Countrywide Cottages

Directions Website

Countrywide Cottages Top ten in Australia for seven years running ...we offer four fabulous dog friendly cottages in the beautiful Aussie bushland of Bambra.
(287)

Twenty five minutes drive to Lorne. Just ninety minutes drive from the Westgate Bridge. When did life stop being so gloriously simple? Settle into your four star, dog friendly cottage surrounded by native bush, marvel at the incredible stars, glimpse the native wildlife or just sit back and relax by the fire. Go for a long bush walk into the adjoining Otway Forest Park, snuggle in by the fire and watch the birds on the verandah, try your hand at yabbying or let your dogs go crazy swimming and running in the dam and safely fenced paddock. And of course, there is a lot to take in in the local area with wineries, berry farms, cafes and great restuarants. Just 25 minutes drive south to Lorne and the Great Ocean Road.
