A wonderful place to soak up the High Country atmosphere is this family-run farm on a property known for its horse-riding tours. The well-designed, modern rooms (minimum two-night stay) have private verandahs looking out to Mt Feathertop and the Kiewa Valley. Meals are a highlight (three courses $50), shared with the Baird family and featuring paddock-to-plate cuisine.
Expect homemade pastas, home-baked sourdough bread and homegrown veggies, with regular faves including the duck-prosciutto wood-fired pizza and pulled-pork tacos with soft corn tortillas. Much of the spectacular artwork in the accommodation is by co-founder Steve Baird.
