Vineyard Views at The Shiraz Republic

Shiraz Republic was such an inviting and comfortable place to stay. The studios are spacious with everything you need for a weekend stay. The view over the grape vines is beautiful when sitting on the veranda sipping a glass of wine with a cheese platter. They have regular weekend live music and pizza. The wines and beers are awesome. If you haven't bought your own groceries to cook up a storm in the fully functional kitchenette in your studio, then it's just 20min drive into Heathcote to find some fine food. We ate at the Juniper Lounge on the first night and enjoyed the music and atmosphere. Head to Bendigo for a day trip if you're looking for something interesting to do. Great relaxing stay.
