Johanna Seaside Cottages

THE PROPERTY
Johanna Seaside Cottages is a unique coastal property located just off the Great Ocean Road. Established in 1985 by owner operator Joy Evans, Johanna Seaside Cottages was one of the first self-contained accommodation providers to operate from a farming property along the Great Ocean Road. The 260 hectare coastal getaway is set on land pioneered and settled by the Evans family in the 1880s.

Nestled in the heart of the Great Ocean Road between the Otway National Park and Johanna Beach, the property offers spectacular views of the Southern Ocean, lush river flats, undulating hills and bushland. Close to the world famous Twelve Apostles, Johanna Seaside Cottages makes a perfect base from which to experience the many attractions and activities available in the area.

Johanna Seaside Cottages offers guests the exceptional combination of both a rural and seaside experience.

THE ACCOMMODATION
With seven cottages to choose from, the accredited and award winning accommodation offers something for everyone, from couples who are searching for seclusion, to groups and families looking for diversity. The cottages are individually located in private surrounds and offer a truly relaxing, personal
and peaceful experience.

The accommodation, as featured on 'Coxy's Big Break', 'Postcards' and 'Getaway' comprises two architecturally designed cottages, four beach cottages and an authentic Farmhouse.
