Rustic Luxury off The Great Ocean Road in Victoria Australia

1.5 hrs from Melbourne, Sleeps 10 ppl, Design Led, Pet Friendly Stay. Start your Great Ocean Road trip here at The Wensley in private rustic luxury. Wake to watch the Kangaroos as the sun rises or sleep in to the sound of nature. Great for multigenerational family gatherings. A place to Reconnect. Escape the city and breathe!

The Wensley is a Timber Architectural House that sits on 80acres of rolling hills in The Surf Coast Hinterland. When you stay, you’ll have exclusive access to the entire property, including the main house and shed (laundry). The home sleeps up to 10 guests across two downstairs bedrooms and a spacious loft with three ground-level bunk nooks. A cot is available, and pets are welcome.

Designed to bring the outdoors in, The Wensley’s soaring ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and natural finishes create an airy, uncluttered space to breathe. In summer, open the window-doors to let in the breeze, or switch on the air conditioning. In winter, curl up by the Chimenee Philippe fireplace, the centrepiece of the open-plan living and dining area.

The gourmet kitchen is fully equipped for entertaining, with a Falcon gas stove, electric oven, dishwasher, Nespresso machine, rice-coooker, wok, SodaStream, KitchenAid, and a walk-in pantry stocked with basic essentials. The dining table seats 10, and you can eat outside on the sunrise or sunset decks.

Downstairs, the master bedroom features a king pillow-top bed and walk-in robe, while the second bedroom has a queen bed in calming blue tones and full block-out blinds for long sleep-ins.

Upstairs, the loft includes two queen beds and one king with an ensuite, perfect for families or guests.

The stone bathtub in the main bathroom is made for slow soaks, opening onto a sunset deck with an outdoor shower and galvanised French tub, ideal for bathing under the stars. Alternatively you can fire up the wood-fired hot-tub and bath at sunrise (highly recommend)

There’s no TV in the main living space (by design), but you’ll find one in the loft and another in the shed. Instead, settle in with our books and board games, or stream your favourite music via the Sonos/Bose sound system and Wi-Fi.
