About the location

Seddon:

This is classic Melbourne - cool inner city vibe and only 1 minute walk to an old school shopping strip with pubs, bars, cafes restaurants, grocers, pharmacy etc. Within 20 minutes walk you can reach Footscray (Vietnamese culture), Yarraville (iconic village featuring the art deco Sun Theatre) or the Maribyrnong river (boating, river walks etc)

Lots of transport options, only 8-10 minute walk to 3 different train stations. Its only 4 stops to the Melbourne CBD Bus across the road takes you to a large mall, airport 25-30 minutes on the freeway.

Melbourne:

The city can be reached in 15 mins once on the train, or similar in a car. As the cultural capital of Australia you'll find a myriad of museums, parks, art galleries, cafes, bars and restaurants, as well as a thriving theatre district. New and old sit side by side as you can wander past sky-scrapers of glass and steel one minute, yet gold-rush era architecture the next, remnants of a time 150 years ago when Melbourne was the richest city in the world. Don't miss:

- Melbourne Laneways (explore a warren of alleys with cafes and bars)
- Tennis centre (Australian Open in January, plus year-round concerts)
- Melbourne Cricket Ground (AFL, Ashes cricket, soccer, rugby, concerts)
- Docklands (AFL, soccer and concerts)

Day trips:

- Great Ocean Road is 1 hour 20 mins by car
- Wilsons Prom is 3 hours
- 3 Wine regions as an enjoyable day - Mornington Peninsula, Bellarine Peninsula and Yarra Valley.
- Phillip Island (Nature, beaches and Penguins at dusk)
- Ballarat (Gold rush museum at Sovereign Hill)
- Daylesford

If staying longer:

- The Great Ocean Road stretches for hundreds of kilometres along the south coast, one of the most breath-taking drives in the world
- In winter the ski fields are 3-4 hours drive
- Many other destinations can be reached via short trips - Canberra, the Murray River and all of its historic towns, the Grampians and so much more. You can even reach Sydney or Adelaide in a full day's driving, or one hour flight each.

Happy to negotiate use of car.
