Distillers Opportunity

The Travellers Rest Hotel is an iconic 1937 pub, offering food, accommodation and bar facilities in Thorpdale (West Gippsland). The pub is under new ownership and is opening soon. We have an opportunity for an interested party to establish a business relationship from the very beginning of this journey.

While wanting to re-establish a presence for the local community, we also want the pub to be emblematic of Gippsland by focusing on local food, craft beer and spirits. By working with the Baw Baw shire, we want to become a draw card for visitors out of area.

To contribute to this new focus, the beer garden, entrance and internal areas are undergoing a makeover.

The Hotel has a brilliant cellar which is ripe for a brewery or distillery on a rental or joint venture basis.

It has character and accessibility and once we are out of lockdown will be a good source of attraction for Melbourne day trippers.

If you have the interest in starting your own business or want to explore opportunities with the use of the space reach out by email jilljepson@travellersresthotel.com
