One of Victoria&rsquo;s best-kept secrets is without doubt the Mornington Peninsula, jutting down below Melbourne and boasting spectacular views out over the ocean. The only thing that can top the scenery is the chance to sample the locally-produced wine, cheese, cider, chocolate and strawberries.

&lsquo;&rsquo;Best known for its beautiful beaches and national parks, Mornington Peninsula is also home to a fantastic line up of eateries and local producers&rsquo;&rsquo; &mdash;<a href="http://www.melbournegirl.com.au/2016/06/16/mornington-peninsula/">The Melbourne Girl</a>
