Fantastic Family Farm/Beach Stay!! My husband, our 3 year old and I had a great week staying at the Vines in Mt Martha. Great location on the Mornington Peninsula with a variety of family activities- our son loved helping Peter feed hay to the horse, cows, and sheep, patting the dog and collecting eggs. Plenty of space to ride his bike, fly a kite and go on walks. A great playground nearby and a short drive to the shops. We had a few rainy days and made the most of a couple of great indoor play centres less than 10 mins away. The boat shed is fantastic- so good to have a base where your family can eat some lunch, get changed or have some quiet time in the shade. And so good to be able to leave all the beach toys there and not have to carry them down every day. The beach is a great family beach and perfect for young ones with shallow sand banks and rock pools to explore. The boat hire next door is a bonus - we hired a sea sled for an hour and our son loved it!
The accomodation is comfortable and very well- equipped. It’s not luxurious by any means but it has everything you need and is better equipped than most air bnbs that I have stayed in. It has more than the standard pantry and bathroom items and the croissants and breakfast staples were much appreciated on our first day.
Peter is a warm and generous host with plenty of suggestions and good advice. Can thoroughly recommend for young families with kids 3+ years old.
