Walk to the Cowes beach - voted "Best Beach for Kids in VIC" (Herald Sun 4/1/08)

Just a few minutes walk leads you to the calm waters of the famous north facing Cowes Beach - perfect for long walks.

Endorsed as Victoria's Best beach for Kids - "The water is usually calm. The beach is wide, there's plenty of shade...and there's not too far to go to reach the main street." (Herald Sun 4/1/08)


Stroll along the beach to the main street of Cowes where you can enjoy coffee or a meal, whilst soaking up the atmosphere of this seaside village.

A short drive away are the Penguin Parade, fabulous wineries and some of Australia's best surf beaches. The Herald Sun nominated the island's Woolami Beach one of "Victoria's Best Surf Beaches."

The island also boasts Victoria's "Best Rocks - at Cape Woolamai Forrest Caves is a series of caverns where sea has eroded the rocks...at low tide the headlands at Smiths Beach have plenty of rock pools to explore."

Phillip Island is a famous perfect summer getaway - yet the Grape Escape offers an equally relaxing spring time experience - sunny days and crisp nights by the fire with a family game, good book or good friend!

  • "We absolutely loved The Grape Escape ! I stayed there with my mum and two young children and it was very enjoyable. The secure backyard was great for the kids to have a run around and the selection of movies kept them entertained at night. The location was perfect and the addition of little extras (bottle of wine, dvd's, games and lots more) made it a very memorable short break. I will definitely be back ! Thanks Anna."

  • "Loved the house and its proximity to beach and town (a lovely walk in via beach). Very comfortable beds. We went in Winter and had choice of reverse cycle heating or Coonara wood heater. Our teenage boys loved the ipod docking station and great sized secure backyard perfect for pets or small children. Owners have thoughtfully provided a very comprehensive Information guide to the area.Will certainly return when we get the opportunity. "
