THE SURROUNDS
Just 15 minutes from the tourist hub of Mansfield, close to Lake Eildon, several national parks and the Mt Buller snow fields, Altitude 221 is perfectly placed.
Black Angus cows graze, spotted deer and black swans visit and Kookaburras can be heard chuckling in the Pin Oak trees at day break.
THE VINEYARD
With just over an acre of vineyards, we continue to harvest the grapes first planted by Malcolm and Susan Kinloch. These cool climate grapes produced the very popular Don Kinloch Sparkling wine, made in the true French Methode Champenoise tradition.
The mansfield shire
Mansfield is approximately two hours northeast of Melbourne International Airport. The landscape is dominated by the Great Dividing Range and includes the Alpine National Park ski resorts of Mt Buller and Mt Stirling. Lake Eildon, Australia’s second largest inland waterway which can hold six times the water in Sydney Harbour is 15 minutes drive from the Lodge where recreational boating activities abound. The area is referred to as the “High Country” and includes major river systems, lakes, rugged mountains and vast tracts of productive agricultural valleys.
A memorial to the three Policemen killed at Stringybark Creek in 1878 by infamous bushranger Ned Kelly is a part of the district’s history.
