Nestled on the lush surrounds of Red Hill in the Mornington Peninsula, The Cambium is an exclusive-use venue for businesses looking to enact change, away from the distractions of the workplace.

Made up of accommodation, premium business facilities and a dining room with exquisite garden views, it’s designed to nurture purposeful collaboration, creative thinking and in-depth strategy in the great outdoors. It’s a place to retreat from the everyday and to renew connection with your professional vision. It’s a blank canvas for innovation, thoughtfully tailored to the unique intention of your visit.

At the Cambium you will be living both indoors and out so planning your packing ahead will ensure you are comfortable wherever you are.

Weather conditions in Red Hill can range from perfectly still to the perfect storm. The sanctuary of the fireplace or electric blanket is never far away, but warm layers, a cosy jacket and sturdy footwear will be your best friends when exploring the property.

The Cambium is great to visit all year round! Summer at Red Hill is warm and makes for a beautiful time to visit. Utilising the various outdoor spaces during summer is a great way to enjoy your stay, with plenty of natural shade, outdoor umbrellas and air conditioning in your rooms to keep you cool.

Autumn and Spring, the transitional months, are gorgeous times to visit with the natural beauty of the changing trees and blooming flowers. The climate is more moderate with cooler mornings and evenings and warm during the day, making it ideal to enjoy your time both inside and outside. It’s also the perfect time to get out and about around Red Hill.

Winter is the best time to rug up and enjoy the fire pit outside under the stars. Winter can get very cold and wet; however, we ensure that you are warm during your stay with electric blankets, premium heating and many open fireplaces. Winter is an amazing time for peace and clarity at The Cambium.

We have many wild animals visiting the property, so we are unable to cater for pets.

All buildings can also be accessed directly by emergency vehicles if required.

The Cambium is open from Monday - Saturday.

Pending availability we may be able to cater for bookings outside these times for special events.

The first building is The Stables and houses the business spaces (The Boardroom, Manna Hall (multipurpose room) & The Loft (business lounge) and some accommodation. The building is a converted stable, hence the namesake.
