eople tell us they feel at home in our towns and villages and that they like visiting the Mudgee Region because it’s ‘hype free’. It’s a real community with heart and soul, where people are friendly and where they make others welcome. Just over three hours drive from Sydney, or four from Newcastle, the region is a peaceful retreat with plenty to offer – fine wines, quality accommodation, spectacular scenery, a four-season climate and warm, hospitable service. Locals love where they live, and they are more than happy to share its natural abundance and beauty with you. If you’re looking for relaxation, you’ll find it here. You’ll experience great food, wine and the warmest service around. Add to that the stunning scenery, National Parks with abundant bird life, and historic towns and you’ve got what we know as the Mudgee Region – in every sense perfection.

WIRADjURI COUNTRY The Mudgee region is part of Wiradjuri country. The Wiradjuri language group is the largest in New South Wales, and covers much of the state. In Wiradjuri Aboriginal dialect the word ‘Mudgee’ is reputed to mean ‘nest in the hills’ which suits the town as it’s nestled in the fertile Cudgegong Valley. Many of the roads in the region retrace traditional Aboriginal pathways which were used by the early European settlers when they left Sydney for their journey over the Blue Mountains. There are some significant Aboriginal places in the region. Hands on Rock, 52 kilometres north of Mudgee on the Cassilis Road, is an ancient overhang which bears Aboriginal hand stencilling. Munghorn Gap Nature Reserve is rich in Aboriginal heritage, as is Dunns Swamp where hand stencils can be seen in a small overhang within the camping area. The Wiradjuri people used the rock shelters at Dunns Swamp as well as the range of food provided by a number of habitats, for thousands of generations.

“It may be known for its award winning wines, but apparently there is much more to the NSW town of Mudgee than meets the eye. Mudgee Region Tourism has compiled a list of its Top 10 Unique Experiences for 2011, many of which are unexpectedly perfect for the adventurous traveller after something a little different.”

A little about the Mudgee Township

he township Mudgee was first reached by white man in 1821 by William Lawson and first settled in 1822 by George and Henry Cox. Early Australian architectural facades and historic buildings line the wide streets of Mudgee, many dating to the 1850s. Described by the National Trust as ‘one of the finest groups of townscape in a country area’, and referring to the buildings from St. John’s Church down to the old police station, Mudgee is still blessed with historic buildings, wide streets and an ambience that is the envy of many of our urban visitors. Today boutique shopping, cafes and restaurants, markets and a vibrant arts community give the town an edge, and ambiance which the locals revere and visitors covet. Indulge your senses in the region - enjoy wine, honey, visit museums, go bushwalking or birdwatching, cycle, go gold panning, visit markets, galleries, antique shops, a miniature railway, a boutique brewery or star gaze at the observatory. Whatever you choose, it’s sensory perfection. Need more information on the Mudgee Region?

‘‘Travel Mudgee - Bountiful returns from innovatorsa short stay in this Central NSW region will only whet your appetite. One of the things that strikes you after a long weekend in Mudgee is the entrepreneurial spirit, which sits nicely in a town with a population of not yet 9000. It’s home to a range of people doing interesting things, and rather than just read about them, if you’re so inclined you will probably meet them, because many work at the cellar door, behind the bar or shop counter, and offer farm tours or wine tastings. It’s indicative of a town that’s on the way somewhere rather than one that’s arrived, a tourist destination that plenty know about, but plenty don’t, full of people who make the tree change look not only possible but rather idyllic.”

