This was the perfect stay for our trip to Phillip Island. Our hosts were great, the paddock was spacious and still secluded from the other sites, and we found the proximity to the winery very convenient.

Wonderful hosts, beautiful views, and all alone due to the size of the paddocks.
2 minute drive to a wonderful surf beach that's super quite (end of the road past the winery).
Will absolutely return!
