Historic Quamby Homestead (c1888) Bed & Breakfast, is a short drive from Warrnambool, Port Fairy and the Great Ocean Road. Set in 70 acres of farmland, it offers the opportunity to soak up some history whilst enjoying fine accommodation in the serenity of a 3-acre botanical garden setting. Stroll in the garden, designed by renowned botanist William Guilfoyle, take a 2 km bush walk or visit the farm animals. Quamby is ideally located for travelling on to the Great Ocean Road, The Grampians, Ballarat, Melbourne, and over to South Australia (Robe, The Coonawarra region, Adelaide and beyond).
Guests can stay in accommodation throughout the garden, all with private entrances, providing privacy, peace and quiet. For short visits, stay in one of the five Mews Rooms with Queen or twin single beds. Or for a longer break the original School House and the converted Carriage House offer space to relax and unwind.
