Just a short trip from central Melbourne, come and smell the flowers in bloom at Rippon Lea Estate. This is the stunning site of a heritage-listed historic house filled with exquisite furniture and decor of its original era.

Take a leisurely wander around acres of peaceful green space. Enjoy a picnic lunch under a centuries-old tree, or leave the kids to explore the interactive Shaun the Sheep exhibit while you treat yourself to a refreshing drink in the shade.
