Romantic, secluded luxury accommodation for couples. Exquisite views across the sea, close enough for beach walks, beautiful Restaurants of Lorne or Apollo Bay. Set high in the tranquil valley – lie in bed listening to waves crashing below. Friendly host offering magnificent breakfasts and gourmet picnic basket with prior arrangement. Well appointed, stylish and all mod cons including private balcony and twin spa. Perfectly relaxing and peaceful, easy drive from Melbourne.

Our stay was only short – over night – but it was long enough to know that this is a special place and one we must return to soon…
The most incredible B&B I’ve never seen!!! Room is so romantic with an amazing view on the Ocean…. Wake up with colored parrots and a lovely breakfast in bed…… We spent 2 unforgettable days there!!!
Federica and Loris from Italy
The most gorgeous views and simple yet stunning decore along with the most sublime food served to your room with a smile everyday. We had a magical honeymoon here and never wanted to leave! It will always be our favourite romantic escape.
‘A Room with A View B&B’ will forever be part of one of the happiest moments of my life – it was here that my partner and I got engaged! The world class views, fantastic friendly service and special extra touches made this unforgettable weekend even more magical. Thank you ‘ A Room with A View B&B’!
We had 2 nights in Room with a View as an engagement present and couldn’t have asked for a better weekend away – koalas in the trees, spectacular views of the rugged coastline, a spa bath in which we could have fit our entire wedding party, the magnificent Otway Ranges in the backgarden, and delicious breakfasts brought to the door.
If you have to choose just one place to stay in Victoria, Room With a View is it!
I have stayed at ROOM WITH A VIEW twice, and on both occasions received a very warm welcome. The aspect of the B&B is breath taking. Our requests were never too much trouble; even those that were a little outside the normal call of duty (Great Vic Bike Ride pickups and drop-offs!). We were particularly impressed with the room service, including evening meals of true gourmet standard – memorable food. Every need was met, whilst our privacy was respected. A truely marvelous place in every way.
Its the kind of place that makes you wanna leave the city, buy a place like the owner here did and build yourself a home here… or even another B&B.
The location is great. The hosts are wonderful, iniviting, warm people. The accomodation itself is fantastic. What’s better than waking up and seeing the views of the ocean from your bed…
Amazing weekend away. great view and great breakfast! will happily stay again!
Staying there was the highlight of the trip. Would go there again and tell all my friends. Very happy to be the first Ecuadorian to stay
We loved our anniversary weekend! Everyone comments on the views, and why not? But we also loved the walks. Down to the beautiful creek with wonderful plants..and koala! Magic!!
Stunning view, fantastic breakfast, a great little getaway
What a beautiful place to stay with a gorgeous view. The spa was very relaxing and the breakfast was delicious!
We hebben een mooi verblijf gehad in Apollo Bay in de B&B A room with a view.
Het is fantastisch gelegen met een ongeloofelijk uitzicht.
Heel gastvrije gastvrouw.
Fantastic!
I love this place for just too many reasons to put down.
We’ve stayed so many times and will continue to do so although I think we need to stop recommending it as it is getting harder to get a booking.
It’s hard to know where to start…. only a Jane Austen could find the right words to describe the experience. Everything from the view to the food and service was just first class. We had such a wonderful, relaxing time and can’t wait to be able to do it all again.
See you in the New Year!
Breathtaking. Rejuvenating. Tranquillity. These words best describe room with a view. This retreat is somewhere to relax and forget the day to day rush of everyday life. As you step outside the walls of the comfortable cabins you are surrounded by nature at is finest, from the lush green grass to the deep blue ocean you feel totally excluded from the world outside. Room with a view provides a tasty breakfast to enjoy whilst sitting back embracing this surrounding beauty. The welcoming hosts Angelika and Gary Millar are professional and in no way intrusive during your stay. I would highly recommend room with a view to anyone looking for time away from their day to day lives.
Fantastic place. Such a beautiful location with a totally amazing view. And the croissant was about the best in the world.
On our trip from Melbourne to Adelaide we stayed two nights at this fantastic b&b. We tremendously enjoyed the breath taking views, the peaceful tranquility, the hospitality of our hosts and the comfort of our room. Definitely thumb up or as they say “worth a detour”… Stay here on your trip down the Great Ocean Road but book early!
10 out of 10!!!
The magnificent views, Angelika’s wonderful cooking and the friendly pets all combine to provide a wonderful hospitality experience. Way better than a home away from home.
a place i stumbled across and sure glad i did spent my first anniversary with annie there and are now engaged, the most perfect weekend from the views (views indeed perfect!) to the room all to be topped of by valhalla feast for breakfast. went early this year and were a sure thing to go back
A great experience and one of the more memorable stops during our 3 weeks in Australia! Listening to the birds, seeing a rainbow coming in off the ocean after a quick rain shower, and of course the superb breakfast! Thank you Angelika for your recommendations on hiking. We had a blast!
