I had a lovely stay at the Garden Retreat Cottage. Petrina and Phil were wonderful hosts and made sure everything ran smoothly, and the place itself was cozy and peaceful, but only 15-20mins drive from Apollo bay. The surrounding scenery is beautiful as well with the Barwon River just nearby.

Our Winter stay was perfect. The secluded Cottage is a charming, cozy place perched up high in the Otway Ranges. Every detail was well thought out. Petrina's communication was excellent and we had everything we needed for a relaxing stay from start to finish. We hope to visit again!

Such a hidden gem! From the moment I arrived, it was clear this cottage had been created with guest experience in mind. Every detail felt thoughtful and intentional. I absolutely loved it and could of... easily stayed for a month! The space was warm, cosy and beautifully equipped with some welcome wine! I especially loved the sunroom and spent hours there with a chai tea, reading and soaking up the misty mountain views and birdsong. Peaceful, quiet and deeply restorative. I left feeling calm, content and already dreaming of returning.
