Other things to note It is only a short 5 min walk into Woodend Township, just over the creek to bars, brewery, boutiques, wine bars and shops. A farmer's market is held on the first Saturday of the month and its only a short drive to numerous wineries and local attractions such as Hanging Rock. We have an abundant veggie garden and you are invited to pick raspberries in season. Our two dogs, Australian Bulldogs, are kept separate from our guests, but they love a pat if you are a doggie person! Our girls, six chooks are a relaxing site as they chook around the garden.
