The Great Ocean Road is a long stretch of highway covering 243 kilometres along Victoria’s southeastern coast. On either side lie the cities of Torquay and Allansford, but you’ll find plenty of exciting things to do in between as well. Venture along this road, and you’ll find yourself driving through rainforests, beaches and sandstone cliffs, all offering scenic ocean views. Considering the variety of attractions along the road, the whole family is sure to find something of interest on a Great Ocean Road holiday, and a quality holiday rental will complement the trip. Fortunately, the available holiday rentals are just as diverse as the landscape, and they’re available all year long.<\/p>\n\n\n

You’ll find no shortage of places to stay along the\u00a0Great Ocean Road<\/a>, so you just have to decide where you want your base of operations to be for your holiday adventure. Given the availability of holiday homes along the entire length of the highway, the most important factor when finding accommodation along the Great Ocean Road is the location. You can book your stay in one of the small towns or villages, or you can opt for something more remote. Either option can provide a satisfying holiday experience that the whole family can enjoy, though the experiences in each possibility are considerably different.<\/p>\n\n\n

Along the Great Ocean Road, you’ll find several small towns and villages, each with something special to offer. At the ends of the road, you’ll find\u00a0Torquay<\/a>\u00a0and Allansford, of course, but you can also book your stay in smaller towns, such as Apollo Bay or\u00a0Angelsea<\/a>. With so many of these towns located on the Surf Coast, you can enjoy all the convenience of being next to shops and restaurants without having to stray far from the beach. Additionally, Great Ocean Road holiday rentals in town tend to be more luxurious and come with high-quality amenities like a fully equipped modern kitchen and a central heating and cooling system.<\/p>\n\n\n

Finding a Great Ocean Road holiday house by\u00a0natural features<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n

While the towns have plenty to offer travellers along the highway, you can just as easily find a quality Great Ocean Road holiday house by some of the area’s natural features. Among the most famous landmarks is the 12 apostles, a series of limestone rock formations along the coast connected to the Port Campbell National Park. You may also want to stop by Great Otway National Park to see its sparkling waterfalls and gorges. At the Otway Fly Treetop Walk in the park, you can venture across the tops of ancient trees. Holiday homes by these natural features are typically more secluded and come with a bit of land in addition to the accommodation. You’ll also find them to be a bit more spacious, with plenty of room for the whole family.<\/p>\n\n\n
