Charm and beauty near Mornington Peninsula holiday homes to rent
Situated about an hour's drive to the southeast of Melbourne and nestled between Port Phillip Bay and Western Port Bay, Mornington Peninsula is an idyllic mix of small-town charm and rugged, natural beauty. Thanks to its easy, breezy access to Australia's second largest city, some of the areas and neighbourhoods dotting its western shorelines are regarded as outlying suburbs of greater Melbourne. This makes for the perfect escape from the city's comparatively hectic landscape, and Mornington Peninsula vacation rentals offer the ultimate feeling of the laid-back, local life that Oz is known for.
