Tussie Mussie

Tussie Mussie Vineyard & Retreat is a private, boutique accommodation estate in Merricks North on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula, less than an hour from Melbourne. Set among a 27-acre vineyard property, it offers a relaxed, Provence-inspired setting for romantic escapes, family gatherings, alfresco dining and small private celebrations. Guests can book three self-catering residences separately or together: the Vineyard Lodge, with four king bedrooms and private bathrooms; the Owners Cottage, with two bedrooms; and the secluded Old Laundry suite for two. Combined, the residences provide eight bedrooms and six bathrooms.

The grounds include a full-size, all-weather tennis court, a kitchen garden, an outdoor fire pit, a wood-fired pizza oven and a long table overlooking the vines. The estate’s three-hectare vineyard grows Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris and is farmed by Quealy Winemakers using organic principles. During a stay, guests can arrange additional services such as a private chef, pizza chefs, massage therapists or chauffeur services. The retreat brings accommodation, vineyard surroundings and opportunities to gather together in one distinctive destination.
