Top of the Otways the Country Cottage

Escape to one of our two pet-friendly cottages in the heart of the Otways. Surrounded by National Park, the Country Cottage offers a unique farm-stay experience with friendly animals to hand-feed, forest views and a cosy wood fire. Modern comforts include a barista-style coffee machine and fast Starlink internet. Explore nearby waterfalls, spot platypus at Lake Elizabeth, discover Forrest and its famous mountain bike trails or enjoy the beaches of Apollo Bay and the Great Ocean Road.

The Country Cottage is a cosy and comfortable cabin designed for families, couples and their four-legged companions. Nestled amongst native forest and tree ferns, surrounded by the beauty of the Great Otway National Park, the cottage offers a peaceful escape where birdsong, wildlife and fresh mountain air are abundant.

The cottage features a master bedroom and a second bedroom with a queen bed and single bunk, making it ideal for families or small groups. Sink into premium bedding after a day of exploring the Otways, with the master bedroom offering a king-size doona and electric blanket for extra comfort during the cooler months.

The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals during your stay, including a gas oven, full-sized fridge and freezer, microwave and barista-style coffee machine. If you don’t wish to switch off from the world, The Cottage has Starlink internet allowing you to stay connected while enjoying the tranquillity of nature.

The open-plan living area includes a cosy wood fire, dining space, TV, Wii and a games library with board games, puzzles and books for all ages.

Step outside onto the covered balcony and enjoy a BBQ while taking in views across the farm and surrounding forest.

Pets are warmly welcomed both inside and outside the cottage. The cottage has its own private, fully fenced yard, providing a secure space for children and dogs to play and relax.

During your stay, you’re welcome to explore much of our 32-acre farm, including the walking trails that lead down to the creek in the valley below. You’re also welcome to meet and hand-feed our friendly farm animals, including sheep, goats and chickens.

The property is home to two separate guest accommodations, The Country Cottage and The Nature Lodge (https://www.vrbo.com/en-au/holiday-rental/p9568290?dateless=true), which are located a comfortable distance apart to provide privacy for all guests. Each accommodation has its own dedicated outdoor areas and parking.

A communal guest laundry is available on request. Please contact us during your stay and we’ll happily show you where it is and how everything works.

As this is a working farm and our family home, some sheds, paddocks and operational areas are reserved for private use. We simply ask guests to respect any signed areas and enjoy the rest of the property responsibly.

We acknowledge the Gadubanud People as the Traditional Owners and custodians of the land on which we live and gather. We pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging.
