About this property
RIVER COTTAGE: WINCHELSEA, SURFCOAST VICTORIA
A Quaint 2 Bedroom Cedar Miners Cottage set on a large organic garden block, pet friendly and equipped with all your needs. The property is only 30min drive to many of the Surfcoast regions most popular beaches and tourist destinations. Winchelsea is located half way between Geelong and Colac, enroute to Lorne (30 min)(via Deans Marsh), and the 12 Apostles and Port Campbell (1.5hr Drive). Other popular tourist destinations close by are Torquay and Bells Beach (30min), Anglesea (30min), Aireys Inlet (35-40min), Bambra (15 min), Birregurra (20min), The Bellarine Peninsular (45min-1hr), The Otways, Forrest, Stevensons falls and Mountain Biking tracks (40min), and Warrnambool (2hr). There are several wineries, and Berry picking farms close by along with many other tourist destinations in the region.
The Cottage is perfect for family groups, and it is possible to pitch your own tent in the garden or pull up in your Caravan with off street parking provided. The Garden is great for children with a trampoline to keep them occupied, and a short walk away is the beautiful Barwon river, playground, local municipal swimming pool and skate park. the property is pet friendly although we ask that animals not be allowed inside the cottage. They are welcome to sleep on the verandah and if you leave the property to go site seeing but want to leave your four legged friends behind in a safe and secure location, there is a special area / day yard for them to be secured in.
