It all started in the mid-80s by a handful of wineries wanting to celebrate the region by showcasing Barossa wines paired with culinary delights over a winter’s weekend at their cellar doors. From these humble beginnings, Barossa…Be Consumed Gourmet Weekend has evolved into a celebration of the best of the Barossa food, wine and arts.

There’s nothing quite like devouring a few well-chosen book on holidays, especially in an inspiring setting and curling up on the window seat overlooking the Great Ocean Road, might just be the perfect spot for a bit of drama or romance…
Choosing which books to take on holidays is a serious business, one that gives pleasure and angst in equal measure. Do you take the weighty tome you’ve started, or pack the iPad full of options? While electronic readers make sense when travelling, I still love curling up with a real book. Then having crammed the entire Miles Franklin literary award list into your luggage, I’ll buy the latest travel or a gossip magazine and spend the holiday happily reading the latest on Kimye and more often than not the books will return home unread.
From Aireys Inlet to Apollo Bay, the Great Ocean Road is a tempting mix of natural beauty and nostalgic attractions.
