Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Side view of Portsea Hotel, Mornington Peninsula
This hotel is huge with many dining areas.
Old and new window styles blend to create a charming mix of worlds.
On the terrace you can enjoy sweeping views of Port Phillip Bay.

Someday I will get to Australia. My love used to live there and would like to return for a visit. Maybe then I will get to see some of this wonderful and charming places in person. Until that time, I shall rely on you to be my guide.
This hotel looks like a good place for a quiet vacation of simply lazing around. Looking good in sepia :)
