It may be in the middle of nowhere, but it's a bloody good pub!…read more Radio Springs is the most fantastic and weird mix of a tiny little local, constantly buzzing with the inhabitants of Lyonville, and quite a fancy restaurant, offering some pretty delicious (though not super cheap) dinner options. I had the steak with garlic sauce which was pretty damn drool worthy. The chips & vegies on the side were great too. Radio Springs is a little bit like visiting someone's house- you can sit on the open verandah area and have a beer if the weather is nice, feast on dinner around the fireplace with a live band in the background if that's what suits, or head around to the red room at the back, where you'll feel transported to a different era in the rather elegant and dimly lit dining room. This one is worth a visit for the overall experience. Don't expect a regular restaurant as this place is in a world of it's own, but I'm not complaining!

The music is ragtime and 1940s things and the bartender is nowhere to be seen. It's only when the song had finished and one of hem stands up and walks round the other side of the counter that it sinks in. This is pub full if the most intimate of locals, locals from all around. There are actual hotel facilities (unlike several places in Melbourne called a Hotel, which are in fact only a pub). From what I heard they're reasonable rooms and in nice surroundings when the sun's up.

This is the best place to stay in the area from Sunbury to Riddells Creek. Highly recommended. You…read morewill enjoy this place.

It is only a short walk around the corner from Main Street making it nice and convenient. The owner is friendly and welcoming giving it a bed and breakfast feel. He was very accommodating and changed us to a bigger room without us even asking when he knew we had a travel cot. What we found especially appealing was the ability to book for just one night on the weekend - something many other options didn't provide. The king deluxe room we had was large, well equipped, clean and tidy which at the price range easily met our expectations.