A Room with a View is exactly what it suggests… My boyfriend and I spent our first anniversary there, and had a weekend that will be very hard to live up to! We’re now engaged, and I cannot wait for a chance to go back and wake up to that breathtaking vista, complemented in no small way by one of Angelika’s AMAZING chocolate croissants! The best part about the place, apart from the incredibly warm hospitality, is that it is dog-friendly- our little dog had a wonderful time as well! Couldn’t recommend it more highly.
We had a wonderful stay are Room with a View and have even sent some friends from Nashville there this fall. Exquisite food and comfort, and of course, a spectacular view, even in the rain when we visited.
Absolutely wonderful. Our adult daughter came too and was given a decent bed downstairs which cramped us. View was spectacular and breakfast was amazing, which is what everyone says, but it’s a must!
Great relaxing place to unwind rejuvinate and reflect on life all my family want to go and stay there after i told them about it with the added bonus of bringing your best friend(dog) it is a great scenic relaxing retreat you will come back feeling whole again!!!!
We surprised friends, who were visiting from the Netherlands, with a weekend away at “A Room with a View” . Driving along the Great Ocean Road was amazing and then to arrive at this gorgeous spot with its superb view – they were gobsmacked. The accomodation was first class, so was the service – breakfast was YUMMY! We hope to make it back there one day.
A perfect romantic escape!
Thank you for a wonderful cosy private stay. The view was really ace and breaky was soooo delicious! loved those croissants!!
Kat & Chris
The name says it all with so much more. How does Angelika produce such a delicious breakfast, I would be constantly burning the pancakes whilst gazing out that window!! Visiting bird & animal life a joy to observe amongst the peaceful & relaxing surroundings. A memorable stay on our journey along the Great Ocean Road.
Was a fantastic relaxing and secluded weekend away. the service was great – looked after us but left us to our own which was just perfect!
A room with a view was the perfect romantic and relaxing getaway we needed 4 our 1st weekend away without baby. The breakfast was delicous, the view was amazing and loved seeing and hearing the birds and horse, close 2 waterfalls and lovley restaurants in apollo bay. We were very impressed with the affordability and comfort of A room with a view. Looking forward 2 coming back lots more.
The wife and I were looking for a secluded weekend away and we couldn’t have wished for better. We stayed there two nights and each morning we woke to the sounds of rosellas and the ocean waves crashing. Not only are you treated to spectacular views but also to some of Australias colourful wildlife with rosellas and cockatoos. The large windows in the bedroom and living area displayed a perfect view of nature at its finest. In the evening a nice relaxing spa bath made for the end to very relaxing days. Although secluded in location, it is not remote with Apollo Bay a leisurely 15 minute drive with some great restaurants and of course the beach. It is definitely the finest place we have stayed in Australia and look forward to revisiting it in the future. It’s a slice of paradise just off the beaten track.
I loved staying here. It was a magical experience and definately one i’d love to experience again.
What a great romantic weekend away, great views of the sea, great country side. The views from the Bedroom are just superb Great to get away from the City with such a nice easy beautiful drive. Angelika was the perfect host, our breakfast was on time and very filling and her local knowledge was very helpful and always had a smiling face on our return. Don’t forget to check out the horses. A perfect Weekend Away.
We loved our stay at a Room with a View and can’t wait to get back there again. The views, the preace … the majesty. A great way to escape the hassles of city life and re-charge. Angelika and Garry are fabulous hosts who cold not do enough to make our stay memorable.
Absolutely fantastic place to stay and get away from it all. Lovely hosts, delicious breakfasts and fantastic views. The accommodation was fantastic too.
We had a beautifully restful few days enjoying the peace, the birds and the wonderful view. Keep it up
We had a wonderful stay at Room with a View- probably our best getaway ever. Perfect hosts, attentive but not intrusive, and simply delicious breakfast. I can still remember the pancakes with berries. I would recommend Room with a View to anyone, and have done so already. Amanda
good food bought from Vic market on the way through; great wine from the Yarra Valley; my best friend, my wife of 30 years, all made complete by a long weekend at A room with a view; stunning views; tranquil setting; wonderful warm & generous hosts; a short hop into Apollo Bay during the day, but make sure you are back in time to take in the twilight. Oh, & the breakfasts, well, they are something else again
Just got home from 2 fantastic nights @ Room with A View.. Absolutely loved the views, awesome breakfasts and will reccomend to anyone that wants to get away from the rat race!
The hospitality of Angelika and Gary was fantastic and we hope to return for many more memorable moments on the great ocean road!!
