My favourite (non-wine) horse-riding tour is with Gunnamatta Trail Rides. The horses are extremely well kept and maintained, very gentle and the scenery along the beach is breathtaking – as is the canter along the beach if you are competent enough. One of my other favourite things to do is make sure you get to the Peninsula Hot Springs after so that you are not sore for a week! Gunnamatta have special deals going for this.

With Moonraker you have an incredible 3-hour snorkel adventure with local Bottlenose Dolphins, you swim alongside cheeky Australian Fur Seals (which are like dogs!) and you get to explore underwater marine parks filled with colourful fish. Or if getting in the water up close and personal is not your thing, you can embark on a private luxury adventure aboard the Moonraker, where you can see the very best of Port Phillip Bay and wild dolphins swimming alongside, just meters away from the Australian Fur Seals. If you love dolphins, like I do, then I can’t recommend this adventure enough.

After completion of works in one summer, Eagle Ridge has reopened with substantially reduced water needs, adding to its green credentials.

This walk is very close to the villa, and has beautiful boardwalk and walking tracks which run through bushland along the south bank, from the estuary to the Nepean Highway, with two bridges to the north bank creating a circuit. At the highway, the track connects with walking tracks in The Briars Park. I love running on this boardwalk track – because it’s so kind on the joints and knees. Start/Finish: Starts and finishes at the Balcombe Creek Car Park on the Esplanade. Distance: 2.5 kmTime to Complete: 1-2 hours
