“Five star luxury in heritage listed Victorian manor in the heart of wine region the Yarra Valley only one hour from Melbourne. Original features and antiques in rooms, extensive gardens and 24 hour room service.”

Hotel review

Situated on the Yarra Valley’s first known winery, the 250 acre Yering Estate, this luxury hotel offers 32 suites in a heritage listed Victorian country manor and stable block dating back to the 1850s. The refurbishment of the hotel has been superbly executed to ensure original features and antiques compliment modern comfort and five star luxury, whilst retaining a sense of the grand house’s heritage. Suites have large comfy beds, marble bathrooms and private decking areas with views across the extensive gardens. Explore the region’s wineries (there are over 70 to chose from), or relax at the hotel with an aromatherapy massage and reading by the open fire grand in the drawing room or library. Dine at Eleonore’s restaurant – expensive, but worth it. The perfect place to unwind.
