The Sands Torquay

Photos from thesandstorquay.com

The Sands Torquay is a resort with an 18-hole links golf course, set among sand dunes on Victoria's Surf Coast and a five-minute walk from Whites Beach. Couples can marry on the golf lawn or in the Spike room or on its terrace, hold the reception at the resort, and have guests stay overnight in its rooms and suites.

Links golf, dunes and a beach five minutes' walk away, with rooms on site so nobody has to drive home. A good middle ground for couples who want the coast but need space for up to 200.
