If you'd love a little country relaxation, as well as the opportunity to explore some of the wonderful foodie experiences the Otways has to offer, then a stay at Otway Fields will be the perfect launching pad for your culinary adventure! We are situated 2 hours from Melbourne and only 20 minutes from award winning chef Dan Hunter's Brae Restaurant in Birregurra. We will be happy to escort you to and from the restaurant if you wish to treat yourself!

Your stay will be in a beautifully renovated loggers hut. Quality linen, comfortable bed, couch and a well appointed kitchenette has everything to make your stay one to remember. A small library with books and DVD's is there for your pleasure. The cabin overlooks pasture towards the Otways. A few very relaxing hours can be spent just looking at the views!

There is an organic kitchen garden on the farm which guests are welcome to explore and enjoy. You will receive a gourmet breakfast basket with farm fresh eggs, farm cured bacon, home baked bread and many other seasonal offerings. You will also receive of Otway Fields preserves for your toast.
