ALLENVALE  ‘The Great Ocean Road's best kept secret

An easy two hour drive from Melbourne, mid way along the Great Ocean Road . Enjoy all that the surf coast has to offer without the noise, traffic, hustle and bustle!

Just 2 km from the town centre of Lorne, in a world of our own. ‘Allenvale’ is simply stunning. Kilometres of beautiful walking trails through rainforest to waterfalls, pick an apple from our century old organic apple orchard. Follow the St George river trail (Mountain to Surf Run), over river crossings to where the river mouth meets the beach and opens out to the sea. Stroll up the Allenvale Road to Lorne's premier Art Gallery 'QDOS', and enjoy fine food, wine, sculpture and constantly changing art.

The perfect base for all your Great Ocean Road and Otway Hinterland explorations. Pack a picnic and take the day to wind your way through Apollo Bay, to the Twelve Apostles, Otway Fly Treetop Walk, olives groves and wineries.

Exceptional convenience, comfortable eclectic mix of country furnishings, rustic charm and stunning beauty. 
We share the natural wonders of the area with a vast array of native fauna and birdlife. Kangaroos, Koalas, Possums, Kookaburras, Blue Wrens and Bower Birds to name just a few. 

We offer you a choice of self contained, private and individual accommodation for couples, groups and families. Ideal venue for your special event, intimate wedding party and more. Each cottage boasts gorgeous views of our stunning river and valley setting. 



"Part of the enchantment of Allenvale is driving down the gravel road and over the bridge to discover this gem of a place. Our daughter felt as though she had found the children's house in the Enchanted Wood, complete with ducks, river and forest. Kero is everything we wished for, cosy, tasteful, rustic with a touch of luxury - love the big soft cushions! This is the perfect getaway surrounded by the best of nature. Thank you for sharing Kero with us, we will certainly return. Our daughter wants to move here!......... Heaven" - Janine, Lola and Chris.
