March is HUGE in Melbourne. There’s Moomba, two weeks of celebrating Victoria’s delicious food and wine produce, followed by the Grand Prix…. And let’s not forget the start of the AFL Footy season! You’ll be forgiven for not remembering what your home looks like if you were to get involved in all the fun events that are on available.
This weekend, it’s no wonder both of our properties (in South Yarra and Brighton) are 100% fully booked. I might kickstart the weekend with a ‘dazzling breakfast & sparkling wine’ in St Kilda at Veludo on Saturday 20th March. Sounds like fun.
What I’m most excited about is heading to the Cellar Door at Southgate promenade, where over 60 of Victoria’s best wineries are setting up camp practically on our doorstep! While the Yarra Valley and Mornington wineries are spectacular to visit, there’s always the problem of who has to drive. Not this weekend! They’re all coming to us and it’s going to be glorious!
On Sunday there’s also the Bright ‘n’ Sandy Food & Wine Festival where the StayBayside Group [which we are proudly part of] has a stall to promote the Bayside area as a destination with lots of different types of accommodation. Head down to Green Point to find all the local restaurants showcasing their culinary delights amongst a variety of entertainment for all the family. A great afternoon out – You can even bring your dog!
So what’s it going to be for you this weekend? If there’s something not to be missed, please let us know and we’ll tell our guests!
