Walk to Beaches
To get to the beach from the house, turn right out of the driveway, pass 4 houses on your right. You will get to a metal gate. Walk around it, and follow the path to the beach through a lovely nature reserve where you will probably spot a wallaby or two.

Food scene
There are so many amazing restaurants to try in Phillip Island, but these are our faves :)
A must visit while you are staying. Great for the family as well. Sit outside on the grass and chill with your favourite wine, or dine in the restaurant. There are sections that are dog friendly. There is also a lovely store of home wares. You will love it.

Great restaurant by the water with views. Food for all tastes and their local beer is made from saltwater! There are tables outside so dogs are probably allowed, though we haven’t tried as yet.
