'Arguably the island's best accommodation.' – Melbourne Age Newspaper

Finest heritage surroundings, country-house ambience, beachside location, extensive secluded formal gardens, chef-prepared cuisine & fine wine.

An award winning small luxury hotel-style retreat...

Nestled in the secluded gardens and 100 year-old oak trees of the historic Glen Isla Homestead (circa 1870), award winning Glen Isla House provides a tranquil retreat for discerning guests.

Situated just 100 metres from a pristine sandy beach and a short walk to the seaside village of Cowes with shops and restaurants; Glen Isla House offers absolute privacy, genuine old-world charm and refined elegance, with warm hospitality . Secure off-street parking in the grounds and wireless internet access provided free.

Hosts Madeleine and Ian Baker created Glen Isla House as a small luxury hotel-style retreat in the European style to offer 5 Star accommodations quite unique on Phillip Island. Accommodations offered include a separate four-poster romantic suite-cottage, elegant purpose-architected en-suited guest rooms with garden vistas and a luxury self-cater cottage.

Glen Isla is close driving distance to the Phillip Island Nature Park (little penguins and koalas). Nearby also the Phillip Island Winery, pristine surf and swimming beaches and the motorcycle Grand Prix Circuit.

Fine Food & Wine
Glen Isla House offers a chef-prepared gourmet breakfast served to you in the restaurant dining room or terrace in the gardens (included in the daily tariff). Our resident chefs prepare evening Table D’Hôte dinner in our professional restaurant kitchen (available to resident guests only by prior arrangement) using fresh regional and organic ingredients.
