The story
Thirty-Four Acres Among the Red Hill Vines
Beyond a tree-lined driveway, Lindenderry unfolds like a private estate among the vines of Red Hill. Thirty-four acres of gardens, an orchard, a lake and cool-climate Pinot and Chardonnay vines invite a slower rhythm: long lunches, fireside evenings and mornings softened by mist across the vines. The property is an hour's drive from Melbourne CBD and minutes from the region's most revered cool-climate wineries, with views towards pure-sand beaches. The interiors, reimagined by the design studio Hecker Guthrie, fuse European country style with a distinctly Australian twist.
Country house hospitality runs through the lounges, which serve as an extension of the accommodation, with a cool white in the long light of summer or a warm red by the fire in winter. The Dining Room holds one hat in the Australian Good Food Guide Chef Hat Awards, serving innovative set menus of local produce alongside a list of more than 200 Australian and international wines, with dinner on Thursday to Saturday. The Lindenderry wines are made by Barney Flanders, and James Halliday has called their range and quality the best yet. The cellar door serves light meals on weekends, and wine can be bought within the hotel seven days a week.
