Other things to note THE FOOD and WINE TRAIL Just two doors down from this accommodation you will find excellent Pizza and a decent wine list at The Bank St Pizza, you can dine in the garden or inside the original Bank. Bookings essential at busy times but take away is easy too. Harvest Home, a public bar, restaurant and wedding venue is at 1 Bank St and I would love to get your opinion of the offerings, check it out and let me know. An easy walk from The Avenel Cottage. Tabilk is an oldy but a goody! Famous for wildlife and old grape varieties, it has dining options and a cellar door but it's a drive so you will need a designated driver. Fowels has had a big makeover and could be walkable, (30 mins) a good feed every time and cellar door advice. Mitchelton (just past Tabilk) has also been made over following the floods, have not been here for years but let me know what you think if you make it here. Bookings are essential at these venues. Sundry other Heathcote and Nagambi venues to explore. Please consult the book available at the cottage - How to Drink Australian supplied at the cottage for ideas about visiting these areas.
