We've just returned from a terrific holiday at Cape Bridgewater, staying at Helen's place on Panoramic Drive. This house is homely, extremely clean and tidy,, with a big deck out the front and views that are a balm to heart and soul (though the highlight for our 16 year old son were the new Jason Recliners!) Helen has provided lots of information about the area, dont be put off reading about its geological significance - it really is fascinating (you are staying on the after-effects of a massive volcano!) Even though we had cool weather there was still heaps to do - make sure you visit Tae Rak at Lake Condah - not only a World Heritage Site but a super café with super good food! And even though we had cool weather we still swam everyday - a great surf beach with big enough waves to really fly on a boogie board while not being so wild you dont want to risk going in! And I've got to say, it was great being away from the beach crowds along the Great Ocean Rd!
