Planning the Drive
Drive & Parking
Roughly seventy-five minutes from Melbourne CBD via the Calder Freeway and the C123. Free guest parking behind the old stables.
Train Access
V/Line regional services stop at Woodend. It is a short drive on from there; tell us when you book and we can point you at a local car.
Rideshare & Taxi
Drop-off is at the front door under the veranda. Coverage thins out late, so book your return car before you sit down to dinner.
Accessibility
Step-free entry to the bar and dining hall, and an accessible bathroom off the main corridor. The cellar vault is down a stair — tell us and we will seat you upstairs.
