Forrest Country Guesthouse is a family run classic country retreat set in the quaint little township of Forrest, Gateway to the Otway National Park. Our guesthouse is adorned with original pieces of furniture and effects collected throughout the district. Every room enjoys a view over our rambling cottage garden.From the sunny verandah you can enjoy some much needed relaxation, take afternoon tea, or marvel at the native birdlife. Or, on a cooler day, simply enjoy sitting by the log fire in the restaurant with a good book. Our restaurant offers generous country cooked breakfasts, lunch, morning/afternoon teas and dinner.
