Glamping near Lorne guide

Overview

A scenic road trip along Australia's Great Ocean Road is a quintessential Aussie travel experience, but you don't have to rent a campervan or pack your tent to camp along the famous road. Whether you want to cosy up in a riverside cabin, enjoy a luxury bush camping experience in a safari tent, or spend the night at a unique private Hipcamp, there are plenty of ways to go glamping along the Great Ocean Road. Glampsites typically afford home comforts such as a king-size bed, wifi, charging stations, and air-conditioning (a must-have for summer campers), but you might also have a kitchenette, private deck, and access to a swimming pool. Within an hour's drive of Torquay, the official start of the coastal road, Lorne makes the perfect basecamp, where you can swim and surf at the beach, hike to waterfalls in the Great Otway National Park, and enjoy bushwalking along the coast.
