If you are looking to spend some relaxing time on the Great Ocean Road with your family this is a great choice. We had family visiting from the UK and they loved the amount of wildlife we were able to see - including koalas and so many birds which regularly came to visit our balcony.
The views from the house are wonderful and the neighbourhood is quiet, but you still have easy access to Lorne 30 mins away which is more lively if you wish. The beach is 5 minutes walk and was again a good choice for families as the sea was much calmer here.
I asked for lots of information on restaurants and places to go and the hosts Carmel and Ben were always very helpful!
