To the future uninitiated guest, as you embark on your Great Ocean Road quest, you will wonder if you are going up the right McIntyre Road driveway, as you make a turn off the C134 highway, until you are greeted by a wide and warm smile, and breathe in the country fresh air which I am sure you haven't for a while.

You'll climb up the sturdy horse, oops house, truck, and you'll find that you'll have everything you need, from electric kettle to bar fridge, clean drinking town water to battery-stored solar power, and yes even a pot belly stove indeed. Bear in mind the house has no blinds, but I'm sure the animals will not mind.

If you are wondering where to poop you can use the compost bucket; or if you'd rather, you can stroll 50 metres to a proper flushing toilet.
If you feel adventurous you can hang up the camp shower; or if you are a wuss like me, you can go to the main house to use the warm water. If you feel hungry, you can use the camp stove or BBQ to cook some dinner; or you can walk 10 minutes to Farmer's Place which is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Feel free to wander around the paddocks, but be sure to stay away from the electric fences lest they cause you havoc. On late Wednesday mornings, you can put your green thumb to use in the vegetable garden, and then bring some lunch for a well-deserved shared sustenance. You are just a short drive from the beach, the shops, Anglesea and Torquay; so hop in the car now - there are plenty of things to see!

I am sure you will enjoy your stay; it certainly is something worth more than money can pay. Thanks Maryrose for being such a wonderful host; and I sincerely hope you enjoy reading this amateur post :)
