Ocean View Cape Cottage
Cozy space! Private and serene. Your neighbours are the local wild birds that will come at greet you on the porch (especially if you have food!). Warm and inviting. Just want we needed for a short getaway.

Anderson St Beach House (No Schoolies Accepted)
Great location, walk to restaurants etc. lots of room in the house, lots of beds

Ocean Road Holiday House
The house was in a quiet location exactly as described. Only a few minutes away from Apollo Bay and a great launching place for exploration along the Great Ocean Road. Beds were clean and comfortable and we all got a good sleep. We bought dinner from the co-op and sat out on the front deck with the local birdlife. Just be warned, the magpie does not take no for an answer but sings a beautiful song after being fed!

Retro dream in Ocean Grove
We are a family spanning 3 generations 3-71 years. We all had a great time. Something for everyone. Multiple spaces for different activities made family dynamics easy! Retro Dream is really fun and quirky. Very comfortable and well equipped. Highly recommend a stay here any season.

Beach Cottage
Beautiful little cottage, very simple, basic amenities which is what we prefer when going on holiday with our two young kids. Minimal walking distance to beach, easy parking and walk into town. Really nice stay…

Bluetopia
We spent our Christmas there and it was absolutely perfect! Home away from home! With loads of space and had everything you would have in your own home! Unfortunately we didn’t get the weather to use the pool much but it was certainly a fantastic addition to our stay! Would love to stay there again!

Bellarine Beach Shack
Great location and view of the bay. We really had an enjoyable peaceful weekend away. The home was well equipped with everything you would possibly need and Amy was lovely to deal with and always contactable. We will definitely be back to stay again…

Villa Biarritz retreat in Blairgowrie (Spa-Sauna)
Biarritz is a beautiful, stylish villa in a peaceful garden setting and Sylvie is an excellent host, always so friendly, responsive and helpful. We were three generations staying for eleven nights after Xmas and the five bedrooms, spacious, bright, open plan living, kitchen, dining areas suited us perfectly. The new spa and sauna were a well used added bonus. Sylvie has ensured every room is so well equipped, with all we needed plus many extras and thoughtful touches that we have not seen in other houses, and all is of a high quality. Thank you so much, Sylvie for a wonderful holiday. Moira

Your guide to Anglesea
All about Anglesea
Now a cute surf village that draws families and holiday crowds to enjoy its safe, scenic white sand beaches, this Great Ocean Road town’s current quaintness belies its history as an open-cut coal mine and a place once called Swampy Creek. But the name changed in 1884 and the mine closed in 2015, and now Anglesea better fits the regional moniker — the Surf Coast Shire. The long beaches situated below craggy cliffs make for great views along the area’s many walking trails that weave along the water and near the town, giving visitors many chances to check out the local flora and fauna, including the famed spring flowers.
The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Anglesea
December holidays bring the big summer crowds to Anglesea, when people celebrate while the town sees its best weather of the year. The coastal region receives a decent amount of rain year-round, but December and January see only about eight days of rain each month, while winter months see rain more than half the days each month — which, of course, brings out the storied spring blooms. The summer also brings warm days with average high temperatures around 75 degrees Fahrenheit and pleasant evenings with lows in the high 50s, which is about what the average highs are during the moderate winters. Overall, the pleasant climate makes for good walking weather and requires little more than packing a raincoat.
Top things to do in Anglesea
Guvvos Beach
Just south of town — about a two-mile stroll along the Surf Coast Walk — sits the longest beach in the area. Wide, empty stretches of sand leave plenty of room for visitors to enjoy the sun, while consistent waves draw enthusiastic surfers.
Riverbank Markets
Anglesea’s famous Sunday and holiday markets serve the area and visitors alike with produce, prepared foods, crafts, jewelry, clothes, toys, and lots more. More than a hundred stalls sell their wares from the scenic location on Great Ocean Road, and the profits go toward supporting the local community.
Coogoorah Park Nature Reserve
This large park demonstrates the reason for the town’s original Swampy Creek name — Coogoorah means the same. But the marshy island area covered in trails brings visitors the opportunity to walk over bridges and along paths through the river-fed landscape and admire the tea trees, paperbarks, and other flora and fauna. Picnic and barbecue facilities make it an inviting place to spend the day, especially for families with children who can enjoy the adventure playground.
