How to cook fresh mussels

You can almost see the local mussel farms from our balconies.
Portarlington mussels are world class and we want to show you where to eat them, how to cook them and bust a myth while we’re at it.

Sailing into Portarlington

There are not many places where you can sail to a beautiful region full of wineries and wonderful places to explore.
The sights, the fresh air and the anticipation are all part of the journey.

A Bellarine Picnic basket

Picnics are timeless, they’re acceptable for any meal and all ages. Take your time, slow down, taste, sip and enjoy the Bellarine and it’s bounty.
There’s plenty to share with everyone

A Grand Gift

Give someone an experience they’ll never forget. Great local food, drink, and hospitality OR a promise to stay in our boutique accommodation.

Because everyone deserves something to look forward to.

So here we go..
This weekend of accommodation is fully booked, but if you want to be some of the first to experience our newly renovated rooms, we do have availability during the week and a couple of rooms left on the last 2 weekends of August.

We are pinching ourselves that we are finally open and it’s already been a week of welcoming the most lovely people through the doors.
Thanks for the love so far 🙏
