One of the best things about living in the beautiful NSW Southern Highlands is being able to share our magnificent scenery, gardens, boutique wineries and numerous cafes with other people. That is why I started ‘Highland Vines - Private Winery Tours’ as a personal and exclusive experience.

Such a nice relaxing place to taste some delicious beers. It's not too far from Mittagong town, or Bowral for that matter, with plenty of parking available, but you can walk it from the train station. The staff are so friendly and helpful on arrival, and they suggest ordering a paddle of taster beers to get a feel for their range. They do have around 10 or so beers on offer in schooner and middy sized glasses as well, and even a few takeaway beers if needed. They will also sell refillable containers if you want to take some home straight from the beer tap. There's a lovely range of beers here for all tastes, from light fruity beers to darker beers to a pilsner to a hoppy IPA, there's something for everyone. They also offer some homemade pies from the Gumnut Patisserie across the road, although you can just as easily walk over and buy any pies or pastries of your choice and bring them inside to eat.

I purchased the Italian long lunch cooking class for my partner for his birthday and we both had an absolute blast! Stefano and Yianni welcomed us into their home as if we were family. Stefano was an incredible instructor and food that I could have never imagined creating previously, came together with an ease whilst having a great time in the process. We were even sent the recipes so we could recreate them at home again for our friends and family. We would both definitely recommend this class to anyone looking for a fun day with delicious food or anyone looking to learn how to make some great Italian dishes. We look forward to visiting again soon to learn some more!