Taking Nature Seriously birdwatching and our beautiful natural heritage ‘We drag ourselves away from our lodgings and drive to the Drip Gorge in the Goulburn River National Park. The Drip is Central NSW’s Katherine Gorge. A huge overhang shadows the river and moisture from the water table seeps through the rock and drips into it, hence the name’

Kris Ashton, Open Road, May/June 2011

eyond the tapestry of vineyards that marks the Mudgee Region as a famous wine destination, wild landscapes and peaceful waterways support a diversity of wildlife. This is a birdwatcher’s paradise – visit Dunn’s Swamp in World Heritage Wollemi National Park, Munghorn Nature Reserve and the Capertee Valley. The Cudgegong Field Naturalists are bird enthusiasts who meet informally and walk to a different part of the region on the second Sunday of every month. If you would like to join them, contact Allan Greer 0427 264 274 or John McCrea 0429 368 799. dunns Swamp in Wollemi national Park Part of the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage area, and on the Cudgegong River 25km east of Kandos and Rylstone, Dunns Swamp is an outstanding area for biodiversity of plant and animal communities. The area’s vegetation is dominated by Australia’s unique eucalypts (100 species) and other ancient relic species including the Wollemi Pine. A total of 107 birds species have been identified in Dunns Swamp, seven of which have been confirmed breeding. A full copy of the biodiversity of the area can be obtained from the National Parks office in Mudgee. This includes an updated list of breeding birds. munghorn nature Reserve 35km north east of Mudgee, Munghorn Nature Reserve is a renowned bird watching area where 160 bird species have been recorded. Species include lyrebirds, bowerbirds, emus as well as the endangered Regent Honey Eater. The reserve covers 6,800ha, borders the Goulburn River National Park and is botanically unique as it forms part of a transition zone between the SE and NW parts of the state. ‘The Drip’ Gorge Goulburn River: is a special place with a cathedral-like atmosphere.

The region’s historic villages Take a leisurely drive and discover the charm of the region’s outlying villages – enjoy a beer in a country pub, fossick for gold or enjoy the scenic natural beauty and surrounding national parks.

hARGRAVES 40km from Mudgee, Hargraves is often referred to as the veteran of the regions’ gold towns. The gold rush began there in 1851 with the discovery of the famous ‘Kerr’s Hundredweight’ – a nugget which contained 1272 ounces of gold. A surge of miners followed this discovery but those days are gone and nowadays the village is a quiet and peaceful village with a general store, post office and school.

WINDEYER Nestled in a beautiful valley 40km south west of Mudgee, Windeyer is steeped in history. Gold was discovered in 1851 and during that era it was common for fossickers to yield up to 4 ounces of gold per pan. The heritage listed 1911 Windeyer Hotel still operates, as does a caravan park where you can hire gold panning equipment. Some of the world’s best superfine wool comes from the district and in the early 1980s, one grazier’s bale was sold at auction to the highest price ever secured in Australia at the time.

“Days of glory…and Elvis - Gold-rush towns, galleries and echoes of the King lure Lee Atkinson away from the Mudgee wine trail’. Some perfectly preserved historical towns can look and feel like a theme park but in the old half-forgotten gold rush towns of NSW, such as Gulgong, the past doesn’t seem like such a different place, as I discovered on a five-day driving loop of the central west.”

Lee Atkinson, Sun Herald, October 2010

LUE The village of Lue can be described as the village that moved to fit the landscape. Pronounced ‘loo – ee’ and originally named Dungaree, it was moved to allow for the installation of the rail line 1884 when it was a busy little village on the route to the Hunter region. In its heyday, Lue boasted a bakery, hotel, blacksmith, two general stores, a product merchant and butcher. Today, there’s a pub, the unique Lue Pottery and some self contained and farm stay accommodation options.

WOLLAR Wollar is the gateway to the Goulburn River National Park. According to records, a noted pastoralist called Fitzgerald was one of the first settlers in Wollar who employed many shepherds and stockmen to supervise his cattle and sheep. The village was officially declared in March 1885. Wollar once boasted a butter factory and a bakery which allegedly was so good, the bread was carted back to Mudgee daily.

BYLONG The very picturesque Bylong Valley was first explored by William Lawson in 1822 after the discovery of the Goulburn River which was named after Henry Goulburn, the Colonial Secretary. In 1884, the Maitland Mercury ran a report describing the Bylong Valley thus: “as soon as the level country on the opposite side of the gap was reached, the appearance of the land was at once noticeable..the Bylong country appeared actually green, and how it preserves its colour, even in a dry season, is a mystery.” Today the Bylong valley is a lush and green area famous for racehorse and beef cattle studs. There is a general store, a school, a public hall and it is home to the famous Bylong Mouse Races which are held annually on the last Saturday of March.

