New visitors to the Guesthouse! A pair of striated pardalotes have been checking out our tree ferns this morning - wouldn’t it be amazing if they chose to nest here! I was alerted to them by their call which I didn’t recognise. So sweet and so tiny! #striatedpardalote #pardalote #otwaysbirdwatching #otwayranges
Be in your element in the Otway Ranges this school holidays! Hire a bike from @forrestmtbhire, spot a platypus at Lake Elizabeth, watch the wonder of water falling at Stevensons falls, relax by the fire at @forrestguesthouse or grind some gravel in the hinterland of the @greatoceanroad.

Pizza from the @forrestgeneralstore on Friday nights! Missed out tonight? Get your order in next week! #LoveForrest #OtwayRanges
Worth sneaking out the back door tonight to catch an aurora - and maybe a picket fence? I’m still learning. What a place we live in… magical. #auroraaustralis #picketfenceaurora #LoveForrest
Spectacular weather in Forrest the last few days! Perfect riding conditions and all the waterfalls running nicely with recent rain. #forrestguesthouse #forrestmtbhire #otwayharvesttrail #otwayranges
The last of the Autumn leaves are still around… crisp mornings but still getting some warmth in the arvo if it’s sunny…. But the Winter chill is definitely creeping in. What’s your favourite Winter activity in the Otways? #chasingwaterfalls #gravelgrind #hiking #hotchocolate #knittingbythefire #otwayharvesttrail
Ely from Dar Tèta has given our guests such a lovely dining experience for the last three years! Praise for her cooking has appeared frequently in our reviews. Sad to see Dar Tèta moving on but we wish Ely and Akram all the best as they set up their new space in Colac. The locals will also miss this cosy space to meet and eat together. #newchapter #dartetacolac

Have you had brunch at the Brewery? Start your day right with this feast and a coffee. Just 100m from your suite 😉 #forrestbrewery #loveForrest #forrestguesthouse #otwayranges #otwayharvesttrail
WOW!! 🤩 Seems like a huge area of Vic got treated to a show last night. I snuck down the road to Skenes as there was quite a lot of cloud rolling in when I checked out the reservoir in Forrest. Well worth the effort!! Happy Mother’s Day! #auroraaustralis #skenescreek #aurora #forrestguesthouse #otwayranges #greatoceanroad
Autumn days are fading away… crisp mornings, sunny arvos and cool evenings…. Still a few beautiful autumn trees down by the Barwon but maybe only a week or so left for the colours…. #autumncolors #loveforrest #rideForrest #forrestguesthouse #forrestmtbhire
Forrest in Autumn 🍂😍 Crisp mornings give way to sunny afternoons. Autumn colours falling everywhere. The recent rain has the waterfalls running nicely again… what’s not to love?! #LoveForrest #RideForrest #HikeForrest #otwayharvesttrail
Freshly mown lawns and golden hour vibes. We love Autumn afternoons in Forrest! 🍁 🍂 #autumnvibes #forrestguesthouse #forrestmtbhire all we need now are the 🍄 to pop up
Came out to a street full of amazing cars…. So many Porsches! #targaclassica #targaclassica2024 #classiccars #forrestisneverboring
Our rear fence line has a hidden secret… it’s full of fruit! The nashi is our favourite and is loaded this year but we also have pears and some apples with multiple varieties grafted on the same tree. Thankful to previous owners to us who chose to plant the fruit it trees we now get to enjoy!

The lush green temperate rainforest is punctuated with these stunning hyacinth orchids at the moment. So eye catching and delicate, the details up close are beautiful 😍 #otwaynationalpark #otwayranges #loveforrest #nativeflowersofaustralia #hyacinthorchid #otwayharvesttrail
Beautiful Yellow Tailed Black Cockatoos! We found three of them in the trees outside the guesthouse last night and I ran inside to grab my camera. They are so stunning! These ones were peeling the bark off and pulling out the grubs. #cheekybirds #yellowtailedblackcockatoo #forrestguesthouse #loveForrest
