With access to the estate’s spectacular facilities, including panoramic views, historic gardens, ornamental lakes, tennis court & solar heated pool.

Centrally located only 15 minutes from all the beautiful Bellarine beaches (Point Lonsdale, Ocean Grove & Barwon Heads) and close to all the great wineries and gastro delights of the Bellarine Peninsula.
Guests at The Cottage have access to the resort facilities at Soho, including solar heated swimming pool and tennis court, and can enjoy picnics by the lake, walks through the botanic gardens or just a relaxing glass of local red by the crackling fire.
Plus we also welcome your well behaved furry friends, as well behaved dogs are welcome (but please contact us first for approval).
