Otways Homestead with Private Waterfalls

HOMESTEAD DETAILS
On arrival, as you come through the gate up the treelined driveway, look out for Barry, the resident Koala, and the sheep on the nearby paddock, who curiously greet the visitors. You'll be able to drive up directly to the Homestead and park your car near the entrance, for easy unpacking.

The Homestead features all the essential conveniences and some little luxuries for a comfortable, enjoyable and memorable stay.

There are 3 separate bedrooms - ideal for two couples and up to 6 singles - all beautifully styled and featuring lovely fresh linen, pillows, doonahs, and blankets for your comfort. (If you are staying with a little one, a portacot and pram are also available on request.). We are pet friendly, but if you'd like to bring our four legged friend, please ask about specific terms & charges.

The separate modern bathroom has a toilet, bathtub with shower and vanity, with towels, shampoo, conditioner, body wash and hairdryer provided for your convenience.

Enjoy and relax in the spacious living room, spacious couches or tucked up with a book on the cosy daybed by the log fire. The adjoining kitchen is fully equipped with a full sized fridge, coffee machine, kettle, chef-style cook-top and oven, full set of tableware and all the pots/pans for to cook up a storm for your loved ones. The dining area features a beautiful oakwood dining table for sharing meals or enjoying the boards games provided for your leisure. If you decide to head out for a meal, make your way down to Apollo Bay or Forrest to one of the local eateries (see our recommendations) for a fabulous country fair.

Enjoy the sunshine on the beautiful wooden deck facing the lush garden with mature trees... or settle in for an outdoor lunch under the shelter of the pergola, where you can enjoy the Otways breeze and watch the birdlife that comes to feed at the birdhouse.

There are plenty of boardgames and books, TV iand DVDs provided for your convenience (but we intentionally do not offer wifi as many choose to "disconnect to reconnect" with themselves, each other and the spectacular nature at The Source, Otways). There is plenty of firewood ready for your stay to enjoy fireside talks and connection. There is a heater in every rom for those particularly chilly nights, and air fans for the hotter Otways days.

You will also find a washing machine and dryer in the fully equipped separate laundry, should you need to freshen things up after a day out in the countryside and rainforest.

But if there is anything else you require to make your stay more enjoyable, please feel welcome to ask! We will do our best to accommodate.

GUEST ACCESS
Besides having exclusive use of the Homestead, we invite you to explore the surrounding gardens, visit the sheep that are grazing on one of the paddocks and most of all take an unforgettable stroll through the temperate rainforest that covers over 100 acres of The Source estate.

Visit the Secret Garden and sit around a log fire in the fire pit (available strictly outside fire ban season), listening to the sounds of the forest and sharing stories.

There is just so much here to explore at The Source, Otways!

PLEASE NOTE
The Homestead is nearby the Cottage, so you may see other guests on the property, but the only shared space is the outdoors.
