Visit Rutherglen

Visit Rutherglen

Visit us in Rutherglen, on the main street of town.

You’ll find our new space at 66 Main Street among stunning historic shop fronts.

We love our region, with charming antique stores, quaint coffee spots and gorgeous vineyards.

Spend the weekend here, in Victoria's high country, for an experience to remember...

We’ve got you covered with a list of must-dos for the trip!

 

Start with a little retail therapy.

You’re always welcome at Tutto Bello (its our favourite store in town). Here you'll find all things beautiful. Spoil yourself with pieces from our luxury beauty ranges or natural textures from our linen and leather collections.

Don’t look past Hennessy Home and Garden which lies further down the main street at number 137. Add to your pot and plant collection after a visit to this family-owned homewares store. Here you’ll find an abundance of gorgeous growing green leaves and vines to choose from.


What’s a getaway without a friendly visit to the Lolly Shop? (For the kids - of course)

Home to old fashioned lollies and chocolates, the Rutherglen Lolly Shop will be a family favourite. Step back in time and treat yourself to something sweet or boiled from the shelves or save some room for an ice cream scoop. Will it be choc mint or lemon gelato?


Walking weather?


If the sun is shining then you’re in luck! Breathe in the fresh country air with a walk around Lake King, filled with peaceful scenery and local bird life. You might like to pack a picnic lunch or teach the kids how to throw in a fishing line.

If the historic route is top of your list, then a wander through Rutherglen’s heritage buildings is the perfect walk for you. Stroll through town and admire the ornate period buildings which will quickly catch your eye.


Live music and delicious food.

Enjoy fresh dishes, local wine and beers while listening to live music in September at the Pickled Sisters café. This fun and rustic regional space will play host to their Courtyard Tunes over a few Spring weekends.


It wouldn’t be a trip without wine.

Known for its vines and wine, Rutherglen is one of the oldest growing areas in Australia. From modern cellar doors to more traditional productions, there is much to explore at one of more than 20 wineries throughout the region.

Try one of our favourite spots for a tasting:

Scion Vineyard & Winery

Morris Wines

Cofield Wines

Jones Winery Vineyard & Restaurant


For those who prefer a cocktail or two.

Finish the day with a drink at Grace. Indulge in industrial vibes, historic surroundings, and global inspired dishes. We think it’s the perfect match for a cocktail list.

 

Enjoy your time in our beautiful town. We'll see you at Tutto Bello.
