Why we’d go

The Peninsula's most panoramic B&B position, sitting on the ridge that divides bay from hinterland, halfway between everything.

Five suites on the Arthurs Seat ridge with panoramic Port Phillip Bay views, double spas, and electric log fires. AAA 4.5-star rated, adults-only and child-free throughout. Hosts Helen and Greg run the property with the attentiveness of a small owner-operated stay rather than a managed accommodation business, and it shows in the reviews.

The Arthurs Seat position is genuinely practical as well as scenic. Sitting at the geographic mid-point of the Peninsula, you are equidistant from the bayside towns to the north and the ocean-coast villages to the south, which makes day trips in either direction easy. Rates rise in peak season; book direct for current pricing.

Book a north-facing suite for the full bay view rather than the garden-facing rooms. Confirm minimum stay requirements and ask about current condition directly, a January 2025 review noted minor maintenance concerns that may or may not have been addressed.
