Swagman Country Dining brings you a true taste of Australia with sumptuous, meats and vegetables infused with unique and wonderful flavours of Australian bush herbs and spices, the majority are grown on the property. Our concept is proudly brought to you by the vision of Sandy Retallick who was inspired to use native bush plants to create unique flavours. The Retallick family have dedicated the last two decades to rewilding much of their 600 acres of land and preserving native species of both fauna and flora. Chef Jay and Chef Sam work passionately in collaboration with Sandy to bring this vision to fruition by developing irresistible flavours to Swagman. Our wonderful front of house and kitchen staff play an important role in bringing you a memorable experience.

We had a great experience here at the swagman country dining, the food is top class and the chef is very personable and our waitress was right on the ball given she was very busy. Great spot, great food and service. Hurry up and book!
