My partner and I loved our stay at The Church in Barongarook. It was clean with a cheerful ambiance, had a well supplied kitchen, a fire already set up for us to light in the evening and a great selection of hot drinks and breakfast items. We took our bikes because we wanted to ride some of the Old Beechy Rail Trail which pretty much runs past the property. We drove our bikes to Gellibrand and cycled from there up to Barongarook and back as we wanted to start with an uphill ride and end with an exciting rip down the hills. So much fun! We are amateur cyclists so it took us about 2 hours to cycle up and an hour down with stops for snacks along the way. About a 28 km round trip. It was nice to come back to a cozy comfy house, light a fire and chill in the big bed next to the lounge watching movies. Watching the various birds in the mornings play around the trees and the bird feeders was also a highlight. We highly recommend staying here. Thanks Kellie! xo
