MORNINGTON PENINSULA
Combine the best of Europe's coastal living with traditional Aussie charm on the Mornington Peninsula, just an hour from Melbourne. Explore the galleries, spas and cafes in breezy seaside villages, or escape to the hinterland for gourmet delights at boutique wineries.
Follow back roads past organic farms to breakfast in a gourmet cafe, waterside lunch and languorous dinner at a winery restaurant.
Call in at any of the 50-plus boutique cellar doors and let local winemakers pour you a glass of famed pinot noir or cool-climate chardonnay.
Restore balance to your life with some pampering at luxurious day spas with myriad treatments and massages, or at naturally heated thermal springs.
Tee off to the tune of the thundering Bass Strait on a course that's bound to impress, with eight of Australia's top fifty courses at your feet.
