Fine Dining

Many hotel groups offer on-property dining but not many can boast true gourmet experiences.

From the magnificent modern Australian cuisine of Restaurant Botanica at Spicers Vineyards Estate, to the Australian-grown Wagyu served at Cotton’s Restaurant at Spicers Hidden Vale, to the famous seven course degustation menu of Spicers Peak Lodge Restaurant, the food at Spicers Retreats, Hotels and Lodges provides not just a reason to visit but a reason to return.

And one of the main reasons for each restaurant’s success is our team of award-winning chefs who champion the finest ingredients and create distinctive dishes for each property.
