5 Stars All Round
We held a conference with our Board and Directors at the lovely Yarra Valley Estate. We enjoyed two tranquil nights in the Harrier room and held our conference in the magnificent Garden Room. The food, staff and surroundings were truly spectacular. It didn’t feel like work at all. Absolutely loved it and will definitely book our next work event there again. 5 Stars all round!!
