A gorgeous hideaway only minutes to the hidden waterfalls and forests of the Otways. The kids had a ball with the resident cockies and alpacas, and the view over the hills is so peaceful. Very private, only one neighbouring house a good way away, and loads of room to roam on the hills. Lovely to have some snacks on arrival and games to play. Beds very comfy, plenty of blankets provided for the cooler days and huge outdoor table to relax at.
Be aware that the roads to the waterfalls and Apollo Bay are very windy (though Binns Rd is being tarred as we speak). We had fun doing the windy route through Tanybryn but it did require some peppermint lollies to prevent carsickness in the kids - it's not for the fainthearted!
The local pub does good meals and has a well stocked library from which we borrowed whilst there - free as long as the book is returned. The rail trail was also a winner with my son and his new bike - take the path across the road towards Ferguson, gentle uphill slope most of the way which means a wonderful coast back through magical forest then just a short walk pushing the bike (or cycling if you're not 6) up the road home.
Easily doable day trip to see the 12 Apostles and the bay, but was very happy to be staying well away from the endless tour buses that fill the coastal towns and coming back to a peaceful home.
