Route to the peak: comfortable and light Overall, it’s a good comfortable walk on a prepared trail. Don’t take tracking poles with you if you don’t want to carry them in hands the whole way (on other routes they will be more in use). There are one stop with restrooms (btw the highest one in Australia:)) on the route. The restaurant (near the lift station) works until 3pm. They say it takes 4-6h, but it really depends on weather and your physical conditions. For example, we did round-trip in Summer less than 3h.

What a fantastic little museum. Highlights for me are the WWII stories of locals who served, of which the best is that of Jim Thompson ("the toughest man ever to pick up knitting needles"). See a full-sized replica of the hut lived in by Jack Riley, who was the real 'Man from Snowy River'.

There's a lot to see here, give yourself some time! Staff were friendly and exhibits quite interesting. A fascinating depiction of Australian history.

Lots of history. Old buildings out the back. Amazing museum for a little.town. if there's somethingyou want to know the information centre is very helpful. Only thing is winter opening times are different.

Great Museum with a huge amount of displays.

Great Museum. With lots to look at.

Thank you for welcoming my father and I to your lovely museum yesterday. The volunteer on duty (sorry did not catch his name) was friendly and knowledgeable and the entry fee of $5 per adult was well worth it. We learnt a great deal not only about Jack Riley but also the history of Corryong and surrounds. Particularly enjoyed the schoolhouse and Iris the jeep exhibits. Visitors just make sure to bring cash as museum was not on eftpos. Ensure you bring enough so at the end of your visit you can buy a souvenir or two from the surprisingly extensive collection. Museum also had easy parking right outside and very clean toilets. Was definitely worth the trip over from Wodonga - highly recommend to all history lovers out there to pay a visit. You'll have a great time and definitely learn something new!

Great Australian History must visit only a few hours from Melbourne The country of the outback, the man from the snowy River It's a perfect excuse to get here we can't travel overseas let's make the most of it Visit Your Backyard support Australian businesses You are all Welcome here.

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.

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

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

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.

The venison burger is nice. The emu meat is okay. The cheese garlic bread and vegan curry are goo too. Nice view. Nice atmosphere. The emu, stags and goats there are cute.

Incredibly enjoyable meal 🥩🍽️ the emu steak was incredible, the venison pasta was even better and the overall atmosphere was just so amazing. I will definitely recommend and come back myself very soon! And tbh, for the overall package the prices were pretty fair as well

Had a lovely time at the Red Stag. Came for lunch on the Sunday of the long weekend. The place was extremely busy which was expected. There was about a 45 minute wait on food which we didn’t mind considering how busy it was. When the food came out it was very delicious and we were very happy with it all. After our meal we had a walk around the grounds to see the animals which was a good experience.

Our GO TO for every Bright trip. Food always good& consistency remained even after few years since our last visits. Breathtaking view, prompt& care customer service. Will always coming back.

One of the great spot to go for family while not many of these on the way to snow.(Apart from town) A little bit travel off the main road, you got wild animal to feed and brilliant views while you enjoy the food. Service can be improved a little bit with more training on young employee on details but generally not much to complain. Suggesting a ?km reminder on the sign. Not lots of parking especially when you towing. But its not always that busy.

it’s not table service but it was pretty quick. wine was such a great price for a bottle! fantastic views and great venison salami to take away

A beautiful countryside gem. If you are visiting Bright, this place deserves a visit. We would have missed it if not for a colleague's reccomendation who is also a local to the region. Picture perfect setting, wonderful service, nice selection of good, and great value. The scones are huge and perhaps the best I have had in Australia. We also had the goat curry and it was very homely. Only if my hometown was in Switzerland. But Victorian Alps do transport you to Switzerland. The farm has animals too and you can feed them for 5 or 10 dollars per bucket. Another must try activity for kids or adults. The drive from main road till the restaurant in the Eurobin valley is beautiful too. I can't recommend this place enough.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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

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.

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.

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.

I really enjoyed looking around the old homestead. It's so important that we retain these little gems of history. And.... it's supposed to be haunted although I didn't see any signs of ghosts 👻

What a beautiful afternoon we spent under a shady tree, enjoying a ploughman's lunch, a beer or two and a local white wine. The owners are so friendly and their family is connected to the Kelly's...owners of the land and homestead. The carefully laid out tables/chairs, around the property, offer spots to enjoy, whether for a couple, family, small group gathering. One could easily have an event held there, and if inclement weather, there is an event space inside the cafe/bar at the back. Toilets are basic and separate to the Cafe but easily accessible. Not so sure about disabled toilets. Plenty of parking on dirt at the front of the homestead. There is a separate kitchen which would be the original and worth a peak to get a glimpse of what it would be like back in the day. Near the toilets and very old tree, there is access to the cellar area - a good hiding spot when under attack from bushranger etc. Such a great asset for everyone visiting Yarrawonga and surrounds. A big thumbs up from us. 👍

A great piece of history and well worth the visit if you’re interested in the Hume & Hovell story. The building is classified “A” to be preserved at all cost ….hmmmm….that message seems to have been lost. The place definitely needs some TLC. The brewery was a relaxing break in the garden . Well worth the visit & tour. A shot sample of beer is included in the ticket entry.

