Greenock Accommodation, Hotels, Tours & Information
Greenock
Nestled in the heart of western Barossa, Greenock is a picturesque village sometimes referred to as a ムlittle Scotland in the Barossa'. The name Greenock literally means ムsunny hill' and is derived from the Gaelic, Grain (meaning sun) and Cnoc (which means hill). The town's oval, with its magnificent restored grandstand hosts some of the region's most competitive cricket and soccer matches and the shady recreation park is a popular spot for picnics and gatherings. The village green is a popular spot in the centre of town where once a year the town comes alive with the energy and power of the Tour Down Under which races by, giving the world a glimpse of this beautiful piece of the Barossa. The silos, mill and wheat store are still standing, reminiscent of the days when Greenock served as a hub for the grain trade and farming community. Time has passed, but Greenock still has a comfortable village feel, with the local tavern being the regular meeting place for many locals. Travellers are guaranteed a warm welcome whether or not they are staying in the region or just passing through. In recent years, Greenock has developed into a popular destination for those wanting to experience something a little different with ムolde worlde' charm. Greenock is home to a new boutique beer brewery, the Barossa Brewing Company. Located in the historic 1860s wheat store it is open for tastings and sales on weekends, with the owners happy to give visitors a tour, if they are interested. Another great place to visit and linger is Murray Street Vineyards; its cellar door is set in the centre of a working winery and opens onto a decking with vineyards so close you could reach out and touch them. For most days of the year, visitors can taste some of their unique wines and indulge in delicious local produce and cheese platters or a freshly brewed coffee; it is total decadence!
