Red Hill Boat - Luxury Wartime Boat On Land

A rescue boat in WW2, then a courtesy boat for the late Queen Elizabeth II, now a unique B&B in private grounds in the heart of the wine and fine-dining district of the Mornington Peninsula.

Red Hill Boat features a number of character-filled small rooms with restored original fittings and modern amenities. She offers surprises in every area, including a sunken shower, simulated controls in the wheelhouse, 1940’s radio, papers and magazines; while offering the latest in smart TV, quality hi-fi, free wi-fi, and sumptuous luxury in heated/air-conditioned comfort.

A delicious local-produce based breakfast hamper is provided, with other assorted goodies to sip and nibble on.

Red Hill Boat rests in her own private area, well removed from the main house and farm. There’s an outdoor bath, barbecue area and outdoor furnace.

Parking is free and easy, via a private driveway off the main entrance. Access is by coded security gates and self-access via key safe.

Walking distance or by short drive, nearby amenities include restaurants, wineries and brewery, with Red Hill central to both bay and ocean beaches.

Please note: Red Hill Boat is, well … a boat. Although surprisingly spacious, it has small doorways, low ceilings, steps up and down and narrow walkways, making it unsuitable for the very old, the very young, the very large or the very infirm.
There is a kitchenette inside the boat with microwave, pod coffee machine, toaster, bar fridge and kettle. Cooking is outside on Webber bbq with pizza stone and separate gas ring.
Accommodation is for two people only.
RED HILL BOAT IS NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN OF ANY AGE, AT ANY TIME.
Pets are strictly prohibited.
There is no smoking or vaping in or on any part of the boat or pier.

* Please note - As a matter of safety the fire furnace is not available for use during the Mornington Peninsula summer fire restrictions season.

There is no other B&B in the world like the Red Hill Boat.
