The Yarra Valley edge: Coldstream and Yarra Glen
Just beyond Lilydale the suburbs give way to vineyards. Coldstream sits on the Maroondah Highway among cellar doors and restaurants, and Yarra Glen, on the Melba Highway, has a country racecourse, a grand old hotel and rolling hills of vines around it. Hot air balloons drift over the valley at dawn on still mornings, and the whole region is a favourite for weekends away.
A day at the wineries followed by a night in a lodge or a cottage is one of the most popular reasons to book a companion for a longer time. Melbourne escorts who offer extended bookings are often happy to travel out to the valley, though it is an out-call from the city or the outer east and needs planning. Agree on the itinerary, who drives, and the shape of the evening before the day.
Remember that wine tasting and driving do not mix; many visitors book a driver or a tour, or stay overnight so nobody has to drive back. The Maroondah Highway is the direct route from Ringwood, and traffic heading to the valley is heavy on Saturday mornings.
