This two-storey Storybook Cottage is one of three accommodations, located in the rainforest valley of Barham River Road, is a mere eight to ten minutes’ drive from Apollo Bay. Be enchanted by the views of the private lake and grounds and connect with nature in an area of natural beauty known as ‘Paradise’; with its wildlife and pebbled streams, whilst still being able to enjoy all that the Great Ocean Road and its beaches has to offer. This cottage is equipped with everything that you should need to make your stay a magical one. Prepare your meals in the well-equipped kitchen and enjoy them seated in the windowed meals area overlooking rose gardens. Indulge in a glass of wine in front of the fire. Soak your worries away in the large free-standing bathtub before retiring to your bed made comfortable with crisp white linens and a peaceful view through your princess window. Alternatively, you may wish to cook yourself a barbecue and enjoy it sitting on Adirondack chairs overlooking the ornamental lake. A Nespresso machine, smart television, sound bar and WIFI affords you all the comforts of home. You may see ducks, king parrots, echidnas, koalas, wallabies and, if you are lucky, glow worms.

Absolutely beautiful
What a location! So tranquil with frogs and water birds. The cottage was beautiful though not the one listed on the site. Very comfortable bed and a wonderful shower. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Beautiful getaway
I loved this property and the location. It was a nice drive from Apollo Bay. It was quiet and peaceful. The lake with all the ducks was great to watch from the porch.
