Set on a typically beautiful Otways acreage only a short walk into Apollo Bay or the beach (at the end of the street), Old Tuxion Cottage has an intrinsic old-world charm yet all the creature comforts and technology we expect these days. (we particularly appreciated the fast wireless).
On an elevated property, the cottage has beautiful uninterrupted sweeping views of the bay. It is good for the soul to sit and enjoy a coffee or wine on the expansive deck or behind the glass with a roaring wood fire. The cottage boasts super comfy beds, a newly renovated swish bathroom and brand new exceptionally well-appointed kitchen.
We loved the long walks along the beach, through the rainforest or into town for a cuppa. For the Twitchers there is an abundance of King Parrots, Cockatoos, Blue Wren, Lorikeet and Kookas.
Apollo Bay is indeed a slice of paradise with its laidback atmosphere, friendly locals and seriously good restaurants.
Ian is a great host and makes the booking process extremely easy with great communication. The only thing we would criticise about our stay at Old Tuxion Cottage is that we had to leave. We will be back!
