Construction of the highly anticipated Apple Thief Cider House is now complete and a date has been set for the official opening!

Following the impact of the 2020 bushfires, the Batlow community has been gradually finding its feet, bringing new hope and purpose for the Snowy Valleys township. There is a strong sense of positivity at 4066 Batlow Road, where local tradespeople have been diligently working to construct the new Apple Thief Cider House.

After bushfires devastated the Batlow region in 2020, Dave Purcell, orchardist and founder of The Apple Thief Cider, was determined to help his community and the local orchard industry recover and grow. Four years on, construction has now commenced on The Apple Thief Cider House – an ambitious new visitor destination in the Snowy Valleys.