Sorry this is not an review of the beautiful old homestead itself. We never got to that. After our brunch in the brewery we were completely incapable of bipedal locomotion. The other half loves a brew, and I will admit to being keen to try their Autumn deal which was a large ploughman’s platter and two beers/wines. However his lordship wanted to have the pie. So rather than miss out on my ploughman’s platter altogether I chose to have the small platter. Just me. On my own. Solo. It really could have fed two. The ladies all insisted they’d give me a takeaway container, but I gave it a good shake! The variety of goodies on the plate was stunning, with some amazing local produce. And us townies forget the joy of an egg produced by a happy chook! The three ladies on deck were spectacular. Without exception happy, smiling and amenable without being in your face. They were also very knowledgeable about the region. It was a lovely peaceful place to dine, and I recommend it unreservedly. Oh, and the other half said the pie was impressive also!

Nice place with tranquil surroundings. Good selection of beers and ciders. Ploughman's player was generous but it seemed like everything on it except the chutney could be bought from the supermarket.

While we did not take the tour of the Homestead we enjoyed beer tasting and a bite to eat. We selected 6 ciders and beers to taste served in 200ml glasses and a Ploughmans platter to share. The tasting room is spacious yet cozy with a wood fire burning. We enjoyed a leisurely visit there and I'd love to go back

Lovely historic place with very nice food and some interesting homebrews! 😱 Great to wander around the homestead grounds without having to pay for the tour. Seeing 170 year old elm trees was pretty amazing also. Well worth the visit😄👍 Check out my photos! ✅

It's lovely sitting on the verandah with a glass of wine and nibbles and looking out over the valley. They have set up chairs and umbrellas on the lawn for couples all also looking out at the view. There are tasting platters of wine where you can taste 3 different types for $10, which is a good idea if you can't decide. You can do the normal wine tasting for free. Numerous dips and the breads are home made and quite good. Friendly attentive staff.

Delicious wines! We enjoyed the great view eating and drinking. This is such a lovely place with a very friendly staff! Thank you so much!

A relaxing place to eat, drink and lay back. Thanks to the friendly staff here, I fell in love with the sweet dessert wine - Dookie Hills Botrytis Riesling 2012. Its combination with the raspberry cake is a heavenly taste.

Nice try. Lovely venue but food very ordinary and overpriced. Lasagna and Fettucini for $45? Seriously? Anyone can cook that. Their knowledge of the wines was hopelessly inadequate. Despite charging $20 for a tasting flight but not providing any information. Had to ask to read the back label! Won’t be recommending or going back.

Amazing setting in the Dookie hills. Our groups shared a number of plates and drinks. All were good other than the shared plate. $48 for a handful of nuts, bland dip, average cheese and some cheap crackers was ridiculous. Shouldn't have been more than $28 for what was on it. Highly recommend going as staff, the setting and majority of the food are great but I'd be avoiding the shared plate at all costs...

We have been meaning to visit Tallis for quite a while... we should have come years ago. Tallis’ food, service and ambience is beyond compare. A beautiful location to eat a casual, unpretentious lunch. Glorious ham hock soup, 6 for $6 sausage rolls and delicious apple cake were delivered by extremely efficient and friendly Mieka. Soft background music, great red wine and beautiful views meld into an unforgettable experience. Tallis is good for the soul. Thank you so much.

Great place, setting was beautiful, weather was perfect, staff were fantastic.

Well worth a stop. Yes it is touristy, but it's also grey nomads like us that come for a pic of the Big Thing and then spend a bit of money that goes back into the local economy. After reading the reviews, we steered clear of the waffles and pancakes and ordered scones instead. Very nice, along with strawberry jam and fresh whipped cream. I would recommend a stop here.

We got here at 11am luck as we missed the massivce crowd . And got our food before a huge influx of people. Free wifi is good but we sat next too the kids play area, it's a good idea , it's $750 pp under 3 is free but they have a seperate area beside the play ground that all costs money . I wanted to order a burger but was 30 min early to order one but people I saw ordered them that was annoying . But I was lucky I ordered the chicken msredrd mustard Spanish rostie it was really nice I'm lucky I ordered that. The okay prices I think are too expensive potentially $5 or over a total for the table kids play for free. All the food and coffee was pretty good . The kids pancake with other was the same price as one on the full menu that U got 2 pancakes good scoop of strawberry ice-cream and strawberries in the pancake so we got that instead , that wasn't a kids meal. The only in the kids area the wife could of been better and lower kids play prices should be lower everything else was good if eat again if I'm in the area. Staff where all friendly and polite and happy and enjoying their job .

