Whether you’re looking for a special time away for two, or ready to party with all your friends and family, there’s something to suit everyone! The Tower or The Winemakers Cottage offer intimate accomodation for two, while The Lodge sleeps four. The Gatehouse hosts eight, The Residence; ten, and the Pickers Cottage houses a whopping twenty people! Each heritage accomodation has its own unique twist, with unbeatable views to look out over while you work.
Once you’ve arrived and unpacked, take a walking tour around the property. Check out the heritage-listed winery on the hill, which in 1903 was a state-of-the-art wine-producing facility. Spot the striking French provincial tower built by Prominent London wine merchants, the Burgoyne family, and breathe in the fresh air.
When it’s time to close the books, get back to nature on the Murray River Trail. Whether you choose to walk or cycle, this trail will take you through beautiful old river gums, local vineyards and historical spots, ending at the Murray River. Once there, be sure to check out St Leonards Vineyard for lunch!
