Barwon Valley Lodge is spread out over 10 aces of gardens with all apartments ground floor and single story. This is unlike most other apartment complexes which tend to be multi-story buildings with very little space around them. Guests enjoy the spaciousness of Barwon Valley Lodge, with large apartments that have everything to make them feel at home.
