New South Wales’ wine regions are calling! The Hunter Valley is famous for its semillon while the Riverina is the place to go for shiraz and chardonnay. You can go vineyard hopping in the Hilltops region or sip cool-climate drops in Orange. No matter where you end up, you'll feel refreshed and relaxed after an epic weekend away.
Take to the road, stopping to have a meal and a drink or even spend the night at one of country New South Wales’ excellent pubs. Plenty are worth visiting for the location alone but add regional, seasonal menus, boutique accommodation, storied histories and lively locals and you’ve got yourself an unbeatable country escape that will leave you feeling energised.
Chilly weather getting you down? Pack your shades and head to the coast of NSW to feel the summer vibes. The winter weather is generally cool and clear, which means walks along the beach, early-morning salutes to the sun and even the odd dip are all doable. Whether you go north or south, you can bet the area will be buzzing.
