“Country Place was a fantastic option for our annual staff workshop. The accommodation was a perfect fit, and the food was top quality. The staff were so flexible and accommodating to our needs, which made our workshop logistics very easy to organise. Our staff had such a positive experience at Country Place, everyone was absolutely enamoured by the surrounding views and fresh air – it felt like we were miles away from the hustle of Melbourne!”
