The region is steeped in the history of its founding pioneers and presents an abundant opportunity to taste at some of Australia's most iconic wine companies cellar doors. Add to that some excellent restaurants, all with a wine focus, a wonderful farmers' market and plenty of good shopping, especially well-priced antiques, clothing and books.

We can accommodate a maximum of two people in a queen size bed in each cottage, a maximum of 6 people in total.
