Stay, drink and graze...
Our concept is simple. Arrive with everything already here. Local food, local drinks – sorted! The relaxing part is left to you. It’ll be you and that view.

All-Inclusive Larder
The Kangaroo Ridge Retreat in-cabin gourmet larder is a thoughtfully curated, ever-evolving pantry of locally-sourced delights, capturing the spirit of Victoria’s food and culture scene right. From artisanal ingredients for tapas-style bites and grazing boards to sparkling low-sugar soft drinks and spa kits for natural relaxation, the larder redefines your retreat experience.
Enjoy breakfast essentials like local teas, jams, fresh bread, and seasonal produce, all seamlessly included in your stay.
Complementary and abundant, the larder pairs beautifully with the retreat wine bar, giving you everything for a stay that blends self-indulgence, self-sufficiency, and an authentic taste of the Yarra Valley and Victoria.

A Wine Bar Just for You
Complimenting the larder is your own personal in-retreat wine bar, stocked with a carefully curated selection of wines, beers, ciders and spirits sourced from the Yarra Valley.
With such a wide variety it’s a tour of the cellar doors of the Yarra Valley in your retreat. Whether you’re a connoisseur or just enjoy a good glass of wine, our in-retreat wine bar has something to suit all tastes. Prices are matched to the winery cellar doors.
Now…did somebody say local style aperitivo hour at sunset?
