A gem of a place in Johanna

Pros: Everything. Location. Quiet. Felt off the beaten track. Very Australian. Lovely owners. Great value.
Cons: NA
Location: Johanna Beach was just a few minutes drive away.
Absolutely brilliant stay in Johanna, especially while on a Great Ocean Rd road trip. Perfect location, great accommodation, nice views, and close to the lovely Johanna Beach. The cottage was spacious, welcoming, clean, tidy and had all the self-contained kitchen amenities you'd ever need to cook up a feast. We particularly enjoyed the spa and the crackling fireplace - a great combination in winter! Ros & Mark were amazing, friendly and so kind to mail us back two items that we had accidentally left behind. Thanks so much, can't wait to come back again.

Cottages in a quiet, rural setting.

Pros: A quiet and private setting that feels welcoming as soon as you walk through the door.
Cons: There is nothing that could be faulted.
Location: The location is very quiet but Laver's Hill offers some groceries, a hotel and a couple of cafes. The Otway National Park is close by.
Lovely cottages offering privacy in a beautiful setting. It was very cold while we were there but we had a great stock of firewood on hand as well as air conditioning. We had a bottle of bubbly waiting for us in the fridge.
