Brae

Good Food Guide 2020 Restaurant of the Year. Set on a hillside in Birregurra, Victoria, Brae is a contemporary restaurant and six luxury guest suites, on a working organic farm – a place to be immersed in nature and eat from the land. An ever-changing set menu incorporates produce from Brae Farm, the surrounding land and local, ethical producers to showcase a unique Australian cuisine built around an immense respect for nature and seasonality. Organic principles are employed at Brae Farm to produce seasonal vegetables, fruits, nuts, berries, olives, and wheat grain. Chickens provide free range eggs, while bees produce honey and assist with pollination. The property and its food production, which forms the focus of the daily menu, is designed for guests to explore, with walking paths and signage assisting to reconnect visitors to their food and the place it comes from. Six spacious, eco-friendly guest suites reflect Brae’s natural surrounds. Each suite features a king bed, organic cotton bed linen, star-gazing sky light, Melbourne-made Tait outdoor furniture and Jardan sofas, Thorens turntable and record collection, cocktail bar, temperature controlled wine fridge, underfloor heating, bath with views to the rolling hills of The Otways and private outdoor areas. Due to current health advice on social distancing, please contact the business for the most up to date information regarding opening times and services.
