Other things to note
Welcome to our charming retreat in the heart of Avoca, a quaint town that hums by day and whispers by night.

As you prepare for your stay, allow us to share a few gentle notes to ensure your comfort:

- Our kitchen awaits your culinary creativity. We've stocked the pantry with essentials - aromatic coffee beans, a selection of teas, and the basics for seasoning. We invite you to bring along your favorite ingredients for cozy, home-cooked meals, especially for quiet weekday evenings when local dining options may be limited.

- Nestled in an agricultural district, our haven occasionally hums with the rhythm of rural life. The passing of vehicles, sometimes including farm equipment, may briefly interrupt the tranquility. We hope you'll find this a charming reminder of our countryside setting.

- With delicate furnishings and an open front yard, we've created a serene adult retreat. For the safety and comfort of all, we kindly ask that children and pets remain at home this time.

- While we've yet to embrace smart TV technology, feel free to connect your devices to our WiFi, transforming any space into your personal cinema.

- To preserve the peaceful atmosphere we cherish, we gently request that gatherings remain intimate and quiet descends by 10 pm. Your consideration helps us maintain harmony with our cherished neighbors.

- Nature has tested our gardens, but we're nurturing them back to life with care. We hope you'll find beauty in their resilience and perfectly imperfect state.

- We're here to ensure your stay is comfortable and memorable. Should you need anything, from local recommendations to assistance, we're just a message away. We can't wait to welcome you to our little piece of paradise.

Neighborhood highlights

Rose+Vine is located on the outskirts of Avoca, in a peaceful area surrounded by open farmland and friendly neighbours. With views to the magestic Pyrenees Ranges, clear your mind and enjoy a lovely walk towards the racecourse, along the dusty tracks of nearby cattle and sheep farms. For a trip into town simply head back around the bend and cross over the bridge of the picturesque Avoca River. A leisurely 10 minute walk, 700m in total, suited for all levels of fitness.

Avoca’s wide main street is a delight to explore with homely cafés, gift shops, art galleries and collectables all housed in historic buildings dating back to the 1850s. Perfect if you love poking around in bric-a-brac and collectable stores.

From fine dining to a classic pub meal, savour true country hospitality at the popular Avoca Hotel. The only hotel ever to be awarded the prestigious Golden Plate Award for Best Overall Dining in Victoria and recongized in Gourmet Traveller’s hall of fame. Serving local and seasonal produce together with boutique wines and craft beers the region is famous for. Open fires in winter and alfresco dining out the front in Summer, The Avoca is a must stop during your stay at Rose+Vine.

After a good feed, simply stroll towards the river behind the pub to visit the equisite Chinese gardens, a nod to the gold rush era.

If you're on the trail of art, head to Avoca's Gallery 127 at the Avoca railway station. Enjoy exhibitions from local artists and whilst there, visit the impressive Barking Owl silo art, part of the Wimmera's famous Silo Art Trail.

The public swimming pool offers a welcome relief to all visitors during those warmer summer months and the bowling club do a great meal with regular live entertainment.

We are also a very short stroll away from the Avoca golf course, or choose to pack your rod for a spot of fishing on the banks of the Avoca River. Along the same river, wander the Avoca Farmer's Market for freshly grown produce, handmade cottage crafts and collectibles on the 4th Sunday of every month.

Avoca is famously surrounded by the Pyrenees Mountain Ranges where state parks and forests have an extensive network of waterfalls, bushwalking and gravel riding tracks. The regions famous Beeripmo Walk guides you through the Mount Cole and Mount Buangor State Parks along winding bush tracks through towering rainforests to hidden waterfalls and fern-filled gullies.

Ready for a long lunch with a magnificent view? Head for one of our local vineyards. Tastings from award winning wineries and restaurants cater to all tastebuds; craft breweries for the beer lovers, gold label specialty wineries, Gin distillery and many local larders.

Avoca is also host to the Pyrenees Unearthed Avoca Wine Festival held in April each year, where you have the opportunity to try many of the Pyrenees Wines all in one location while strolling the banks of the Avoca River.

Throughout summer there is a wide range of outdoor events hosted in the Pyrenees including The Hideout Music Festival, Sunday by the River, Wild Mount Trail Run, Unearthed Pyrenees Wine Festival and live music at cellar doors.

With no shortage of things to do during your stay at Rose+Vine the choice is yours; do as little, or as much as you want. Either way we recommend downloading the Visit Pyrenees App to see the full line up of events before taking your country escape.

Hi there, I'm Sharon your host at Rose+Vine. Actually I'm 1 of 3 partners in this beautiful property; the one responsible for it's charismatic design charms and the one here to craft an amazing guest experience for you. My fellow partners in crime are a little shy but equally as excited to welcome you. A city girl by trade, my heart has always been drawn to the country with both parents growing up on working farms. Some of my most treasured memories are times spent in the wide open spaces, I think it was inevitable I would end up in regional Victoria at some stage. I guess you could say design is in my DNA, having worked in the design and construction industry for 17+ years. An avid renovator and hands on tradie, I've loved every minute of the R+V transformation; pouring my heart and soul in to each curated corner, hunting high and low for the perfect blend of vintage charm and modern luxuries to deliver you the most intimate and warm country escape. I can't wait to welcome you and ensure your stay is a comfortable and memorable one. I'd love for you to follow along @_roseandvine for behind the scenes updates and stories. Hope to see you soon, Sharon
