Why we’d go

Every villa has a private heated plunge pool on its deck, the clearest argument for Cassis over any other villa stay in the Red Hill cluster.

Cassis is a converted French farmhouse property and the most structurally distinct option in the Red Hill villa cluster. Where Polperro is intimate studio-scale with open fires and Crittenden is estate-on-a-lake, Cassis gives every villa a private heated mineral plunge pool or outdoor concrete bath on its deck. The views run over the Lancemore Lindenderry vineyard and, past that, Western Port Bay, you are not looking at vines so much as looking past them.

The in-room wine is made with Foxeys Hangout fruit under the Cassis label. Continental breakfast hampers with local artisan produce are included. Lancemore Lindenderry's hatted dining room is walking distance when you need a restaurant rather than your own deck.

Note: the property was listed for sale in early 2026. Confirm current ownership and operating status directly at booking. The villa experience itself remains one of the strongest in the Red Hill accommodation category.

If you only do one thing

Book the Lodge or Retreat villa for the largest pool configuration, confirm ownership status before arrival, and plan to eat at Lindenderry one evening rather than leaving the hilltop.
