Features

Johanna Beach

Be swept up in this untamed nature-scape, where the temperate rainforest meets the roaring sea via lush, rolling farmland.

With sustainable principles in practice, The Roost offers a front row seat to natures raw beauty.

Consisting of five green acres, perched 100m above sea level, you can watch the sets roll in across the valley while listening to native birdsongs from the comfort of Cottage One or monitor the surf from the prime vantage point of Cottage Two.

Both cottages are a short 1km stroll from Johanna Beach and along the Great Ocean Walk.

Conclude your day by watching a magnificent sunset, with the sand between your toes.

Explore. Unwind. The Roost.

Features

Doggo Friendly

The Roost is a proudly dog friendly accommodation, so the whole family (including pooches) can enjoy the beauty of this diverse landscape.

Your pup will be able to roam the lush pastures by day and snuggle up with you next to the fireplace by night.

Regrettably due to the delicate nature of the ecosystem and the lack of cat-run infrastructure, dogs are the only domestic pet that can be accommodated at The Roost.
