This issue we’ve travelled from coast to coast to find the most inspirational stories about country people and their homes and lifestyles.

We catch up with soft furnishings and accessories importer Kirsty Turnbull before we take a detour to a spectacularly located home and self-contained cottage accommodation at Berry on the NSW south coast and a bright and beautiful retreat at Montville in the hills behind Queensland’s Sunshine Coast.

Our garden story returns to Mica Grange at Castlemaine in Victoria, while our food files joins southern Riverina sheep farmer Anna Kelly as she hosts a weekend lunch at her family’s holiday home on Victoria’s Great Ocean Road. Our cooking feature explores the humble leek and our service feature focuses on outdoor furniture. Plus we head to Central Otago in New Zealand’s South Island for a secluded break.

Join us for the latest issue of Australian Country, on sale until October 29.
