Bass Vista allows us to escape from the world! We LOVE the location for its quiet solitude and our most favourite thing to do is to sit on the balcony and take in the most magnificent 180 degree views of the waters of Bass Strait and Gunnamatta Beach while sipping on a cocktail. Our children love the garden and its huge trampoline where they can play in the secure fenced garden. They flit in and out of their own lounge downstairs and watch some TV when they want to mix things up. There are so many places to walk and wonder at the native flora and fauna (walk the Bushrangers Bay track in the late afternoon for an encounter with a Kangaroo as they leap from the lower ground to the upper right across your path). From the Cape Schanck lighthouse car park, there is a network of scenic walks and 200 metres east of Cape Schanck is the lookout where Bushrangers Bay Walk commences along the cliff tops of this untouched coastline. Along Main Creek is the Two Bay Walking Track stretching 26km through the countryside of the Mornington Peninsula. For all things food, we head to the village of FLINDERS a short drive away and especially Pier Provedore. Here we grab coffee and provisions for dinner at home. For a special evening, we head to the RACV Cape Schanck Resort where we grab a cocktail in the bar lounge and then eat at either Cape Restaurant or Samphire to complete our luxury escape. PAWfect What fun! a new house to visit that lets four-legged friends like me sleep inside. Yay! a garden with tall fences to keep me safe. Love the trees and bushes, there are lots of interesting smells. Are those possums in the trees? And there's a special basket just for me. No way! What's in there? Ooh, ooh! a treat from PAWDINKUM. I LOVE THIS PLACE. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Internet access ### Parking and transport - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Breakfast available for a fee ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2.5 bathrooms - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Firepit - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location ### Things to do - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/90000000/89960000/89959200/89959105/08b5b5a2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Moonah Retreat - Luxury home with views of Moonah Links Legends Course - 4pm check out on Sundays\* Fingal - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-04&endDate=2025-11-05&selected=89959105&PinnedHotelID=89959105&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, fireplace](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/103000000/102700000/102691700/102691644/0f424ba1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### TJ's Tree House with Ocean Views Cape Schanck - Sea view - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 3 reviews £458 includes taxes & fees 22 Oct - 23 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-22&endDate=2025-10-23&selected=102691644&PinnedHotelID=102691644&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/100000000/99760000/99758500/99758479/b3b84f9a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Bass Ocean Sunsets Cape Schanck Cape Schanck - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 3 reviews £868 includes taxes & fees 22 Oct - 23 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-22&endDate=2025-10-23&selected=99758479&PinnedHotelID=99758479&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/41000000/40600000/40593900/40593893/15dd92a7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Coastal Retreat at Cape Schanck Cape Schanck - Air conditioning - Fireplace - Golf view - Microwave 8.0 Very good 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-04&endDate=2025-11-05&selected=40593893&PinnedHotelID=40593893&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Indoor pool, outdoor pool, pool umbrellas](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/7000000/6580000/6574500/6574440/687f52b2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### RACV Cape Schanck Resort Cape Schanck - Pool - Hot tub - Spa - Kids pool 9.2 Wonderful 941 reviews £108 includes taxes & fees 10 Nov - 11 Nov [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-10&endDate=2025-11-11&selected=6574440&PinnedHotelID=6574440&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/76000000/75190000/75183600/75183555/w1994h1330x3y3-c3967fd1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### BEST location!
