portsea hotel, portsea — mamma knows south

The Portsea Hotel has been sitting proud on her perch, overlooking the bay at the end of the peninsula since 1876. This Mamma, for one, has made many memories visiting this place over the years. Gatherings here in this breathtaking destination are hard to forget. She has recently had a make over for some freshening up and Mamma must say, she is more beautiful than ever. Fresh and clean and bright, but still with a bayside feel. Book and dine inside (the glass doors open up for those sunny days) or try your luck in the beer garden and just turn up to get the more casual seating outdoors. The food is delicious of course, with plenty of choice. Is it kid friendly? The grassy area was FULL of kids having fun, climbing trees, playing leap frog and even some kick to kick! The family feel here was wonderful, and Mamma loved seeing all the happy faces creating all those new memories of their own.

Mamma's special mention: Head down the track and take a walk along the pier, or have a play at the small playground at the beach entrance.
