Cape Otway Lightstation

Climb to the top of mainland Australia`s oldest lighthouse, 90 metres above the wild Southern Ocean and see where many tragic shipwrecks occurred on this isolated and rugged coastline. Immerse yourself in history with one of Australia's most important and recognisable lighthouses at your doorstep. Spectacular scenery, lighthouse tours, wildlife (koalas, wallabies and whales), rainforests, waterfalls and awesome sunsets will be highlights of your stay. Cape Otway is an excellent location to base yourself, being central to Great Ocean Road and Otway National Park activities and walks.


Groups of up to 16 people can be accommodated in the heritage Head Lighthouse Keeper's cottage with four bedrooms, two bathrooms, open fires and fully self contained kitchen and laundry facilities. Two night minimum stays. The cottage is a wonderful retreat for families, walking groups or as a unique venue for get togethers with freinds.


Two single people or a couple can be accommodated in the heritage West Studio which is part of the Assistant Lighthouse Keeper's Cottage. Fully self contained, the West Studio has electric heating, a King Size bed and Lighthouse views throughout. Two night minimum stays.


Couples can be accommodated in the modern North Studio for overnight stays. This bright studio is self contained, has electric heating, and a private and peaceful garden courtyard.


The Lightstation also has a delightful cafe on site which is open daily. Relax over a great coffee and homemade scones, soaking up the views. The cafe is located in the original Assistant Lighthouse Keeper's cottage, right in front of the lighthouse.
