2 Bedroom House in Forrest

A refurbishment that is still a work in progress, our rustic home in the town of Forrest is a wonderful place to stay whether you are exploring the Otways, the Great Ocean road, having dinner at Brae, or just spending a weekend discovering Forrest's mountain bike trails and brewery.
our home is comfortable and cosy we stay there ourselves as often as we can, but it is a small and pretty basic house, so if you are expecting 4 or 5 star accommodation, it will not be for you!
note: what we offer may be different to what you experience with other stays, so please read the following carefully
we offer a basic experience and only supply mattresses and pillows You will need to bring your own bed linen, quilts, towels and blankets.
also, if you are planning to use the wood heater, you will need to bring enough of your own firewood, kindling, and firelighters to last the duration of your stay, which can be picked up at any of the service stations along the way note that the main fireplace does not work
forrest is a relatively remote town, so stock up on any food or condiments that you think you will need for your stay Our kitchen is fully equipped, so you shouldn't have a problem once you are here.
forrest and the house get cold in the winter months We have a couple oil heaters and a wood heater, but pockets of the house can still get cold, so pack accordingly.
the bathroom is neat but basic, with a shower over bath, but the water is hot and runs well
please be aware that we have 4 security cameras on the outside of the house There are no cameras inside.
