BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS
|
Comes for the bees, stay for breakfast and dine out on incredible views. That's what it's all about at Vue at Jindivick, where spectacular vistas of Mt Baw Baw is just one of the attractions Anita and Paul Day have in store at their eco bed and breakfast in Jindivick bushland. Hives of bees where beekeeper Marty Dunn runs hand-on beginners courses is another. He'll be hosting one-hour intensive courses on Sunday March 31 after the Village Feast, where participants will suit up and inspect a hive in all its industrious glory. It's great, informative fun.
And that Breakfast? From honey harvested from out the back of Cannibal Creek rye, and Gippsland Jersey milk for your coffee and Tarago cheddar for your toast and Anita's housemade granola for your bowl, this really is a breakfast of champions it's a wonder to awake to. |
STAY
Head a little further into the hills and you'll find Vue at Jindivick, an eco bed and breakfast tucked away in the forest. Set on 36 acres of land, a stay at Vue is ideal for those looking to embark on bushwalking, cycling and bird watching adventures throughout the region. If you visit from September through April, you'll also be able to take part in an on-site beekeeping workshop. Another option is to head to Poowong East to hidden gem Marge's Cottage. In a secluded spot, the handcrafted cottage includes an indoor fireplace, luxurious bathtub and, as a bonus, homemade snacks. Wake up to the soothing sound of the property's friendly milking sheep before making a gourmet brekkie with supplied local produce. For a Gippsland getaway with friends, book a stay at 100-year-old Fieldstone House. This rustic accommodation sleeps eight people and includes a private infinity pool and gorgeous English garden. It's equally ideal for that romantic weekend away you've been trying to plan for months now. |