GULGONG

Gulgong – a 19th century gold rush town “…. Gulgong, a 19th-century goldrush town, and in Mayne Street we step out of the car and back in time 50 years. In one shop window a display of toys and games from my childhood - Mr Potato Head, Kaboom, Mousetrap, Shaker Maker, Trouble stops me in my tracks. There is not a single electronic gadget among them and it’s a pleasant reminder of a more innocent era…”.

Michelle Rowe, The Weekend Australian ‘Travel & Indulgence’, December 2010

ulgong’s history is a fascinating one. The Rouses were early settlers who established Guntawang in 1822, but it wasn’t until 1870 when Tom Saunders discovered gold on Red Hill that Gulgong truly flourished. An estimated 20,000 people, lured by the prospect of a quickly amassed fortune, had flocked to the area and in 1872, this new tent settlement was surveyed as a town. The town became internationally famous, and despite the hardship of life on the goldfields and on the land, there developed a sense of camaraderie which is echoed in the writings of Henry Lawson. Gulgong has changed little since these times and is one of the most and attractive towns you’ll find – approximately 130 buildings are listed with the National Trust. The first thing you’ll notice is the narrow streets which wind between quaint clapboard and iron buildings complete with verandas and iron lace. The bends in the streets reflect the lines of the original tent lines.

Ask a local! For Visitor information, call into the Shanty – the historic visitor information centre at 66 Herbert Street, Gulgong Built between 1885 -1890, the cottage became home to local blacksmith in 1892 and it remained in the Gudgeon family until 1950. The Gulgong RSL bought the building in 1987 and today it remains its original charm and historic value. Visitors to the region can now access a range of local and regional information as well as a variety of handmade and unique giftware and souvenirs. Open Thursday -Monday from 10am – 3pm. At other times, visitor information is available at the RSL or at Cudgegong Gallery in Herbert St. call 02 6374 2691 gulgong@visitmudgeeregion.com.au

Visit the Prince of Wales Opera House where Nellie Melba once sang and Les Darcy last fought. This building, built in 1871 by John Hart Cogdon and known as Cogdon’s Assembly Rooms, is reputed to be the largest bark structure ever built. Today you’re more likely to experience the delights of performance poets during the Henry Lawson Heritage Festival, or a concert or a play put on by the local dramatic society. Thanks to a couple of young photographers, Gulgong is arguably the best documented town in country NSW. The famous ‘Holterman Collection’ of photographs was taken and collated by Charles Bayliss and Beaufoy Merlin. You can see these photos at the Pioneers Museum. This museum is an amazing achievement in itself. It covers an acre of ground and houses an astonishing array of Australiana. Mining equipment, horse drawn vehicles, cottages and a blacksmiths shop are among exhibits. There’s also museum of sight and sound which traces the history of films and sound recording over the decades. Every era of Gulgong’s history is preserved at the Pioneers Museum. You’ll also find a thriving arts community in and around Gulgong. Being world famous for its variety of usable clays, the town is home to a world class ceramic gallery, a gallery showcasing local art and a heritage shop which showcases the ancient craft of pewter smithing. You’ll also find some great cafes, an amazing discount store as well as clubs pubs and restaurants. Take a walk up to Flirtation Hill and enjoy a view of Gulgong and the outdoor mining museum at Red Hill. This outdoor sculptural attraction features a stamper, windlass, a slab hut school room and a relief map of the mining leads around the town. Get a copy of the Gulgong Symbol Trail and discover the Secret Language of the road. During the Great Depression and in gold rush times, people travelling country roads in search of work, food or just a place to sleep the night, used a secret code of symbols to communicate the ‘lie of the land’

