Nice restaurant with a beautiful vine covered patio for nice sunny days and a big fireplace with chairs for colder days. The Restaurant has a nice outlook over the Goulburn River and the food was very enjoyable (breakfast, lunch and dinner!)

This iwas a very pleasurable experience. The cellar door had a nice feel to it and the tower was a unique attraction that you don't get at many places. The grounds overlooking the Goulburn river were quite beautiful.
Since our last visit an amazingly well fitted out Hotel and Day spa have been constructed along with a chocolate shop. We stayed for a couple of nights and thoroughly enjoyed our time in the area |
