Guests from Singapore to Santa Fe, Manila to Melbourne, all rave about Bellevue Farmstay, nestled in a hillside at Scotts Creek, just minutes from the world-famous Great Ocean Road and Twelve Apostles. With majestic views from all rooms, our self-contained farm house on this 350-acre working family farm comfortably sleeps 10 guests.
At the heart of Bellevue are our pets and farm animals, and you'll meet them all personally with one-on-one hand-feeding sessions: Alana (the orphaned camel), Banjo, Victor, Andy, Belle & Sadie (the alpacas), Mopsy, Charlie, Daisy, Nibbles and Chomp (the sheep) and Bruno (the huge beef steer) who weighs a tonne - literally! Simon & Garfunkel (the miniature goats) and Bruce (the large goat) who especially love treats of apples and carrots, as do our horses. Native birds include iridescent parrots, rosellas, cockatoos, galahs, willy wagtails, kookaburras and magpies. Plus, you may also say g’day to native wildlife (koalas, echidnas, kookaburras and kangaroos) on the walking trails. Guests can also visit a rotary dairy farm where 340 cows are milked.
An easy 2 1/2 hour drive (or train ride) from Melbourne, Bellevue Farmstay is just 20 minutes from the breathtaking Great Ocean Road and world-famous Shipwreck Coast featuring the Twelve Apostles and Loch Ard Gorge, Port Campbell National Park, London Bridge and the Bay of Islands at Peterborough. Pick your own delicious strawberries at the nearby Timboon township, famous for the historic Timboon to Camperdown Rail Trail. Explore the amazing volcanic lakes and craters at Camperdown or the magnificent ferns and soaring forests of the Great Otway National Park.
So join gregarious hosts the Couch Family (the fifth generation owners of Bellevue) in exploring Bellevue, enjoying the views, taking a bush walk with some wildlife, mapping out some day trips around our magnificent region or just simply relaxing.
