Kevington Hotel, Kevington VIC

Something different this weekend stayed at the Kevington Hotel in the “honeymoon suite” well that's what I told Linda! with some other friends Scott & Sue and Wayne and his daughter Hanna. We met up at Marysville for a coffee and donouts around 9:30 on Saturday morning and spent some time around town searching for an ATM (my fault we hand no $$) we headed off on our journey.

The weather report for the day was looking pretty sad with a major cold front moving through the area and one website was still advising that the main road we needed to travel “Woods Point Road” was closed but the adventurous we are we set off regardless not long into the drive we came across our the first signs of snow heading past the Lake Mountain turn off. (We had never travelled this way before) and were certainly looking forward to the trip

Lunch stop was at the Matlock picnic area consisting of 12v oven hot pies and sausage rolls while watching a passing snow storm. Back in the cars towards Kevington stopping at the Woods Point pub for a customary beer and scotch and a pic in front of the well photographed petrol bowser at “Woods point” (see photo)

Arrived at the “Kevington” late afternoon sat by the bar for the best part of the afternoon (well all afternoon) then off to the restaurant for a good feed and lots of laughs followed by more drinks. Back to the bar for more laughs then off to bed around 10pm (we think)

The rooms were not to usual high standard that Linda expects but very cozy and quite warm during the night, so warm that I noticed in the morning that the window was wide open, heater off and Linda complaining how hot it got during the night

We were up around 7ish and then off to Jamieson for breakfast @ Debs bakery (Now top of Linda’s well-travelled bakeries) after a lazy breakfast it was over the top of the Big River range to Eildon Township where we took some time to drive around and then found a little spot for a picnic lunch next to the pondage.

After lunch and drove through Alexandra arriving home early afternoon to reflect on a great 2 days away with fantastic company and, now planning next weekend at Torquay!!!!
