Why visit Bonnie's at Barwon Heads?

Surrounded by native birdlife and beautiful eucalypts, sit out on your large private north facing deck and catch the sea breezes
The eucalypts at Bonnie's are quite rare. They are indigenous to the area and there are very few of this particular species left. They are eucalyptus leucoxylon sp. Bellarernsis
How wonderful to enjoy these trees
For those who would rather be gastronomically tempted by an array of amazing restaurants, bars and other eateries, they are just a few minutes walk away.
Specialist delis including the superb Annie's are just around the corner.
If you're into a bit of retail therapy there are many boutiques and homewares stores to satisfy your taste.
Barwon Heads is located on the Bellarine Peninsula and is a short drive to Ocean Grove, Point Lonsdale and 45 minutes to the ferry at Queenscliff, where you can ride over to Sorrento.
The Bellarine peninsula is one of the most popular destinations on the Victorian foodie trail with so many wonderful options available for all tastes and budgets. The area has many highly acclaimed restaurants and more than 25 wineries. The peninsula also plays host to many music and food festivals along with numerous sporting events.
The Great Ocean Road, Lorne and the beautiful Erskine Falls are only a short drive away or visit the world famous Bells Beach in just 25 minutes.
Barwon Heads is also known for two world-class golf courses.
The Bluff lookout, walks and bike trails are all a must and the Jirrahlinga Koala and Wildlife Sanctuary is only five minutes away.
Bonnie's at Barwon is the perfect house to base yourself whilst you venture out and explore this beautiful region returning home to unwind and relax.
Just a 75 minute freeway drive to Melbourne means an easy commute to work if needed, leaving the family to enjoy their seaside home during the holidays.
Swim in the wide and picturesque river estuary or along the sandy river foreshore at the river mouth. Cast a line for a spot of fishing or, for more heart-racing adventure, head to the Bluff at Thirteenth Beach for some lively surfing action.

Excellent property
A delightful & very well equipped town house, loads of space and storage. The kitchen is modern, light and has all that is required for a relaxing time. The furnishings and bedding are very comfortable. The beach and cafes are just a walk away and we (6 adults) enjoyed the outside setting and secluded garden.

Bonnie's ticks all the boxes. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and felt at home in this beautiful, modern and perfectly finished townhouse. Great location, everything you need for your holiday and more. My two year old told me her favourite part of our holiday was...the house! We will definitely stay again.

Gorgeous house and beautiful weekend away
Spent a beautiful weekend away in this gorgeous house. Loved the fact that it was so modern and spotlessly clean. The bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and beautifully fitted out. It had a fireplace and great heating in all the rooms to warm you in the winter. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. Loved the plasma TV . We would love to go back in Summer and make use of the BBQ and the lovely patio. The house is in a great position within walking distance to the shops and a short drive to all the great attractions of Barwon Heads. I thoroughly recommend this beautiful house.
