Brilliant decoration and comfortable warmth feeling

Jing Australia

The hosts (Dee and Chris) were so lovely and helpful throughout our stay. The property was beautiful with lovely decor and was very clean. Our room also had the most amazing bath and fireplace, making our stay very relaxing and cosy. Dee also made a lovely breakfast for us in the morning.

Em United Kingdom

Dee and her husband were lovely hosts to two weary travellers who arrived well past checkin! The room was spacious and bed was comfy with plenty of blankets and pillows. Bathroom was huge with a tub and rain shower, and the toiletries were a beautiful Manuka honey scent. Breakfast was the best part of all though! Locally sourced fruit, bread, eggs, tomatoes, homemade muffins, jam, butter, yogurt and muesli with OJ, tea, and barista made coffee on offer. The setup of the dining room was stunning and we felt like royalty. We will definitely be back and also send friends here. Thanks so much 1865 team!

Alecia Australia

It is part of the owners home - it has a home away from home ambience. We dined at Brae and so the drop off and pick up service (free of charge) is a big bonus for us.

M Australia

Wonderful people, Chris and Dee made us feel very welcome and the room was exceptional - a really lovely home away from home

Kristen Australia

Our hosts Dee and Chris were lovely. Very friendly and helpful. The suite was beautifully presented and very clean. They had thought of everything right down the bath salts. The bath was amazing and so comfortable. Only a 40 min drive to Lorne and the beaches. One night wasn't enough.

Cameron Australia

Incredible experience. The entire place was immaculately clean, much bigger than we expected, it was nice and cool on a hot day and we experienced friendly customer service when booking, in lead up and during stay. Would love to return!

Allie Australia

The breakfast was fresh and perfect. The bed was comfy and we will come back.

Lisa Australia

Dee and Chris were exceptional hosts and their BnB is beautiful with lots of attention to detail and cleanliness. They were kind enough to give us a lift to Brae and the breakfast was great!

Ellen Australia

Fabulously located in the heart of Birregurra. Hosts Deidre and Chris have meticulously restored a wonderful historical property into gorgeous bed and breakfast accommodation. Our room complete with a delightful sitting area and kitchenette was beautiful. A delicious breakfast was served in our own private dining room. Thank you Deidre and Chris for being fabulous hosts. Highly recommended as a base for exploring the Otway region. Thank you Chris for driving us to Brae. We will be back. 😊

Host Review Score
Built in 1865 as a Cobb & Co staging stop for travellers, this unquie building has been fully restored. After standing vacant for 12 years we have sympathetically restored and rennovated this historical back to its former glory. On offer are two very large suites (60+sqm), each with a full en-suite with cast iron bath and separate showers. Each suite is fully equiped with modern facilities, yet each retain that old world charm and charater. 1865 also offer guests the use of a lounge/dining room where home made breakfast is served, and in winter the opportunity to relax in front of an open fire.
We have lived and worked in USA, Canada, Singapore and Australia. After retiring in Melbourne we yearned for a tree change, and the opportunity to restore an aging building. After completing our restoration of 1865 we opened 1865 B&B, which has exceeded our expectations. We love meeting people and sharing our home with them.
Birregurra is a thriving community based village, offering visitors access to the beautiful Otway Ranges, The Great Ocean Road and one of the best restaurants in Australia, Brae. Our village itself offers guests the chance to unwind from their busy and modern lives, a chance to reflect on a simplier life.
