Mornington is a real community and a great place to live with family. There is always something to do and everything is so accessible from here. Once you move here, you will not want to live anywhere else!

It’s the perfect location being close to the beach as well as only an hours drive from the city but it still has that small town feel about it. The local community is generally good people & it’s only gets busy in summer. Wildlife is beautiful & so are the views from the shoreline. I would of given Mornington 5 stars but in recent years violent youth crime has become a problem so that’s why it gets 4.

Have Lived In Mt Martha for 12 years and have a 15 year old Daughter at Padua. Most people here are Married, Your Child may be best frends with Children for years but you as the Sole Parent are NEVER be invited to any Social Event, no amount of networking cuts the Mustard .
The Lifesaving Club at Mt Martha to enrol into Nippers told me that a Parent had to attend each Sunday to Volunteer in order for my Daughter to participate with her School friends, I worked on Sundays, I could get her there and home but as I could not attend due to work she was not welcome
The area is very safe, iwn my iwn home but the people, all Mortgaged to the hilt are not very nice .

Location, location, location!
- Main Street shops and restaurants are absolutely world-class
- Dava Drive shops
- Beautiful walking trails
- Amazing and super family-friendly beach
