It feels like a lifetime ago that Max and I
escaped for the weekend to sit in the sun, eat cheese, drink great beer and
enjoy everything Beechworth has to offer. While it does feel like a long time
ago now it remains one of my favorite places in country Victoria, I would
absolutely highly recommend it for day trips but more then likely for a weekend
getaway. It is just about the cutest little country town on earth - except from
Stars Hollow, obviously.
The reason Max and I had found ourselves
there on this particular weekend was primarily due to poor planning on our part
and the fact we had been a few weeks previously for a work conference which was
spent at the Beechworth Old Priory. That conference was amazing and we adored Beechworth
so much that when we ended up plan free a couple of days out from the long
weekend we jumped on the Old Priory once again – keen to see what else was
about.
As we learnt the Old Priory is basically
where monks used to live. It’s pretty and pretty big – a charming place to
stay. It is a shared bathroom kind of deal but we had plans to be lazing in the
sunshine and drinking beer so that didn’t bother us in the slightest.
Now apart from all the pretty, the old
school candy shop and the famous bakery the very best thing about Beechworth is
the Beechworth Brewery. Nothing more to say about it except – BLUE CHEESE PIZZA
AND BEER MADE IN NORWAY.
Also, did you know that Beechworth is right
in the middle of a good food region? We drank wine, we ate hand cut chippies,
we tasted cheese and then we had to go home because sadly holidays cant last
forever.