GULGONG

to fellow travellers. This secret language was used internationally – by the tramps and gypsies of Europe to the hobos of America and the swaggies of Australia. It would also have been known to Henry Lawson and his mates who sought their fortune on the road. Chester Nealie, a local identity and well known Gulgong potter came up with a creative concept for decorative paving in Gulgong when approached by the council some years ago. His thoughts turned to these travellers’ symbols which he had discovered during his research. The symbols, of which Chester chose 16 from a possible 50 or so, were deemed appropriate for Gulgong’s gold rush and ‘battler’ past. Chester made the tiles from local materials in colours that reflect the land and each has a unique colour and texture. The Gulgong Symbol Trail comprises around 70 tiles, placed in a random ‘swaggering’ pattern throughout Mayne Street and Coronation Park – some in humorous locations. See if you can find the tiles as you wander the streets of Gulgong. Look out for the tiles that say ‘dangerous drinking water’ outside the pubs! Your trip to this part of Henry Lawson’s country would be incomplete without a visit to the Henry Lawson Centre. This beautifully curated collection is a repository of material related to the life and times of Henry Lawson. There are paintings, prints, books, photos and cuttings, relating not only to the author, but also to many parts of the region to which he vividly refers in his stories and poems. The collection, proudly preserved by the Henry Lawson Society, is the largest collection outside the Mitchell Library’s Sydney collection. The centre is a must visit for literary lovers or historians alike. You can even see the flour bin which was made by Henry’s father and referred to in the poem , ‘The flour bin’ – ‘on a dreary old selection, where times were dry and thin, in a slab and shingle kitchen, there stood a flour bin’. Don’t miss the memorial statue of Henry Lawson which stands proudly in the park between Medley and Herbert Streets in Gulgong .

Gulgong Bowling & Sporting Club We made the move from Sydney to Gulgong 18 months ago. It was refreshing for me to get back to a country town, however for Richard, it was a brand new experience. People stopping you in the street to say hi, even though you have never met them before, well wishes from locals for success in our new business and interest in our expanding family. It is wonderful to source quality produce to compliment our menu from the surrounding area. The lovely produce, superb wines and crisp clean country air have made it impossible for us to ever return to city life. Richard & Tamara Howarth The Muse Brasserie

KANDOS

Kandos once a private village

Ask a local!

Call into Dollars N Cents, 28 Angus Avenue Kandos for visitor information 7 days a week. Ph: 1800 816 304.

andos is a small town set beneath a grand mountain. Any artist will find ample material in the distinctive architecture of Kandos and its beautiful setting and surrounds. Built in the art deco age, Kandos has many fine examples of mission and classical revival architecture including the Good Samaritan Convent built in the Spanish Mission style and the Rotunda with its Grecian columns and domed roof. The Bicentennial Museum in Buchanan Street, formerly the Methodist church, is now on the Register of the National Estate. Built of concrete in the Californian ‘mission style’ it was furnished with comfortable sea-grass chairs. On a hot day it is the coolest place in Kandos and contains much of the town’s history, including the production of cement and coal, railway travel, domestic life and local and war history. Stargazers, birdwatchers and bushwalkers will find much to enjoy in this tranquil town. For the more active there is an Olympic swimming pool, a skateboard park and a cycle/ walking track to Rylstone and Charbon. Henbury golf course, designed by two famous golf architects in the 1930s is a challenging par 70/18-hole course. You can play at your leisure – no hold-ups, no pressure, no-one overtaking. Golfers are regularly enchanted by the stillness of dusk, the western sun burning the cliffs of the mountain range and kangaroos bounding across fairways. The town has a small but interesting range of country shops: old wares, homewares, clothes and gifts, ‘two-dollar’, vintage and a distinctive millinery. International food companies have not discovered Kandos. You’ll find our fast food outlets are better, and there is plenty of choice. For sit-down meals there is a range of informal restaurants. Small country prices for large country servings. Kandos began as a private village when a group of entrepreneurs recognized that natural deposits of limestone, coal and shale near a railway line could grow into a cement industry, and that a hill covered with dense scrub could grow into a town. After purchasing 100 acres they subdivided it into quarter acre blocks and lured other enterprising people to the first land sale on August 14, 1915. Within a decade, Kandos, the youngest centre in New South Wales, had a population of three thousand and a cement works that was the largest in the Southern Hemisphere, employing 450 men. Kandos continues to live up to a 1922 description in the Mudgee Guardian: ‘a rich treat in the lovely scenery which adorns and beautifies the rich landscape’. Be sure to collect copies of these informative brochures when you visit – ‘Come for a Walk Around Kandos’ and ‘What to Do in the Kandos Rylstone District’.

