A wonderful getaway
This place was perfect to say the least. As soon as we walked in the door my partner and I knew we would stay here again. It was a lovely, quiet cottage that gave us the peace and connection back to nature that we needed.

Fabulous rural retreat on coast in Otway Park
Comfortable house surrounded by forest with opportunities to see Koala and Kangaroo, lots of birdlife in surroundings. Secluded. Friendly hosts. Access to fresh eggs and herb garden. Easy to explore surrounding coast from this base.
