Hilltop Hideaway Villas
Hilltop Hideaway
We were lucky enough to get to take off for the weekend and spend 2 nights in the hills/forest just off the beach.
Where
The Hilltop Hideaway is just outside Lorne, on the Great Ocean Road in sothern Victoria.
Who
Jess and Richie
Jess and Richie are the owners. Erin found out about this through Jess as they use to work together in Hobart. Being a friend of Erin, we were able to really make the most of the property.
Cody Harrington
The neighbours dog spends most of his time hanging out at the house. He is a friendly dog, but he has dietary issues so visitors are advised not feed him.
The Locals
There are quite a few native birds in the area that like to come and grab a snack from guests. These were a couple of the local parrots(?) that would come and eat from your hand.
Amenities
There are several amenties on-site that make it a nice place to relax.
The ourdoor couch overlooks the trees and birds.
There is a great view from the hot tub, and of a night time you are far enough away from the city to look up at the stars.
There is a BBQ provided with everything you need to cook on and clean up when you are done.
Activites
Jess and Richie have a couple of small dirtbikes, and Jess was kind enough to let Tully and I go for a ride on them.
One of their neighbours is an Australian enduro champion who has made some jumps and tracks around the area adjoining the two properties, and there is a file trail that heads off into the national forest. These provided pleanty of space to buzz around on the bikes,
