About this property

Wye Solace- Family and Pet Friendly Accomodation

Built by a builder for his own family, this fantastic family residence has been thoughtfully designed to take advantage of it's position overlooking the ocean, resulting in a light- filled home that's cool and inviting in summer and cosy in winter. It utilises gorgeous open-plan living, superb entertaining space and an exquisite fusion of natural timber and glass to create a unique space that simply works.

With the surf beach just a short stroll away, and the walking tracks of the Otway Ranges National Park right on your doorstep, this house is the ideal base for a restful break.

Busy days will be complemented by restful evenings watching the magic of yet another ruby sunset unfold before you. Native birds are frequent visitors to the deck and you may even spot a koala or two in the adjacent trees that embrace the property.

The open-plan kitchen with its wide stone benches offers all the modern appliances you'd expect to find in a contemporary kitchen, making entertaining a breeze. If you don't feel like cooking, however, the township of Wye River offers traditional pub meals and a General Store and Cafe that does a fantastic breakfast and lunch.

Wye River really is the ultimate destination along the Great Ocean Road- it's a relaxed and peaceful sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of city living- yet it's also just a short drive from the charm and convenience of Lorne,

Nespresso Coffee Capsule Machine, suitable with Nespresso sized pods only.

Very enjoyable stay
The family stayed here for a weekend. Could not fault anything. Only issue was getting check in information. Not a real issue as we received it on the day we arrived. Would have felt more comfortable if we knew the day before. Stunning property with a magnificent view.

Easter at Wye Solace
Beautiful house in a superb location - peaceful and private, stunning views, walking distance to beach, general store and hotel. The house was very spacious, clean and well equipped - perfect for a multigeneration family holiday. If you like hiking there is a fantastic bush walk that starts almost opposite the driveway and takes you through to Kennett River. Excellent communication with host, all instructions clear, offered a late checkout. Cant wait for an opportunity to rebook!

Great location and house, but could do with a few more kitchen appliances and serving ware
Lovely comfortable stay with a great view. The main bedroom has an ensuite but given it does lay completely close off, a lot of bathroom noises flow into the bedroom. And the combined shower/toilet is annoying as the shower water sprays on the floor surrounding the toilet. Some kind of curtain or separation would be better. The kitchen is very large but considering this, is fairly lightly stocked for serving ware and kitchen appliances (no sandwich press, no colander, very feee serving dishes. There are many drawers and cupboards in the kitchen but most are empty. Some often instructions would be useful too (had to google to work out the oven settings) Otherwise a very comfortable stay for a large family within walking distance to the beach.

Friends getaway
This is truly a beautiful property in a great location. There was ample room for what we needed and amazing views from the balcony. The only issue was the insects and crickets, the crickets started coming out of the drain in the main shower and alot of them through the house. We tried to get rid of the crickets but they kept coming back and even got into some of the bedrooms.

We loved Solace
It was everything we wanted- spacious, quiet, great views, several areas for relaxing, 2 bathrooms for a big group and plenty of parking space, walking distance to the store/pub if you want to be active, or a very short drive.

A comfortable house in a lovely part of the world
There was a lot of construction noise during our stay, but that will pass soon enough. The weather was excellent and the house was exactly as advertised. The outdoor furniture is old and in particular the swing chair looked a bit dangerous, but otherwise we had a great stay. Recommended for families.

Beautiful Property, great views
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Property as described, clean, comfortable, quality appliances & plenty of room. Bed was comfortable, log fire was cozy with plenty of wood supplied & views were fantastic. Highly recommended for a peaceful getaway. Super friendly birds on balcony was a highlight to hand feed. Also saw Koala in tree, Kookaburra & 3 Kangaroos hopping past the property. Jack was a pleasure to deal with & was very prompt in communication. Looking forward in returning & will definitely recommend.

Beautiful view and spacious, BIG plus is its ideal for pets!
The property was lovely, very spacious and I love the open plan kitchen and dining area overlooking the ocean, great to wake up to. Was a little concerned driving up towards the house as the road was narrow but the driveway was so easy to get in and out. Being a bit of a neat freak I swept the floor which was overall pretty clean, but could see some pet hairs around the lounge room, other than that, would definitely come back again! Jack was lovely and responsive. Just an FYI, best to do grocery shopping prior to arrival as the most well-equipped grocery store is 20 minutes away in Lorne. Thank you Jack for the pleasant stay.

Loved the sense of space, tranquility and view out to the water. Easy walk down the hill to the beach and well stocked Wye river general store. Cheeky cockatoos were fun morning latte companions and kids amusement.
