Pennyroyal Otways Retreat

Nestled in the picturesque Pennyroyal Valley, Pennyroyal Otways Retreat offers a tranquil countryside escape just 90 minutes from Melbourne and 15 minutes inland from Lorne. The retreat features three fully self-contained timber cottages—The Farmhouse, Forest Cottage, and Lakeview Cottage—each providing panoramic valley views, spacious verandahs, and cozy wood-burning fireplaces. Surrounded by native bushland, the property is home to alpacas, sheep, and diverse wildlife, including kangaroos and native birds. Guests can enjoy leisurely walks, fishing in the lakes, or simply relaxing amidst the serene natural beauty.
