Trentham is making an impression across the Tasman. @‌nzherald sent writer Jade Raykovski to spend a weekend in Trentham, and the resulting piece reads like a love letter to our beautiful town.

Georgia + Calvin’s wedding was as individual as they are, and we loved every bit of it. And them ❤️ The Cosmopolitan Cottage provided a special space for photos and pre-wedding prep, view all details for our wedding services via our website.

The Cosmo has recently been featured as one of the “10 country pubs across Victoria with the best pints and parmas” in the House and Garden Country Style segment.

We’re proud to be featured in Sitchu.Melbourne's latest article “Soul of the Town: The Best Country Pubs in Victoria” by Kelsey Harrington - recognising some of the state’s finest regional pubs.

We are absolutely thrilled to be awarded SILVER at the National Restaurant & Catering Hostplus Awards for Excellence.

Drive about 87km north-west of Melbourne and you’ll end up in the small, boutique town of Trentham, fiercely focused on regionality and proud of Victoria’s abundant produce. That pride is perfectly echoed at the treasured Cosmopolitan Hotel, which puts just as much focus on its top-quality wines as it does exceptional food.

The Cosmopolitan Hotel celebrates the beauty of regional Victoria. With its dedication to local produce and a commitment to fostering a vibrant community spirit, this beloved establishment continues to be a beacon of hospitality and charm in Trentham.

The owner of Kate's favourite pub in country Vic, Rod Hughes explains the secrets behind the success of Trentham’ Cosmopolitan Hotel.

Best described as a sprawling, massive timber Ponderosa, the Cosmo’s glorious exterior screams old world, the heritage colours so in step with its surrounds. Inside, it is timber throughout the well-spaced front bar, interesting prints on the walls, a level dining room, another area to the right of the bar for dining/functions and then to the prettiest beer garden, which truly is a beer national park.

Ensuring dishes and combinations are sound, while taking food on an evolutionary path has its challenges. It’s a real balancing act to not over play your hand. How do you strike a balance between innovations and tradition? Priya Ranjan (Cosmopolitan Hotel, Trentham) joins us to share his wisdom on dishing up one of the most creative pub menus in the country.

We’re proud to share that The Cosmopolitan Hotel has been awarded Best Restaurant in a Pub/Club at the 2025 REST Awards for Excellence in Victoria.

Keep the glowing Trentham reviews rolling, word has clearly got out! Thanks to Delicious Travel for including Trentham in their recent article “11 of the best towns for eating & drinking in Victoria”.

This Top Tiny Town award is certainly drawing a few more eyes toward Trentham! Thrilled to see the news picked up by a publication like Sitchu Melbourne.

We’ve always known Trentham was something special, but it’s a real honour to see our whole town celebrated in The Australian “Perfect 10” series.

Nestled on the edge of the Wombat State Forest, this charming town boasts a goldrush-era streetscape and is a popular weekend getaway. Tucked away in Victoria’s central highlands, it's just over an hour northwest of Melbourne.
