Architecturally designed house set in the heart of the Mornington Peninsula

Main Ridge Barn was designed and built in 2019 with a specific purpose of being a relaxed and comfortable entertainer! The house itself has been architecturally designed to ensure you feel part and parcel of the wonderful surrounds. With a large north facing deck there is nothing better than sitting with a glass of wine, looking across the strawberry fields waiting for the local kangaroos to bound past. In winter, fire up the log burner and enjoy the views through a 12m wall of windows.

In 2023, Main Ridge Barn was awarded 'Best Rural Accommodation - Mornington Peninsula' for the second year in a row by LUXlife magazine in their 2023 Resorts & Retreats Awards.

The property is only 250m from Rocky Creek Strawberry Farm and 350m from T'Gallant Winery and a 20 minute stroll to Green Olive and Ten Minutes by Tractor.

About the house...

The house has an impressive living area with vaulted ceilings and a large, north facing deck connected to a child friendly garden.

The house is also secure for small dogs and we welcome your fully house-trained fur-babies. A $10 per night, per dog levy applies for a max of two dogs and all requests will be considered upon application. Please enquire before booking.

The state of the art, modern kitchen is an entertainers dream, equipped with with a large induction hob, two ovens, dishwasher, large fridge freezer and fully stocked kitchen pantry with gadgets galore!

House configuration upstairs - Bedroom 1 (King Bed & balcony), Bedroom 2 (2 x King Single Beds), Bathroom (shower & bath) and large rumpus living area on mezzanine (inc 55" TV).

House configuration downstairs - Bedroom 3 (Queen Bed), Bedroom 4 (2 x Single bunk beds - sleeps 4), Laundry (separate washer & dryer), modern kitchen, dining area (3m table, seats 10), lounge with 65" Smart TV and log burner.

The house is set up to make your break as relaxed as possible. Hopefully you wont need to bring a thing. For families with young children the house is setup with a travel cot, high chair, blenders, plenty of toys for the kids and a coffee machine and board games for the adults!

We look after our 'fur-guests' as well with feeding bowls, a luxurious corduroy bed, toys, spare poo bags, wipes and possibly even a snack or two!

The house has a state of the art ducted heating and cooling system.

We welcome guests that are happy to abide by the Mornington Peninsula Code of Conduct for guests staying at Holiday Houses on the Mornington Peninsula.

Beautiful house in beautiful surroundings
My family and I had a lovely weekend in this beautiful property - the welcome basket was a lovely touch and the house was well stocked especially the pantry. It is within walking distance of some lively wineries including Ten Minutes by Tractor. Recommended.

Lovely getaway at Main Ridge
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location is great with a lovely vista overlooking the strawberry fields. The house is quiet, clean and well stocked with cooking utensils and pantry staples. The welcome hamper was a nice touch. The wifi worked seamlessly and we were able to stream movies. Electric blankets were supplied and the floor heating in the bathrooms, fireplace and room heating kept us comfortable and cosy. Brenda was very easy to communicate with and allowed us to check in a little earlier.
