Marshall White Flinders

Flinders has always occupied a slightly different place on the Mornington Peninsula. It is a village rather than a resort town. A place where the coast meets farmland, where vineyards and paddocks sit behind rugged cliffs and beaches, and where some of the Peninsula’s most beautiful homes are often hidden well away from the road.

Red Hill Lavender Farm Experiences

Red Hill Lavender Farm is opening its gates in new ways. Join a Scented Farm Experience and explore the plants, distillation and craft behind fragrance before creating your own candle and diffuser to take home. Or wander the property on a guided Garden Tour through the lavender farm, lake walk, Mary Loucas’s flower and kitchen gardens. With tours extending beyond spring into summer and autumn, there are now even more reasons to experience this beautiful Main Ridge property through the seasons.

Talking Hens, Merricks

Some of our earliest memories of food have very little to do with supermarkets. For us, they involve backyards. One of Mum’s friends, Angela Gory — a wonderful French woman and an equally wonderful cook — kept chooks. So did our aunties Marika, Penelope and Areti — all incredible cooks in their own right. What we acknowledged quickly is that cooks, need chooks :) and so do hungry children.

South Beach, Mount Martha

South Beach, Mount Martha sits just above the shoreline, where light, space and the rhythm of the coast set the tone. With uninterrupted views across Port Phillip Bay, open indoor–outdoor seating and a calm, confident pace, it’s dining that protects how it feels to be there.

Gracie’s Lane Luxury Villa Accommodation

Set across 20 acres in Main Ridge, in the heart of the Mornington Peninsula hinterland, Gracie’s Lane Luxury Villa Accommodation offers something increasingly difficult to find: room to slow down. This is not a generic retreat. It is a working horse property, a sheep-breeding farm and a genuine piece of Peninsula countryside, surrounded by open paddocks, mature gum trees and the maritime air that moves through this part of the region.
