Located just off the main road through town and clearly marked, this TIC was very helpful. They have a large selection of brochures about the wineries and menus from most of the local restaurants.

We experienced a lot of help from the staff in finding accommodation for us. The info centre was very very interesting & the displays & old photos had us wanting to go back to have another look. Best info centre we have ever been in.

Worth a visit if you are looking for brochures and accommodation. I asked for an accommodation leaflet and I was promptly handed one but there was no further help to assist me in finding accommodation. There is a lot of printed information so worth a visit.
