French Island Cottage - Camping

4 sites · Lodging75 acres · French Island, VIC
French Island is Victoria’s best kept secret. Most of the island is national park. There are lots of koalas, echidnas, birds, wildflowers, and a general store. It’s a great place to getaway… from everything. Our cottage offers sustainable luxury, with two comfy queen-bed rooms, each has a private bathroom, plus a lounge/kitchen with a cosy fire.  There's space for four more camping nearby, sharing the facilities.This is off-the-grid living; electricity and water come from the sky, heat from burning home grown timber. Take a short walk to 5 kms of deserted beach and the national park, hang out round the fire-pit, enjoy our DVD and games library, order a meal… or a cocktail… or do nothing much at all. Our property is 75 acres of diverse wooded heath land, which we are enthusiastically rejuvenating to capture carbon. There’s a lot to see and like.

Trickle Hill Cottage

1 site · Lodging27 acres · Cockatoo, VIC
Trickle Hill is a lovely cottage tucked away at the edge of our bush. You have your own little patio, and can go for adventurous walks straight from your living room ! We are close to Dandenong ranges, Yarra valley, Bunyip state park, and Puffing Billy. We are just behind Avalon castle- so great if you are attending a wedding We welcome couples, solo adventurers and families. We are of course LGBTI+ friendly! Dogs are very welcome. The cottage is a converted shed, with three bedrooms, a lovely living area and a cosy closed woodfire. We have a sheltered outdoor area, where you can have a barbeque, or have a small fire in a firedish. The cottage is in the bush, so you can walk out and try to find our resident breeding pair of Lyrebirds, echidnas, wombats, wallabies and kangaroos or the deer that live in our 'back yard'. Or just roam, which shouldn't be too hard on 67 acres . We are close to massive areas of bush with open trails. Dogs are very welcome- no cats. As we live in the bush, we do our best to keep everything as 'green' as we can- so please don't use harsh chemicals. Living in the bush brings with it that you cannot light a fire in fire danger periods, and, heating on a woodstove, means there is a hot stove in the room. (watch those little fingers...) Our aim is to give you a place of rest and enjoyment. We love to share our space as we love it here so much- and hope you love it too. As life is a project - don't expect 10* linen and luxury, state of the art gardens and clipped lawns, but a friendly welcoming atmosphere where you can be yourself and relax. We love to have visitors, and chat for a bit- or leave you to relax. The cottage is on the edge of the bush, where you are welcome to roam on the tracks or off them- at your own risk :-) We are both artists, and our studio's are close to the cottage, which might make some noise, but we'll try to keep it at a minimum when guests are here. The upside is, you could learn something if interested :-) (contact us for workshops) We have a working hobby farm- with some machinery, animals (pigs, dogs, horses, ducks and chickens). You can interact with the animals if you talk to us about safety first, but the horse paddock is out of bounds. ( they can behave unpredictable, are very large (!) and very valuable) Our dogs are very friendly and will most probably visit you. Our puppy still has lots to learn :-) Our property is stock- fenced, our animals will stay in, but dogs are able to roam if they are not staying with you. There is no secure yard to leave your dog during the day, you are expected to be in control of your dogs at all times. If they are ok with horses, chooks and dogs, and under voice command, they can be off leash. Dogs are not to sleep on the beds. We are a rural property with animals, and there are dams on the property, (not close to the cottage) so please keep an eye on children - we cannot take responsibility for your persons or animals. Living on a farm means that not everything is neat, safe, flat or person-proof. Often there is actual work being done involving machinery. Coming here is entirely at your own risk. (sorry for all the disclaimers...) But- of course- if there is anything we can do to make your visit more pleasurable, we will do our best to do so!

Maddens Lane Cottages Bellarine

2 sites · Lodging30 acres · Marcus Hill, VIC
Tucked away in the rural heart of the Bellarine Peninsula you’ll find Maddens Lane Cottages, two charming farm-stay cottages available for holiday rental.

Situated on a 30 acre property, the cottages are nestled amongst native trees, overlooking open farmland. If you’re feeling energetic, why not head off to the beautiful Bellarine Rail Trail, stroll down the lane to the local harvest shop, roll out a yoga mat for a serene start to the day, or pack a picnic for a day out exploring the countryside or the beaches. So much to do in this lovely part of the Bellarine, come for the weekend or stay for a week! 10 mins drive to Ocean Grove/Point Lonsdale, 15 mins to Barwon Heads/Queenscliff/Portarlington Guests are welcome to wander the grounds of the cottage, including a wooded area and open grassed paddock.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS We welcome guests of all ages, however please note that our fences are farm post & wire fences, and are not toddler proof! There is also an electrified fence around 50m from the back of the cottage as we have two wiley mini Highland cows who love to explore! The fence is clearly signed, but young children must be made aware of it. There is no handrail on the front and back veranda/ decks - whilst not particularly high, care must be taken when using these areas.

Far View Holiday Homes

2 sites · Lodging1 acre · Venus Bay, VIC
Tucked away at the ‘Paris end’ of Venus Bay’s First Estate, we offer a peace and stillness that is hard to find in the busy modern world. Sweeping views across the paddocks are framed by ancient pines and ocean dunes as cares dissolve with the casual tumble of the windmills on the horizon and the distant rumble of the surf. We are located within easy walking distance to shops, café and beaches. Beach 1 is a 15-minute walk across a nearby track over the dunes. Stunning views over farmland, Bald Hill wind farms and out to Wilsons Prom. You can either select the recently renovated house or go retro and stay in the self-contained 1960's renovated caravan. We don't book both properties together so rest assured you will have the place to yourself. Both properties are pet friendly, so you are more than welcomed to bring your dog or even your cat as we have a fully enclosed cat run. Outdoors you will find plenty of areas to sit back and soak in the views.

Cabins in Phillip Island with campfires guide

Overview

If you want to see some of Australia’s iconic animals, Victoria’s Phillip Island is a must-visit. Famed for its free-roaming penguins and the country’s largest colony of fur seals, the island is also home to the Phillip Island Wildlife Park, with more than 100 different species of native animals, as well as a koala conservation center. You’ll also find a dramatic coastline with beaches perfect for swimming and surfing. Many travelers visit on a day trip from Melbourne, but by setting up camp for a night or more, you’ll get to enjoy all the island has to offer.

Where to go

Summerlands

On the southwestern tip of Phillip Island, Summerlands is home to the island’s main attraction, the Penguin Parade. The natural spectacle of tens of thousands of penguins emerging from the ocean and waddling toward their nests takes place just after sunset every evening. Nearby you’ll find Nobbies Centre, outside of which you can see fur seals and birds, then learn about them through interactive displays. As Summerlands is a protected area, you’ll need to set up camp a little farther away. Nevertheless, you’ll find camping areas within a 10-minute drive.

Ventnor

In the small town of Ventnor, just a five-minute drive from the Penguin Parade, camping options include upscale glamping near Berry’s Beach and rural settings near Ventnor Beach.

Cowes

As the island’s main township, Cowes is home to several accommodation options, including camping areas. Your choices include family-friendly holiday parks with access to both the beach and nearby shops and restaurants.

Newhaven

In the southeast of the island, minutes from San Remo, Newhaven is home to caravan parks set upon sand dunes. Some parks feature powered caravan sites and non-powered camping grounds, plus comforts such as wifi and family playgrounds.
