A weekend at Brae, Birragurra.
Lunch or dinner at the restaurant, with a night in one of the farms luxury guest suites - a weekend straight from the heavens.
Snow bunny: a weekend at Astra, Falls Creek. Let's enjoy private ski lessons for two, before retiring to the warmth and seclusion of our suite. Having never been skiing, I cannot attest to my skills and I have no doubt hilarity will ensue.