The staff member in this photo seriously needs proper customer service training and, more importantly, needs to understand that being racist towards visitors is completely unacceptable. We had one of the worst experiences during our visit. From the moment we arrived, there was a noticeable attitude problem. One of our friends had their order messed up, which, to be fair, can happen. Mistakes are part of the job and we would have understood that. However, instead of handling it with a simple apology or any professionalism, the staff responded with rudeness, dismissiveness and an awful attitude. What shocked us most was not the mistake itself, but the way they reacted. They made us feel like we were the problem for simply pointing it out. It was deeply disappointing and honestly quite upsetting. If you are planning to visit, be prepared for one of the worst customer service experiences you might have in Australia. The place clearly does not care about how it treats people, and the behaviour of the staff reflects that. Keep your expectations low so you are not caught off guard like we were.

If you're visiting Bearii, this is a wonderful place to explore, especially for children. They offer a delightful strawberry vine, a variety of playful activities, and beautiful lilies that can bring joy to visitors of all ages.

The Big Strawberry 🍓 – Nice spot, but service needs work This was my second visit to The Big Strawberry & sadly, it won’t be a third. I brought my family here thinking it would be a great spot for locals and tourists alike, but the service left a lot to be desired. We wanted to try some strawberry liquor at the tasting area, but it was unattended when we arrived. After waiting a few minutes, two staff members appeared, one said she’d send someone over but nothing happened. Another lady noticed us waiting but didn’t offer any help, just glanced and went about her tasks. After asking three times, one lady finally served us but seemed annoyed and mentioned the tasting was limited to three people, which felt a bit rude. In the end, we only shared 1 sample and didn’t end up buying a bottle. It felt disappointing, especially as visitors and I can’t help but wonder if that influenced the attitude we received. The venue is beautiful with nice indoor and outdoor spaces, so it’s unfortunate the customer service didn’t live up to that standard. To improve, better staff training on attentiveness and friendliness , especially during busy times is essential. Every guest, whether local or tourist, should feel genuinely welcomed and valued. Treating people differently based on where they’re from can come across as unfair or even racist, which is truly disappointing. I hope the team can improve because the potential here is huge! 🍓✨

Really enjoyed our Devonshire tea. Was a bit confused about the pricing as it advertised $12- for 2 scones + coffee or tea but I only had 1 scone & still cost $23- 🤔 but scones were great 👍. Purchased some relish & jam and when we got it home realised it was 4 months after best before date 🤦🏻‍♀️ Hopefully they’re ok after spending $24- buyer beware I didn’t think to check that

Great place. Owners/managers always trying to make us feel welcome. We always try stop in when we have time. Lots of creative strawberry products.

Thanks, Cactus Country for helping me celebrate my birthday! I booked for 15 people and they gave us the entire event room for the entire day. It was perfect to be able to leave our things while we went for a walk. I ordered platters for 15 people and they provided more than enough. It was delicious and served promptly! Can't recommend attending in the Spring enough!!

What a wonderful way to spend the most part of a day. This place caters for all from kids to ground ups ( especially older never grow up kinds ) we had a lovely day exploring the amazing cactus variants wow what a variety and you can take your dog too.Friendly staff great food and frozen margaritas yummy highly recommend

While camping in Bearii, we discovered this amazing spot to visit. We had a great time exploring the area and seeing so many different varieties of cacti all in one place. Plus, it’s pet-friendly! Before you leave, make sure to try the cactus ice cream and cake at the charming little café—they also offer a variety of food and drinks.

Great experience! Bernie is a gem - such a delight and very informative Cacti are also currently in full flowering season and the gardens are so pretty Definitely worth a visit but gets really warm in the afternoon so sunscreen is a must

Interesting place to visit. The cacti are beautiful when in bloom. Easy parking. Reasonably priced. Lots of variety. Great place for families.

We had a lovely day walking around, looking at the most weird and wonderful variety of cactus ever! The drinks and food were fantastic. Highly recommend for a day out.

This was a massive area with so many beautiful cacti and succulents. Lots of flowers, paths and photo areas to take pictures. Ticket was 25$ pp, but I’d say it’s worth it.

A great place to go for a walk and enjoy nature and bird sighting.

I love the new lights they've put up around the lake. Went down there last night. I love it. The light poles change colours. Very cool to see. Great BBQ areas all around Lake too

I had such a great time ! The atmosphere was so peaceful and relaxing. The views were beautiful, especially around sunset, perfect spot for a walk or just to sit and enjoy nature. It’s clean, well-maintained, and great for families or solo visits.

My mum and I had a lovely lunch 🥙 and chat on the lake over EasterI Its so soothing and relaxing. I’ve decided we have to go there more often when I’m visiting.

Victoria Park Lake is a focal point of Shepparton. Nice for a stroll or relax. There’s BBQ's available in the adjoining park. Lots of bird life to enjoy. Pelicans too. Some nice seating and picnic areas by local manufacturer Furphy Foundry. Worth a stop if you’re in the area!
