Chris Dittmar goes in search of the best steak in the South East. The Barn is a steakhouse, accommodation and function venue, with a reputation for the finest steaks in the region. Their specialty is meat which has been aged for eight weeks or longer. They believe that like a good red wine, it improves with age and when seared over hot Mallee coals, it's a combination hard to beat. The Barn also features newly renovated deluxe rooms - equipped with all the mod cons and set amongst acres of historic gardens for guests to wander and explore.
