Beaches
The beaches at Inverloch are family friendly and with playgrounds and eateries near by, it's the perfect place to head to on a warm summers evening. Winter time is also a lovely time to stroll along the beach when its not so busy.
We are 30 minutes away by car and l am always drawn back here time and again.

My favourite beach at Wilson's Prom and has been voted 'best beach' in Australia! And the sand really does squeak! Safe to swim, but don't forget to take insect repellent and sunscreen!

The hip place to be for sure. And a great place to stop on the way to Wilson's Prom. Jem and l have patronized the local restaurants for a long time now. We can highly recommend Moos, Trullis, the Meenyian Store, the Meenyian pub, Bread and Pickles. It also has a wonderful jewelry shop and so much more.

Loch is a wonderful place to stop for lunch on your way to Knockwood estate or on your way back to Melbourne. We love the Loch brewery with its fantastic gin, beer and whiskey. The cafes are all good, and local produce available.

Food Scene
Well apart from knowing these amazing people, we have a connection with them as my brother grows pinot noir grapes for their 'Dirt One' wine. The tasting shed is the place to be on the weekend, especially when live music is playing (Marcus sometimes plays his saxophone 💙) and trulli pizzas serve amazing food. Bookings essential.