When we decided to buy a property 7 years ago, we started looking from Young and worked our way up to Coffs Harbour and as far west as Dubbo. We found a few properties that were of interest but it wasn’t until we looked at our current place that we really started to get serious. The scenery in the area is majestic and it really struck a chord with us when we first came here. Almost a year and a half from when we first inspected our property we had found a job and bought our dream life on 100acres. It is a fantastic area to raise a young family, the school is small enough to really care for each and every student. Kids are safe to walk to the school and play at local parks. Having property our family has enjoyed raising calves and kid goats and plenty of room to ride horses, motor bikes and walking around our land having many adventures. The towns are quaint and friendly everyone knows each other and it is great to know that where ever you go you will be greeted by friendly smiles, unlike in the ‘Big Smoke’ where everyone in is a rush and cant even give a simple ‘G’Day’. When circumstances changed in our life we decided to open a business in Kandos, Dollars N Cents and The DNC Cafe. That is now 4 years ago and since then we have evolved into an icon and invested in the region by becoming the local tourism outlet. Backed by Mudgee Tourism our information side of the business is getting bigger and better and we are so excited. We sell the area by its beautiful views, Dunns swamp via Kandos, the drives through Mudgee, Glen Davis and Bylong. The wineries of the region and the different shopping that Kandos has to offer visitors as well as locals. We’ve talked to people from Tas, S.A, Qld and all over NSW. We hope to enjoy a cuppa and a chat with you in Kandos in the near future, and as we always like to Say, Call in and say ‘G’day!’

RYLSTONE

Rylstone sandstone buildings and tree lined streets “From the kangaroos welcoming me at Roo Treat on Sat afternoon and the gorgeous, uniqueness of this accommodation; to learning about and appreciating the history and industry around Rylstone-Kandos including the Cottage Museum and Bridgeview Inn; to the cruise on Dunns Swamp and diving through the Capertee Valley on a helicopter…”

Angela Saurine, Sunday Telegraph, June 2011

ettled in the 1830s, Rylstone is one of the most picturesque towns in the region, and one of the oldest settlements west of the Great Dividing Range. It has retained its historic 19th Century character in its architecture – old sandstone buildings and wide streets, beautiful plane trees and quaint shops and cafes give the town its villagey atmosphere and aesthetic appeal.

police complex (constable’s house and lockup, sergeant’s house and courthouse), and the expost office, all built in stone between 1872 and 1885. Don’t forget to visit or picnic in the lovely showground on the banks of the Cudgegong River, in which platypus can still be spotted if you’re lucky. The colourful Rylstone-Kandos Show is the last Saturday in February every year.

The entire downtown is in a heritage conservation zone, and many of the historic buildings in the main street feature heritage plaques. Pick up a copy of the self-guided Rylstone Historic Walk and explore the village on foot. Stroll past the four churches, two hotels,

Rylstone was originally a centre for agriculture which began in the early 1800s. It’s still that centre but now offers all the services the local community and the visitor would expect – excellent cafés and coffee, traditional pubs, boutique shopping, olive oil and wine tasting

outlets. Add to that mix some of the most spectacular scenery in the region, and you have a perfect spot to relax and unwind or to get energetic and head off into Wollemi National Park to bushwalk, swim, canoe or paddle at the spectacular Dunns Swamp. The NSW heritage-listed Bridge View Inn is open to the public 7 days a week and offers visitors a chance to see some of the interior of an 1872 Inn, where scenes from ‘The Chant of Jimmy Blacksmith’ were filmed. Visit the Rylstone Artisan & Produce Markets on the 2nd Saturday of each month. For dates and details, find them on Facebook.

