This is Heritage with Style

Just 3.5 hours from Sydney, this picturesque pocket of Central West NSW offers the kind of effortless charm that high-end escapes are made of. Here, time slows, the wine flows, and every corner whispers stories from the past - layered with the comforts of today.

From the moment you arrive, Millthorpe greets you with manicured gardens, charming courtyards, and bluestone-lined streets that lead you straight into a scene from a country daydream. It’s warm, elegant, and quietly captivating - the perfect blend of historic beauty and indulgent discovery.

Where Style Meets Spirit

There’s something truly special about a village where every shop, every smile, and every perfectly preserved building tells its own story. Millthorpe’s boutique scene is a delightful mix of artisan design and curated charm. You'll find handcrafted jewellery, art, locally made fashion, and beautiful pieces that elevate the everyday.

Wander into Hive Grove, Millthorpe Blue, or Plants & Pretty Pieces for inspired finds - where each item feels selected just for you. This isn’t fast shopping. It’s thoughtful, personal, and full of treasures you’ll want to take home.

Ready to unwind? Book in for a restorative treatment at Healing Touch. Let the stress melt away with a facial or massage in a soothing setting, before heading back out for an afternoon of slow wandering, wine tasting, or simply soaking in the fresh country air.

Sip & Savour

Small but sophisticated, Millthorpe delivers big on flavour. Start your tasting journey at Angullong Wines, a beautiful bluestone cellar door where cool-climate drops are poured by people who know and love the land.

Then make your way to Tamburlaine Organic Wines, where sustainability meets style. With live music, generous pours, and a welcoming vibe, you’ll feel like you’ve stumbled onto a local secret.

If you’re in the mood to stay awhile, Slow Wine Co is the place to linger. Their tapas-style share plates are made for grazing - with cheeses, olives, and seasonal bites served up in a relaxed, wine-soaked setting. Whether you’re with your girlfriends or on a romantic weekend, every sip feels like an exhale.

Dining to Delight

Mornings here are slow and special. Start at Millthorpe Providore or The Old Mill Café, where flaky pastries, silky flat whites, and the gentle charm of village life set the tone for the day.

When it’s time to dine, Tonic Restaurant leads the way. An award-winning destination in its own right, it’s where acclaimed chef Tony Worland transforms seasonal produce into something unforgettable. Think tender lamb, heirloom vegetables, rich sauces, and show-stopping desserts. It's the kind of place where courses effortlessly into conversations, and the final bite lingers long after the meal.

A Creative Heart

Millthorpe’s soul is found not just in its history, but in its creativity. Local galleries like Capell Road Art and Rosebank Gallery showcase artists who capture the essence of the region. Whether you’re admiring or making, there’s inspiration around every corner.

Stay a Little Longer

If ever there was a village made for weekend escapes, it’s Millthorpe.

For a refined country retreat, Paddington Grove is set on five serene acres just minutes from the village. Enjoy a complimentary bottle of local wine on arrival, luxe linen, and the kind of star-filled nights city lights could never offer.

In the heart of town, The Speckled Nest charms with rose gardens and a sunlit verandah perfect for a quiet morning coffee. Add Pym23 to your list for its chic interiors and tranquil setting - ideal for close friends or couples looking to unwind in style.

Heritage cottages, boutique B&Bs, and guesthouses rich in character all offer plush beds, thoughtful design, and fireplaces you’ll want to curl up beside. Every stay is a warm embrace with just the right amount of polish.

Events to Remember

Plan your trip around one of Millthorpe’s signature events for an extra layer of charm. In spring, the Millthorpe Garden Ramble opens gates to some of the region’s most beautiful private gardens. Or browse artisan stalls and taste your way through the Millthorpe Markets, held twice a year.

No matter the season, Millthorpe knows how to put on a show. Autumn blazes gold across the village. Winter wraps it in a fireside glow. Spring bursts into bloom. And summer brings long lunches, rosé at dusk, and fairy lights strung through balmy evenings.

A Hidden Gem Awaits

With its rare blend of elegance, character and connection, Millthorpe is the kind of place you visit once - and then can’t stop recommending.

So pack your weekender. Gather your favourite people. Whether you're here for a girls’ getaway or a romantic countryside escape, Millthorpe is waiting - ready to spoil you with warm hospitality and a little luxury at every turn.

This is heritage with style.
