This is the second time we have spent a week in our school holiday's at Orchard Lodge in 2021. The first time we ran out of time to leave a wonderful review so will make this one count. Our family have now spent 2 x 2 week holidays at Orchard Lodge (one in Autumn and one in Winter) and we have fallen in love with the accomodation and the town of Birregurra. In terms of the house itself, it is located on a beautiful property with views of the bush from the lounge rooms. The lodge has super high ceilings, a gorgeous cosy fire, 3 bedrooms with very comfortable beds, laundry with dryer, bathroom with high pressured shower, well stocked kitchen, internet TV with the likes of netflix, very good wi-fi connection, BBQ, fire pit and large table outside. Basically everything you would want in a place! The town has a great general store, fancy restaurant Yield (and famous restaurant Brae is not too far away too) and lots of beautiful places to walk. Lorne is also only a 30 min drive so popping over the Otways to the beach is an easy trip and means you can enjoy the coast as well as bush all in the one holiday. Shanti's hospitality is outstanding and she and Roscoe made us feel very welcome and kept our logs constantly restocked! We will certainly be back again very soon. High recommend to people looking to explore the Otways, Birregurra or wishing to have quality time away in the country.
