Douglas Vale Historic Homestead and Vineyard

Welcome to a unique experience within Australia! A heritage museum and working vineyard run totally by volunteers. Drop in through the stately heritage-listed bamboo. Enjoy a free tour of the 1862 homestead with its eclectic artefacts donated by the original family's descendants. Explore the original outbuildings. Taste the six limited-release wines. The famous Portabella is grown from 150-year-old Isabella wine stock. Bring a picnic or purchase a delicious cheese platter. Wander the three hectares of grounds and discover their exotic plants. An orchard and vegetable garden also highlight the lifestyle of the times. Monthly 'Open Mic' events are held on the last Sunday of the month. These events are a delightful way to listen to local musicians or performers from the Chook Shed stage or the newly-built Wine House (if the weather is inclement) while enjoying Douglas Vale wines and cheese platters, with other drinks and beers for purchase. Wedding and function bookings are available. Check out the new Wine House as an all-weather venue.
