Spring / Summer — Garden & Gather
Arrive on Friday for a 3 pm check-in before heading to your first local stop — a nearby flower or community farm where you can wander the fields and ease into the slower pace of country life. Then, return to The Yarra for an evening drink followed by a Supper Club experience. On Saturday, we’ll take you back into the landscape for a scenic picnic, a gentle hike, and a relaxed regional tasting before you end the evening back at the inn.
Spring / Summer — Rivers & Reverie
Arrive on Friday for a 3 pm check-in and head to your first local stop along the river or in a nearby hamlet to settle into the weekend. Then, return to The Yarra for an evening drink followed by a Supper Club experience. Saturday offers guided fishing, hiking, or kayaking — your choice — plus a picnic lunch and a relaxed afternoon tasting before drifting into another easy evening at the inn.
Any Season — Clay & Cuisine
Arrive on Friday for a 3 pm check-in and enjoy a first local stop — perhaps a short walk, overlook, or a quiet corner in town. Then, return to The Yarra for an evening drink followed by a Supper Club experience. On Saturday, your group divides between a hands-on pottery session and a cultural outing, switching midday so everyone experiences both. A relaxed tasting and a creative, seasonal dinner round out the day.
Any Season — Still Life
Arrive on Friday for a 3 pm check-in before heading to your first local creative stop — a gallery, studio, or community art space. Then, return to The Yarra for an evening drink followed by a Supper Club experience. Saturday unfolds slowly with visits to artist spaces, a leisurely lunch, and time for conversation, ending with a thoughtful seasonal tasting dinner.
Any Season — Wellness & Renewal
Arrive on Friday for a 3 pm check-in and begin with a grounding first stop — a gentle walk, a quiet viewpoint, or a calming moment in town. Then, return to The Yarra for an evening drink followed by a Supper Club experience. Saturday centers around mindful movement, a seasonal lunch, restorative practices, and a nourishing ingredient-led dinner.
Winter — Snowshoe & Fireside Weekend
Arrive on Friday for a 3 pm check-in and enjoy your first winter stop — a snowy overlook, a quiet walk, or a warm drink in town. Then, return to The Yarra for an evening drink followed by a Supper Club experience. Saturday brings a peaceful guided snowshoe outing, a warming afternoon activity, and a hearty cold-weather dinner followed by a slow morning breakfast on Sunday.