ART GALLERIES & STUDIOS

Galleries & art creativity is in the soil

ong famous for its clays and the ceramics of Gulgong, the Mudgee Region is home to artists of all hues. From felt to photography, paintings, sculpture, jewellery, textiles, metal work and woodwork, you’re sure to find a unique piece of art. Call into one of our galleries or studios and you’ll be stunned by the range of talent. Local wineries embrace local art and you will often find fabulous art on the walls or in the gardens at the vineyards. September is a great month to visit as it’s Wine Festival and art is everywhere! Often the Farmers Markets combine with local artists and combine forces to showcase a variety of local talent so keep any eye on the events calendar at www.visitmudgeeregion.com.au. Visit the newly established Rylstone Artisan and Produce Markets which are held monthly on the 2nd Saturday. Follow them on Facebook!

“Art, wine and wit, Lance Richardson follows an inspirational trail through the towns of the central west. Mudgee has long played host to the appreciative gourmand. A 3½ hour drive from Sydney, it offers all the trimmings of a world-class wine region with 40 wineries and cellar doors nestled in a stunning landscape of Australian bush…. But there’s another element to the blend that makes up the vibrant community here. Artists have flocked to the region for years or been made by it. Creativity is in the soil (literally, for the potters).

Sydney Morning Herald ‘Traveller’, Lance Richardson, October 2010

W W W. V I S I T M U D G E E R E G I O N . C O M . AU

I arrived in Mudgee in 1990 and have no plans of moving on. The town is a refuge for me and is a little like an old armchair, it knows you and is ever so comfortable. The four seasons that bring such spectacular visual changes and exciting events, reflect the town’s huge appeal and adds great energy. The seasonal colours and influences on the hills around Mudgee add to the magnetism of the region. I have watched Mudgee evolve in these years, to become not only a town exhibiting great energy and charm but a town that values its identity. This identity and the friendly manner of Mudgee people is what makes a visit to Mudgee very special. Over the past three years I have had the joy of establishing and running Fairview ArtSpace, a contemporary concept in a heritage building located at the doorway to many of our wonderful wineries. I have the sense of building something very special at Fairview ArtSpace. Sharing the arts with community and visitors to the region with exhibitions by local, regional and visiting artists; fostering young artists, encouraging appreciation and participation in the arts; running workshops in many different mediums; cultural evenings and trips away to ensure people have access to arts and events. All of these elements are building blocks that help to round off the experience for those who live in and for those who visit Mudgee. Exposure to the cultural elements is quintessential to a happy and complete existence. Mudgee is visually appealing, and each of your other senses will be stimulated once you have experienced a visit to the region. Arts, wine, food, heritage buildings, energy...a great beginning!

Helen Harwood

LOCAL PRODUCE

The tablelands of plenty, take a little more time to appreciate Mudgee’s many charms. While the Mudgee winescape has retained much of the character of smaller, more adventurous producers exploring emerging varieties, big money has moved here, too…. And for the ultimate paddock to plate experience, visit Mudgee on the third weekend of every month and follow Saturday’s farmers’ market and cellar door tastings with Sunday’s Farm Walks, talking and tasting olive oils, cheeses, vegetables and preserves with producers for whom they’re a passion and a livelihood” The Sydney Morning Herald, Good Living, Rob Ingram, August 2010

Local produce, farmers markets, farm walks and gastronomic delights T

he region boasts a thriving food scene with monthly farmers markets and a diverse range of cafes and restaurants in Gulgong , Kandos, Mudgee and Rylstone. The production of food in the area has a long history and dates back to 1884 when the railway line was completed. Locally grown vegetables and dairy products were sent to Sydney on a daily basis. Due to the fertility of the Cudgegong River flats, fat lamb production was a major industry as were orchards growing a range of stone fruits and grapes. Now the region is a major producer of olives and high quality olive oils. The annual Mudgee Olive Show is conducted by Olive Growers Mudgee Association. Industry experts are invited to judge a range of quality oils which are then awarded medals, just like the wines. Along with quality olive oils, the region is now renowned for tapenades, honey, hazelnuts and pistachios, jams, wine jellies, pestos and salad dressings and a range of marinades. Goat, sheep and cow’s milk cheeses can be tasted at a factory or a farm gate. Lamb, beef, free range pork, yabbies and venison are being bred and used on menus at a range of cafes and restaurants. Take a farm walk, go to the monthly farmers market or dine at a local eatery. You won’t be disappointed, as there are cafes and restaurants to cater for all palates and all purses.

