“Inspired by the old tobacco kilns which characterise this part of Victoria, these three stunning minimalist houses ooze understated indulgence. Set on a working cattle farm & vineyard, multi-bedroom spaces have huge windows, modern kitchens & private decks. Cycling & wine tasting adventures await.”

The Kilnhouses - Hotel Review

Incorporating repurposed tobacco kilns, these beautifully appointed, spectacularly positioned hideaways redefine Australian country cool."
