The family of 4 (2 dogs). Absolutely love the place. Joy the Manager is great. The accomodation is terrific and tranquil. The views are superb, The beach only 500mtrs away. Home away from home. Been there 4 times and will soom make it 5. The dogs think it is great and are given 5 paw service. Thanks again.

We always enjoy our visits to Johanna cottages. Kid and pet friendly. Our kids love the indoor heated pool and being able to get fresh eggs in the morning. We love the living herb garden to complement our cooking. The views from the cottages are just to die for and there is so much to do within walking distance and short driving distance.

We had a fabulous stay at “Rivernook” with our 15 month old Rottweiler, Jake, who had never experienced farm life nor seen the ocean; we all enjoyed a great holiday at our ‘home away from home’ – in comfortable accommodation and beautiful, peaceful surroundings. Top marks! We’ll definitely come back again.
Joy and her team made us all truly welcome.

What a great place to stay, very comfortable with everything you could need. We have been a number of times taking our dogs who just love the walks along the beach as we did. Sitting on the deck looking across the valley who would want to be anywhere else.

Was fantastic.. the staff were great, yet not intrusive, the cottages are private, Accomodation is pet friendly yet you wouldn’t suspect this with the excellent condition the cottages are in. Access to both farm life and beach life is excellent!

Johanna Seaside Cottages is a beautiful getaway along the great ocean road. The accommodation itself is lovely, with cottages nestled amongst rolling hills with grazing cows, and a view over the beach. The best part is that the cottages are also dog-friendly so there’s no need to leave your dog in a kennel. The kitchen facilities are fantastic so it’s a great excuse to do lots of home cooking. We’ve been going every year for the past 3 years and love it

Finding dog friendly accommodation that also caters for humans isn’t always easy – but pooches & people alike were very happy with this choice: in fact we were all “pawfectly” happy….great views, great places to walk and a lovely place to curl up at the end of the day!

These are exceptional “dog friendly” B&Bs in an outstanding location. We have travelled across from Adelaide on a number of occassions and have recommended Johannas to all our friends. The cottages are well appointed, have a lovely outlook and are well separated offering exceptional privacy. The ultimate seaside escape.

A tranquil peaceful place, for that city break away. The accommodation was second to none and the views are breathtaking.
Majestic walks, fresh air and complete relaxation, cannot recommend this place enough, we had a wonderful time with some amazing memories.

What a location! This place has it all. Rolling hillsides, the ocean and all the comforts of home. What more could you ask for in a holiday destination.
I had one of my best birthdays at Johannna Seaside. Our dog was as relaxed and chilled out as the the two humans. After a run on the beach and through the paddocks she slept for many hours in front of the fireplace.
This place is the ultimate escape for dogs and their humans.

It was the best family holiday we have ever had. Right in the heart of the best of the Great Ocean Road and plenty of excitment on the farm for the Children and our two dogs. Indoor pool was fantastic and the accommodation just great. Our cabbin had the best bed we have ever slept in and finally, Joy and her Staff/family where very helpful. Really I could not fault our stay

Graeat location and very very comfortable, the hosts even have the fire lit for you when you arrive.
It is a great base from which to explore the Great OCean Road, we used it as our base for the Great Ocean Walk.
Highly recomended!

Amazing and tranquil part of the World, the cottages are just the perfect place to lay your head on nice fresh sheets; sleep in; wake up to a hot coffee and then pop down for a swim in the crystal blue waters. Immaculately presented and friendly staff.

#14 - Posted by Ellen Brogan on the: 09/17/2009 at 20:23

fantastic place to relax with the sea breeze and the farm animals at your doorstep

#15 - Posted by Daniel Mulder on the: 09/17/2009 at 20:25


Apart from the simply stunning views, and the feeling that you really do get away from it all here, Joy Evans is a fantastic hostess who really takes the time to make you feel welcome and explain the local area. A must if you want to spend time around the Great Ocean Road. We have been back more than once.

#16 - Posted by Martha Turner on the: 09/17/2009 at 20:25

My entire family loves this place, especially the four legged member. Joy Evan’s openness, welcoming nature and obvious delight in sharing her family home is nothing short of…well a joy (if you will pardon the pun). Breakfast never tasted so good than when made using eggs collected from the chookshed, herbs collected from the garden, or fruit collected from the orchard. Feeding the left overs to the chooks the next day really gives one a sense of the cycle of existence so missing from over overly busy city lives. Thanks Joy. Tony, Uther & I will all be back again.

I just love the west coast and the atmosphere of the area. As a surfer of more than 30 years, it just can’t be beaten as a destination and teh accommodation is fantastic.

#18 - Posted by Murray on the: 09/17/2009 at 20:42
We take my dogs with us when we go on holiday. This is the most pet friendly place I have ever taken the dogs to. The attention to detail to make the farm visitor friendly is remarkable. Even to the extent that the grass planted on the farm is a variety that makes it easier for the guess to get around. No bulls and no electric fences. Free eggs and vegetables.
A back gate that leads onto one of the best beaches in Australia.
It is quite a remarkable place to stay.

The most thoroughly relaxing and rejuvenating stay I have had
