Easy and dreamy sanctuary with a relaxed coastal vibe
Nestled snuggly under the green-covered cloak of Arthurs Seat, where the hinterland meets the sea, Jameson’s Landing is a place for all seasons. In the heart of Peninsula’s food culture, this private sanctuary is easy and dreamy with a relaxed coastal vibe.
Beginning with our First Nation people there remains a strong connection to land and sea. Dilly bags once filled with the authentic deliciousness of seasonal abundance has paved the way for a foodie infused escape. The cycle of life here has remained gentle and unhurried. Family and loved ones continue to gather share their bounty sprung from the earth of Bunurong Country.
In summer, the sky is filled with the hum of families having fun as they bathe in the sparkling water in shades of green and blue. As yachts sail gently into the bay, the days drifts slowly into long lunches over vino, sunsets over rambling vineyards and long endless days where time stands still.
As the first autumn chill floats through the air, the fishermen are busy hauling their catch while plump grapes and crunchy apples are harvested in the hinterland. It’s time for mushroom foraging and long autumn walks.
Winter can be wild with the bay’s ‘white horses’ crashing on the shore like hundreds of hooves thundering along the ground. Wander along a track, or brace yourself on the beach then as the wind squalls, hunker down, cocooned with family and loved ones to indulge in delicious cold weather decadence, a robust red or locally distilled gin or whisky by the fireside.
As the last of the dark clouds roll away and the spring buds billow and rupture, explore pristine beaches, fish for flattie and roam the labyrinth of walking tracks and coastal paths that connect coast to coast.
Indulge in endless plenteousness all year round. There’s nowhere to be. Except here.

Property was beautiful and relaxing. Hosts were very welcoming. We really enjoyed our stay and could see how much effort and love was put into the design and decor. Thanks so much!
Incredibly welcoming and helpful host. They sent us a nice text message inviting us to check in early. Provided a thoughtful Gin tasting and blending experience that went above and beyond what was expected.Beautifully furnished home with hosts that seem to care about their guests and are interested in making this stay as nice as possible.Arguably the best VRBO experience I have enjoyed so far.
House was clean and very peaceful play to stay with the family. Whole family enjoyed the stay. Property manager is very helpful and organised with everything.

Great communication and or hosts had thought of so many small details they may have been useful for our stay. The house itself is lovely and comfortable. Loved the beds!
This house was amazing. Clean, spacious and the attention to detail was fantastic! Everything was supplied right down to a beautiful linen spray! Fantastic location! Definitely 10 out of 10. My family and I will definitely be back!
Our stay was absolutely perfect! The space was spotless, beautifully designed, and thoughtfully stocked with every little detail you could possibly need. From the high-quality furnishings to the small touches that made us feel right at home, it’s clear that the hosts have put so much care into creating an exceptional experience. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a truly special place!
We had a lovely time here. The place was exactly as described, beautiful rooms, comfy beds and well decked out kitchen. Loved the coffee machine. Definitely 5 star accommodations highly recommend. We'll be back 😁

Dear Maggie, we're thrilled you enjoyed your stay and the accommodations, particularly the coffee machine! We look forward to your return visit.
We stayed here while we were attending our friends wedding, the host was very accommodating allowing us to check in early so that we could get ready there before going to the wedding. The bottle of wine was also a very nice touch. The home is beautiful, very clean and had a very comfy bed.

Dear Caitlin, we're thrilled to hear about your enjoyable experiences with us and our warm hospitality. We eagerly await your next visit. Thanks for your wonderful recommendation!
My friends and I had a girl's weekend at Gathering Shores. We absolutely love the place- everything is considered and the attention to detail was greatly appreciated! Also love the acknowledgement of the First Nations history in the area, something that is not seen enough. We will definitely be back!
Immaculate home and one you want to steal all the interior ideas from. There was even a pillow menu! The kids loved the outdoor shower and the massive Smart TV! I loved the soft linen sheets and comfy beds. The close by eateries on the beach were excellent.

The property is absolutely beautiful, warm, and welcoming, with every detail thoughtfully designed with love. We were impressed by the charming decorations throughout the house. The beds and pillows were incredibly comfortable, and the pillow menu and flowers on the bed were delightful surprises—such a thoughtful touch! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and appreciated the excellent communication with the owner. It was a perfect experience from start to finish.
The property was exceptional with everything you could need, even a pillow menu! All amenities, basic supplies and champagne on arrival. The outdoor bath was a surprise luxury and Patricia’s linen spray and bath salts exceptional. Plus 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, plenty of parking, ensures everyone is comfortable. We will stay again!
We stayed for a weekend getaway and wedding. What a gorgeous home, just like the pictures in the listing, with so many thoughtful inclusions, you can really tell the owners love to host.
There was a heatwave that weekend so we thoroughly enjoyed the beach just a few minutes drive away. Plenty of cafes, eateries and a gourmet filled iga in town. Short drive to wineries, distilleries and plenty to do.

Lovely open plan kitchen , dining and living area with side decking capturing the morning sun- a beautiful spot for breakfast on a lovely wooden table , with bench seat clad with comfy cushions . Very quiet and peaceful. Host very welcoming and available by phone if in need .

Dear Angela, thank you so much for your beautiful review! We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay at Gathering Shores.
We are so lucky to find Gathering Shore. It is such a lovely home full of characters. Love and care of the host are seen through the house from all the details. The house is super clean with comfortable beds and linens. General sized bedrooms with good sound blocking design. North/south facing makes this place cool in summer time, perfect for hot weathers. Open plan kitchen and living connected to an outdoor barbecue area where our babies love blowing bubbles there. We can see the moon hanging up bright directly from the bench. On a hot summer day sitting there watching our babies chasing bubbles is so joyful and relaxing. Super caring host with great communication. The only shame is that we were a bit rushed being young families with babies. Although our babies absolutely love this place, it would be enjoyable, quiet and private if the trip was for a coupe or two. Hope I’ll be able to return soon with more quiet time for myself so that I can go through all the notes, guides and books that characterise this place as unique. I highly recommend this place to all families and those adults wanting to enjoy their own quiet time.
This house is amazing. The decor and landscape was so beautiful.
Host was so friendly.
Quiet area and close to lots of eateries and things to do.
