Basils Farm is a working farm with a vineyard and restaurant at Swan Bay on Victoria's Bellarine Peninsula, serving seasonal dishes made with produce grown in its own gardens alongside wines made on the property. For weddings it offers views over Swan Bay toward Queenscliff, plus a cottage, lawns, vines and landscaped gardens that can serve as settings for photographs.

Good to know

  • Producer's licence: serves its own wine, beer or cider

Licence details from the Liquor Control Victoria register (CC BY 4.0); the venue sets its own wedding finish time. Check the details with the venue when you enquire.

When to go