An absolute haven the views are amazing. Have chosen this destination for 2 holidays and have never been disappointed. Rain,hail or shine it is a wonderful escape from the rat race. The breakfasts are amazing and the hosts Angelika and Gary are very welcoming. We will definately return for visit number 3 we keep dreaming about those chocolate croissants and that view which cant be beaten
The views are fantastic, you are immersed in them due to the generously sized glass windows looking out over green fields and trees down to the ocean. Angelika and Gary are lovely and unobtrusive hosts, their breakfasts are delicious, and there was even a bonus wildlife experience for us city folks, a sleep koala in the tree out the back.
Great stay, great place to spent quiet and relaxed holidays.
Our visit to room with a view was magical and very romantic, I would and have recommended it to lots of people.
Stunning view and lovely hosts. I will definitely go back there again!
The service was exceptional with Angelika squeezing us in at short notice. And best of all it was exactly as its name suggests – a fab room with a great view!
Our too brief a stay was wonderful. Would definitely return. Fantastic hosts.
A magical view to wake up to…lovely hosts….gourmet scrumptious, home cooked breakfast..peaceful…yet close to all attractions along the majestic Great Ocean Road…thats if you can break away from that view!!!!
Very romantic & comfortable place to stay for our 2nd Anniversary. Scrumpous Breakfast with sea views. Price very reasonable. Thanks Angelika
A Room with a View was the perfect end to a month in Oz. It was the clumination of all the amazing things we found in that country; amazing scenery, wildlife, fantastic food and friendly people. We were so lucky to have found your place and can’t wait to come back.
All Hail the Queen of Croissants!!!

The perfect place to lose yourself in your own thoughts and be with someone you love
What an absolutely peaceful location with the most wonderful view, a delectable breakfast and fantastic hosts.
Great romantic place to unwind & accepts pets which is great
The best views and sensational breakfast. My little dog ‘Ragwort’ just loved it too!
The weather was wild and stormy outside but we were warm and cosy and what a wonderful place to take in the view and watch the rain roll by. A wonderfully relaxing weekend.
We just left yesterday & wish we were still there!!! Just a wonderful place & dog friendly!!!
Room with a View lives up to expectations promised in the photos and yet it is so much more….
Take for granted the first class accommodation, the breakfasts, the unobtrusive professional care… and enjoy nature in a part of Victoria that is unspoiled by our footsteps.
My wife and I arrived at night under a sky full of stars and checked into our very spacious and comfortable room. We had no idea what the surroundings would look light in daylight. When we arose the next morning, what a breathtaking view awaited us from the large picture windows all across the back, facing the sea. Had we not had a plane to catch, we would have enjoyed wandering the lush grounds and taking in the beautiful vistas. Room With A View B&B will definitely be on our priority list of places to stay if (when!) we return to Australia and the Great Ocean Road!
The ultimate in privacy and tranquility with views you have to see to believe. Add to that delicious breakfasts served to your door by delightful friendly hosts all only a few kms away from Apollo Bay and all the other little wonders the Great Ocean Road has to offer. We’ll definitely be back!
IF YOU WANT PEACE, SUPERB VIEWS, 4+ STAR COMFORT AND PROXIMITY TO THE GREAT OCEAN ROAD NEAR APOLLO BAY AND THE OTWAYS, YOU REALLY CAN’T GO PAST “A ROOM WITH A VIEW”. AND THEN THERE’S THE DRIVE, NO MATTER WHICH WAY YOU APPROACH IT.
Perfectly positioned to enjoy the coast but avoid traffic noise. The outlook is superb. The breakfasts are to die for and the host and hostess the most professional and delightful I have seen.
Gorgoeous romantic location. great hosts with sensational food. Just off quite country road that is good for mountain biking (gentle rise for quite a few kms – stunning views coming back down), leads to some nice tracks and waterfalls. Do yourself a favour and take your bike.
Amazing views! Amazing comfort! Amazing hospitality! Could ask for no more in a wonderful weekend away!
I have stayed at a few places on the Great Ocean Road, and this place has to be the best. Exquisite surroundings, lovely hosts and marvelous coffee!
A great destination to soak up the atmosphere and tranquility of this beautiful part of Victoria. I look forward to returning to enjoy the great hospitality and sensational views.
I stayed at the room with a view B&B after one new years eve and i couldn’t have wanted to be anywhere else. Comfortale, relaxing and with that view, WOW! Great food too. X
had a ball & cant wait to come back
A wonderful place for a weekend or midweek escape. Beautiful views and and a wonderful room. The perfect place to relax!
What a relaxing place to stay. My favourite destination on the Great Ocean Road.
The ideal weekend escape. Secluded, mouth-watering breakfasts & breathtaking views… It has it all.
This place just has it all! The view is spectacular, the breakfasts are scrumptious, the room was so comfortable and the tranquility was amazing.
Amazing value for money, great views and surroundings, quality accommodation.We love the breakfast, friendly hosts and native animals.
Extraordinary views and sumptuous breakfasts with proper espresso coffee. The accommodation offers a very comfortable experience without unnecessary clutter. The hosts Angelika and Gary Millar are the consummate professionals.
