Countrywide Cottages, Bambra, Victoria, VIC, Australia, Countrywide Cottages offers 4 star, pet friendly,
self contained cottages. Choose from our 4 secluded Great Ocean Road cottages spread
over 26 acres of farm and pristine bushland. Ideally located in country
Victoria only 25 minutes north of Lorne and 1.5 – 2 hrs from Melbourne,
this is the perfect accommodation on Great Ocean Road, Victoria. One of
our cottages even features wheelchair friendly accommodation!
When did life stop being so gloriously simple?
Start with a lovely long walk or ride your mountain bike around the bush
block in which the cottages sit, or extend yourselves by wondering on
to the Otway Forest Park, which our property abuts. You'll find that our
property offers the best activites of any
farmstay accommodation
victoria options you might have!
Check out the recreation area with a pool table and dart board in the
"pub" and a gas BBQ undercover in the "saddlery" next door. There’s
plenty of room to kick the footy or bowl a few overs.
Bring your children up to help us feed our array of critters in the
mornings - the bunnies, chickens, sheep and alpacas. There’s always a
bunny in need of a cuddle and the chickens' eggs are finders’ keepers!
Remember your Huckleberry Finn days and take the kids yabbying in our
huge and well stocked yabby dam. Just the thing for some muddy fun.
Strings, nets and catch bucket provided. Bring some smelly old meat with
you to lure them in. Yabbies (Australia's fresh water shrimp) are
wonderful tossed in some garlic and butter or have them the good old
fashioned way with some vinegar - yum! We've even got some recipies for
you in the cottage.
Perfect venue for wandering the bush by day, or take in a torch lit
night walk for a tree top search for possums. Finish off a great day
with a camp fire out the front of your cottage and toast the night away
with gooey marshmallows! Each cottage boasts a bonfire area for those
cosy evening wood BBQ's and marshmallow toastings (seasonal restrictions
apply). Why not try your hand at creating some damper?
Of course, there's always the cottage verandah for a lovely quiet sit
and sip as you watch the gorgeous King Parrots and Crimson Rosellas
enjoy their meal from the bird feeders.
Or take out the binoculars and do some serious bird watching. We have
had some serious amateur bird watchers visit who have seen in excess of
40 different birds in just 24 hours. If you are lucky, you may even get
to see one of the Powerful Owls roosting in the bush land next door.

Anyone for tennis? Bambra tennis courts are 3 k's down the road and are
available to our guests to use free of charge. Coin operated night
lights are also available, so bring your tennis gear and have a hit
while you are down.
