Blairgowrie is a small little town. It is really great all the recreational activities around and the restaurants and shopping is great. With sorrento next to you there is always something to do. Whether it be enar the water or on land. With about 12 golf courses within a half hour drive. That is very convenient wouldn't you say,
I would highly reccomend living here.
To find out more about the great things you can do in Sorrento read my other review on Gulls Way, Sorrento.

Sorrento, located between the suburbs Portsea and Blairgowrie. Is a quiet town though is full of activities and lots of fun stuff to do and keep you occupied. The sorrento shops have ehaps of retail and restaurants. And if their are no restaurants that you like in Sorrento Main Street (This Is Unlikely) you can always go to Blaigowrie which is a quite smaller shopping strip with only a dozen shops but about 8 restaurants and take away places.
Their is always something to do in Sorrento wether it be shopping, entertaining, on the water, golf or other activities. The golf is excellent with about 12 clubs located within a half hours drive.
The water is lovely where you can sit on the beach, go sailing or take in the views by going on the ferry to Queenscliffe. The cafes are great with loads and loads of them around either up by the back beach or located right on the front beach such as The Baths which is actually built in the sand with a pier attached next to it.
I would higly reccomend living or staying here over summer. Don't be put off by thinking it will be quiet and ugly over winter because it is really quiet and their are still heaps of different activities you can do,

Parks everywhere and lots of lovely little cafes hidden everywhere, Great public transportation and facilities. The shopping and restaurants isn't great but when you're so close to federation Square you just go there for dinner or into those back lane ways in Richmond where they're are cosy little quiet restaurants.