You’ll be spoiled for choice! All your favorite Mudgee brands – full of flavor, free of artificial inputs, many suitable for the dietary challenged. Indulge in old favorites, discover new tastes and fresh combinations at our well run tasting tables. Use our tips and recipes to enhance healthy eating enjoyment.

I’m kicking myself I didn’t migrate to Mudgee years ago. Instead, I stayed in the city and became grumpy. After two years, I’ve made up for lost time – enjoying wholeheartedly the ever-changing seasons, stunning landscape and the warm, welcoming and industrious Mudgee people who’ve made my transition from manic careerist to mellow retiree so easy and pleasurable. Did I say ‘retire’? Mudgee and most particularly the Mudgee Fine Foods group, have encouraged this former magazine food editor (and her advertising creative director husband) to launch new and rejuvenating ventures. Watch out for us at the Farmer’s Markets each month, selling our chilli relish to appreciative locals and visitors alike who enjoy fine food and a friendly chat. I’ve never been busier, fitter nor more content. I can and do recommend Mudgee to everyone. Linda Wilson Linda’s Red Hot Sweet Chilli Relish

LOCAL PRODUCE

Just five minutes from Mudgee ‘The Olive Nest’ is a must see for visitors to Mudgee. Here you can see the press where the oils are produced and gain a greater understanding of the oils and their usage. We have a wide range of extra virgin & infused olive oils, olives, tapenades, salad dressings, mayonnaise, soaps, pottery and olive-themed giftware.

Having grown up in Sydney’s Kings Cross, moving to Mudgee was more than your average tree change, but it is the best thing we have ever done. The simple things are the best like going to the races on a clear winters day then walking back into town and having a beer with your winnings, in front of the fire at the pub, or a drive to Rylstone for Narlan’s delicious dumplings. Drop into the Lue pub on the way and have a quick one with Renee. Say hello on Twitter @butchershopcafe.

“Chic Magnet – savvy tree-changers have given Mudgee a makeover making it a great destination for those who like to shop, sip and sleep in style”. Brisbane News, David May, August 2010

W W W. V I S I T M U D G E E R E G I O N . C O M . AU

I’m a baby boomer and grew up enjoying the freedom of playing outside until called in for dinner. Childhood for me was exploring nature’s wonderland and soaking in its lessons. Forty-seven years ago my husband and I moved to Mudgee and once again I was able to enjoy the freedom, to see, feel and hear all that nature provides so freely to each and everyone one of us. But there was more, much more. The diversity of this amazing Shire never ceases to amaze me. So much to see, to do, to taste and to touch. The seasons in Mudgee are also true to their word. Crisp, crunchy mornings with blue skies in winter, autumn is ablaze of colours, summer brings to mind families relaxing under glorious river gums and spring, everywhere you see the smiling faces of flowers .. in the streets, in our parks, throughout the countryside. And everyone says “hello”.

“TRAVEL MUDGEE - Bountiful returns from innovators - A short stay in this central NSW region will only whet your appetite, writes Katrina Strickland. One of the things that strikes you after a long weekend in Mudgee is this entrepreneurial spirit, which sits nicely in a town with a population of not yet 9000. It’s home to a range of people doing interesting things, and rather than just read about them, if you’re so inclined you will probably meet them, because many work at the cellar door, behind the bar or shop counter, and offer farm tours or wine tastings. It’s indicative of a town that’s on the way somewhere rather than one that’s arrived, a tourist destination that plenty know about, but plenty don’t, full of people who make the tree change look not only possible, but rather idyllic.” ‘Life and Leisure’ Australian Financial Review, Katrina Strickland, August 2010.
