Redesdale Estate

Owners of Redesdale Estate, Peter and Suzanne Williams, recently purchased The Redesdale and are well underway with expanding and restoring the charming bluestone buildings and grounds. Including outdoor dining areas, café, wine bar, cellar door, a petanque piste and on-site two bedroom accommodation suite, The Redesdale has unofficially been coined a heritage site and still offers country pub hospitality, patronised by locals and visitors alike.

With superb service, regional foods are served with stylish professionalism. From local wild rabbit, organic kid and hare, house-made gnocchi, home grown artichokes, feijoas, citrus, herbs from the kitchen garden and the beer-battered river fish, the menu delights, with everything made in-house using local produce and local wine. Mediterranean style bruschetta, chicken liver pate with house-baked breads, platters of beautiful cheeses, locally grown wine grapes and house-made biscuits are just some of the seasonal favourites.

The Redesdale boasts a regional wine list run with flair and expertise by Restaurant and Beverage Manager James Bone, formerly of the LakeHouse, Daylesford. Redesdale Estate's own grown olive oil and cellar door wines (including old vintages), are available at The Redesdale.

Open for dining from Thursday until Sunday each week and the Bar – with bar foods from Tuesday to Sunday – The Redesdale is located only an hour from Melbourne and five minutes by car from the Redesdale Estate vineyard. Redesdale is a quiet and charmingly bewitching town - blink and you'll miss it! Peter and Suzanne’s offerings to the region are limitless, with further accommodation available on their vineyard or at their 165-acre Stonewall Farm at Barfold (ten minutes from Redesdale town).
