Spring Spur is a working horse property, with 6 guest suites, a fully equipped commercial kitchen and bar, and a complementing garden where we employ organic principles to produce seasonal fruits, vegetables, citruses, berries and olives. Our set menu changes weekly and incorporates produce grown here at Spring Spur and supplemented by surrounding local farms, grown and raised by ethical and sustainable farmers to showcase the unique Alpine produce built on an immense respect for the environment.
The Spring Spur Kitchen operates Thursday to Sunday nights. These are a truly unique dining experience where we invite guests, family and friends to sit down together on our Long Table and enjoy quality food and wine, and share stories and songs.
*We cater to most dietary requirements, so please contact us about your needs and we will endeavour to design a special option if the set menu does not meet your dietary needs.
The veggie garden has always been a way of life for the Baird family, originating from Kath, who was determined to feed her growing boys healthy organic produce. It continues to be a source of sustenance for the ever growing Baird family, and a main feature of our cooking in the homestead meals we produce for our guests – from homegrown spuds carried into the bush by sturdy pack horse, freshly cut herb focaccia or raspberry jam toast with your morning coffee, to the simple delight of biting into a crispy apple straight from the tree. The garden is ever-changing with the seasons and evolves every year into something completely unique, you simply can’t beat homegrown for taste!

Kath and Steve Baird settled in Tawonga with their two young boys Lin and Clay in 1986. They arrived with a truck load of horses and a vision for a family business that would honour the traditions of the High Country horse and offer unique quality visitor experiences. That vision still drives this family business. Spring Spur is truly the home of Bogong Horseback Adventures, the Baird family sanctuary, and for the visitor, a country home away from home.
