Lake House shines at The Gourmet Traveller Restaurant Guide & Wine List Awards.

2015 is the beginning of the fourth decade at Lake House. Since Alla and Allan Wolf-Tasker first opened the doors on their country restaurant in 1984 the focus has been on offering guests a great experience and sense of place in country Victoria. The focus has always on the best possible produce, service and attention to detail. Thirty years later and the property is still at the top of its game; winning a raft of national and international awards and accolades; most recently from the The Australian Wine List of the Year Awards and The Gourmet Traveller Restaurant Awards.

“The seasons have always been keenly felt at Lake House; but presently there’s greater change afoot, with a fresh aperitivo bar, lake-view deck and private dining room breathing new life into this grand old dame.”
The Gourmet Traveller Restaurant Guide

The Lake House Team have never been known to rest on their laurels and so after a bit of celebration it’s back to work for the 120 strong crew who include a large number Daylesford locals as well as hospitality professionals from around the world. 2015 and 2016 will see Lake House continue to evolve. Stay tuned for news of the expanding (& already successful) Cooking School at Lake House program, The Waterfront Pavilion and the rebuild of the Lodge….. But in the meantime settle in and indulge in the contemporary, sumptuous surrounds of The new Argyle Library Bar at Lake House. With soft grey studded leather couches, citrus velvet armchairs and unique rotating art exhibitions from some of the region’s famed sculptors, painters and glass blowers; this intimate space is the newest addition to the Lake House offering.
