Caterina & Brett
***FOR NATURE LOVERS who want to get away from the hustle and bustle*** An Idyllic escape with the Great Ocean Walk at our door step awaiting you to reconnect back to nature and self. The perfect stay away from the hustle and bustle of modern life, you will feel in holiday mode right from the start with 8 acres of green space where the sweetest smells and sounds of nature reconnect you back to your soul. The property is located a short distance from the main town for the basics & food (5 kms) but far away enough to feel like you are in paradise. Lots of native wild animals visit our property and some wild animals such as koalas can always be found lingering in our trees that they call home. Our property is a haven for birds, wallaby's and many other Australian native animals. We have friendly sheep that you may feed and of course our friendly pet Alpine Dingoes can be made available for you to visit. They always love a pat and a its' a perfect photo opportunity and memoir for you to say you have petted and come in contact with an Alpine Dingo - Australia's Wild Canid.
Both Brett and Caterina are very warm, welcoming hosts. Being health professionals, we love people and listening to their stories, helping navigate them to have their best possible holiday in our area. We love the great outdoors and all it offers - we know the terrain very well. We want the best possible experience for our guests. We have moved from the city 7 years ago to live in a wonderful paradise so are able to give you different perspectives. We love showing guests our property, helping them get excited about seeing a koala, echidna, feeding the sheep and of course visiting our friendly dingoes where guests are welcome to take a keep sake photo for memories to take home with them. Caterina is a Naturopath so will keep you entertained with local stories of botanical wonders, indigenous folklore and the intriguing web of life that keeps us all connected. Caterina works full time as a naturopath, therefore appointments are required. If you are after a wellness appointment - you may be able to access her modalities such as Naturopathy, Iridology, Relaxation Massage, Kinesiology, Sound Healing with Crystal Bowls, Biofield Tuning with Tuning forks, Nutrition, Herbal Medicine, and for emotional states - Emotional Freedom Technique or Neuro Linguistic Programming. She can be contacted prior to your visit on the mobile number which is sent to you via email or text.
We are located on the iconic Great Ocean Road - We have the famous Great Ocean Road Walk at our doorstep, lots of local scenic walks, beautiful waterfalls 20 minutes by car, Redwoods, the beach is a 2 minute drive down the hill, lots of native birds (king parrots, sulphur crested cockatoos, black cockatoos, rosellas, king fishers- frequent our property amongst many others, grey kangaroos, swamp wallaby's, ringtail possums and sugar gliders are the common natives that regularly feature wildly on our property. Being 5kms from town, it is a very safe area however our property can be very dark at night - so make sure you have a torch as there are no city lights. This makes it ideal to view the Milky Way and star systems perfectly on a clear night. And if you need any help - we are located right next door to your room as we live onsite. A perfect place to rest, relax & rejuvenate and get into touch with who you are.
