WILD BEAUTY
From sophisticated wineries and vineyards to the wild beauty and indigenous creatures of the Grampians National Park – with an exclusive, refined hotel thrown in for good measure.
You stand shoulder deep in the infinity edge swimming pool drinking in a view stretching far over the Wartook Valley towards the Grampians National Park, with its soaring mountains, vast sweeps of rolling bush and dramatic valleys. In the foreground a grazing kangaroo – one of a sizeable mob – pauses, stands upright, scans the surrounding countryside with one revolving ear and calmly returns your stare.
Visit the Meringa Springs Hotel during your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Australia and you’re likely to see more kangaroos, wallabies, possums and interesting birds than people. This unpretentious gem of a hotel only welcomes 10 guests at any one time. Giving you virtually uninterrupted access to the glorious swimming pool, the cosy lounge and, of course, the wildlife of the Grampians National Park

The service we received from The Ultimate Travel Company was second to none. Tania took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and helped us explore every option clearly and thoroughly. Her first-hand knowledge of Kenya and safaris made a real difference – she explained everything brilliantly. The thoughtful extras, like the travel wallet and documents, were such a lovely touch – especially for someone who loves to travel well-organised! Thank you so much. We’ll definitely be back for future adventures.
We had a wonderful safari experience in South Luangwa, Zambia this September. Despite a few unexpected setbacks behind the scenes, everything ran seamlessly for us. Our driver and guide were outstanding, and the standard of accommodation was truly first class.
