Cape Schanck Mornington Peninsula

When fine wines, delicious food and luxury accommodation come together, the results are nothing short of fabulous.

Known for its inimitable dining destinations, swoon-worthy landscape, luxury accommodation and access to great wines, Mornington Peninsula is an obvious choice for winter weekend escapes.

And now, one of its best-loved institutions, Pt. Leo Estate, is inviting guests to enjoy its new series of experiences, including: ‘A Taste of the Pensinula’.

Forget the navigation arguments on this romantic getaway – guests can leave the car behind and enjoy luxury transfers in a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter to the 134-hectare estate. Then, they’ll be treated to dinner at award-winning Laura restaurant and a luxurious stay at the new RACV Cape Schanck Resort.

The dinner is no average meal: this is a five-course menu paired with top-notch wines, showcasing local producers. And culinary director Phil Wood’s menu shows off the best of the peninsula’s cool-climate maritime region.
