    LOCAL, FAMILY-OWNED BEEF

    This is a snapshot of our cattle breeding process and the source of "Baroola steak" supplied to our hotel restaurants. Our bulls are highly accredited and purchased from the highest ranking wagu studs, their working life last about seven years. The female portion of the herd is also purchased from the angus studs. This union results in a first cross wagu/angus beast. This steak inherits the marbling properties of the wagu plus the unique taste of grass fed angus resulting in a tender mouth watering steak. The cattle are processed at Cowra abattoirs then sent to Sydney where they are processed and aged for up to sixty days then served at our hotel restaurants.

    Convict hand huened Sydney basin sandstone built in 1826 was the original grand old residence of Solomon Wiseman. The sandstone walls are still intact put together with mortar made from cooked oysters shells, the hand huened rafters are all exposed with some of the original shingles and plaster lining. It is one of the few buildings left standing in Australia of this age. Kate Grenfell’s novel the secret river is based on this home.
