Mornington Peninsula
A country-house hotel in Red Hill set in gardens and vineyards.
The Mornington Peninsula is a hook of land south of Melbourne, with Port Phillip Bay on one side and the wild Bass Strait on the other. Pinot Noir vineyards fill the hills of Red Hill and Merricks, hot springs sit near Rye, and the accommodation ranges from a black-walled design hotel to vineyard villas and a country manor.
Stay in the Merricks and Red Hill area for cellar doors and restaurants, or near Sorrento and Flinders for the coast.
It is about an hour and a half from Melbourne by car, so a weekend works well. Summer is the busiest time at the beaches.
