Lazy Lovers Brunch | Kyneton

Taste the difference of a country brunch

Set off early for your romantic Kyneton getaway, located just over an hour from Melbourne’s CBD.

Meander along historic Piper Street and you are guaranteed a killer brekkie (and good coffee). Many brunch cafes feature ‘locally laid’ eggs on their menu, laid by very happy, truly free-range country chooks. You can really taste the difference!

PS. Monsieur Pierre open 7 days, The Town Roaster open on weekdays.

Shop Till You Drop | Kyneton

Treat yourself to a spot of retail therapy

With a relaxed brekkie and coffee under the belt, it’s time for a spot of retail therapy.

Kyneton is the shopping mecca of the Macedon Ranges, with the majority of retailers situated along Piper Street, followed by Mollison Street and some absolute gems tucked away on High Street.

You can easily spend hours wandering in and out of character-filled old buildings brimming with new and vintage clothing, millinery, homewares, art, antiques, plants and more.

Tip: Time your romantic getaway with the Kyneton Farmers’ Market, held on the second Saturday of the month.

River Walk & Wine Tasting | Kyneton

Go on a romantic stroll or a wine tasting adventure

Once you’ve had your fill of shopping, check into your accommodation for the night. The afternoon can then be spent getting to know Kyneton on foot.

A leisurely stroll along the peaceful Campaspe River is a good place to start.

The residential streets leading to the river are also beautiful, with old bluestone buildings, rustic cottages and established gardens dotted along the way.

Alternatively, if bushwalking is more your cup of tea, head to Black Hill Reserve on the outskirts of Kyneton for a hike. The reserve is home to a variety of wildlife as well as fascinating granite boulder formations. The views are rather fabulous too.  Pack a thermos for a hot cuppa along the way.

If the weather doesn’t permit for lazy strolls and bush walks, you can always head on a mini wine safari to nearby cellar doors.  Check out Kyneton’s very own urban cellar door, Musk Lane Wines. Or pay a visit to the fantastic Kyneton Ridge Estate Cellar Door and Cafe (only a hop and a skip away from Black Hill Reserve).

Opening hours

Musk Lane Wines: Friday 3-10pm, Weekends 12-10pm, Monday 12-6pm (lunch, dinner and snacks).

Kyneton Ridge Estate: Weekends 11.30-5.30pm (lunch and snacks).

Please note: All cellar doors and restaurants currently require advance bookings. Hours of operation may differ.

Dinner & Drinks | Kyneton

G&Ts and a romantic dinner for two

Spend some time languishing in your B&B, then its time for a cheeky appertif.

If gin is your thing, a late arvo cocktail is in order. Kyneton is home to Animus Gin Distillery, Bar and Cocktail Lounge, famous for their small-batch, award-winning artisan gin distilled on the premises.

Or cosy up at The Royal George Hotel’s Botanik Bar for a gin or vino.

Feeling a little tipsy? Or just giddy with love? Then it’s time for some eye gazing across the table at one of our delectable restaurants for dinner.

There are many options all within walking distance of cosy B&B’s, so you don’t have to worry about driving or taxis.
