Loved my stay in this sweet cottage in Forrest. Handy location on the edge of the Great Otway National Park and only a half-hour drive from Colac, or 40 mins to Apollo Bay. There's a fabulous coffee shop/general store across the road and the Brewery next door but be mindful that the store closes early (4pm weekdays and 3pm on weekends) and the Brewery is not open every day, so don't arrive in Forrest (like we did) at dusk, with little or no food (the Forrest pub was also closed/not operating). The cottage is bright, welcoming and quiet, with a lovely private garden and the sounds of the rainforest to lull you to sleep or whet your appetite to explore more during the day. Am definitely keen to revisit the Brewers Cottage, as it was exactly what I was after; had all the amenities I needed, and was a good launch pad for rainforest walks, sightseeing, and visiting the Great Ocean Road/beachside towns and villages. I travelled with a friend from NZ, who was delighted to see this stunning region of Victoria and spend some time in Forrest. We stayed for two nights but I could easily stay longer next time. Highly recommended!
