Red Hill Cheese is one of the Peninsula's quietest food landmarks. The tasting room is small and the range is deliberately tight: hard sheep's milk styles, a washed rind or two, a rotating seasonal list of whatever the cheesemaker is currently excited about. The pours are generous enough to understand what is happening on the plate, and the team is happy to talk through milk sourcing, ageing, and why a Peninsula block grows cheese the way it does. Buy a wedge on the way out and pair it with bread from a currently operating village shop and a bottle from one of the estates down the road. The Red Hill Baker's former Red Hill shop is closed; its sole current location is in Balnarring. Not a destination in its own right, but an essential stop on any serious Peninsula food weekend.
