  • Draytons Winery
    We like to support the locals and Drayton's, one of the Hunter Valley's pioneering winemaking families, are one of the few local winery companies still family owned and operated. While you're settling into wine tasting we're cooking the BBQ. If you find a wine you like, then buy a bottle between some friends and enjoy it with lunch.

  • Sausage sizzle BBQ lunch
    Australia is the land of BBQs so enjoy the spirit of the classic Aussie tradition of a sausage sizzle. To make this lunch even more special we cook some crocodile meat or 'bush tucker' for you to try!
    Please note that an alternative lunch may be provided for trips in December 2011.
