Seacroft Estate

Just love the communal kitchen and dining rooms and it’s kept the “old time” feeling . Fabulous pricing .

Great place easy to check in and really good for a quick and quiet visit

Beautiful well presented property with well maintained historical furniture that feels like you’ve stepped back in time, beautiful views of the mountains and ocean owners are helpful and friendly

Power cut couple of times, and no clean water

Joanne the host was friendly and helpful, and the bell tent was a novelty with stunning views of the beach and coastline. The highlight for me was the highland cows on the property, black and brown in colour with their massive horns and was lucky to be able feed them. Seacroft Estate is a great value for money accommodation option, along the Great Ocean Road, and only 15mins from Apollo Bay, where cafe and restaurants are plentiful.

I loved it! Though your mileage may vary.

Remote location.about 15 mins drive from o Apollo bay ( nearest shops) but a, lovely outlook and cheap as chips .shared facilities were good .great kitchen etc .a tv would have been appreciated in the communal areas.would definitely stay here again next time I'm riding the gor

Beautiful views, pastoral setting, friendly, bohemian vibe. Reminded me of my hippie youth.

Shared kitchen, dining and bathroom facilities were nice and clean

Very clean. Tranquil place. Highly recommended (and a much better alternative to camping - at about the same cost .. !)

Good place to stop by on the great ocean road. Lovely farm and views of the sea from the property. The shared kitchen was well equipped and dining room/lounge were large enough to accommodate guests. Room did get cold but a heater was provided and the beds were very comfy. Shared bathrooms were clean.

Amazing amazing accomodation! So unique and in such a beautiful spot, cute little coffee bench that overlooks the alpacas and highland cows! Also loved the big fully equipped kitchen!!

Get your carpenters to add more cross bracing to the structure supporting the room mosquitos were eating us alive , no room in the bedroom to bring our luggage didn’t feel comfortable at all the view is five star hand rails were missing long walk to toilet kitchen Don’t think the structure and conditions would be compliant felt like we staying in a makeshift building never experienced any thing such before my partner was very disappointed we paid any money for this place even though sheets and towels were supplied sorry to tell you it may help you to prevent a disaster in the near future , all the best with what you are serving up !

Quiet and cheap place to stay if you don’t mind shared bathroom facilities

We stayed in the studio and it was fantastic, the bed was divine, we had our own private deck with chairs table and banana lounges. The only down side is the kitchenette really had no accessories for cooking. Also the fridge was not cold at all so our drinks didn’t get cold. Otherwise a wonderful stay, loved the automatic ground coffee machine

Great value and clean

Seacroft was absolutely lovely! I stayed in the treehouse and enjoyed a magical view of the oceanside and farm animals. It was quiet and easily accessible. Can't recommend enough!

The property location was a stunning setting. However, lack of signage showing where you were allowed to park, where the kitchen was and the names of the areas in the peoperty were very lacking. A bath mat would have been nice or even a mop so we could at least clean up after we had a shower. This is more of a hostel setting and whilst it is not the owners fault, the night we stayed, guests arrived very late and proceeded to be very noisy not respecting other guests sleeping. Being an old building, the walls are very thin and the noise travels even when conversing inside your room. Apart from all this, the peoperty is in a stunning location with great views, however it lacks personal communication and requires a bit of care.

The view from my room was wonderfull, and the property is located conveniently between Lorne and Apollo Bay. Unfortunately, that is where the good things end. The treehouse room that I stayed in was a windowless box barely large enough to fit a double bed - which wasn’t the end of the world considering the large communal areas. But the room was stiflingly hot with the door closed, and leaving the door open resulted in hundreds of mosquitoes filling the room. I wound up leaving the room at midnight to sleep on the couch in the common room. I would definitely not recommend spending $200 if there are any other available rooms.

For the price paid, I expect more than a Hostel experience of shared facilities. Kitchen area is great. Toilet/shower block is a refrigerated portable and water can not be used by two people at once. I could not get hot water to shower while someone else was showering. The room was dirty with cobwebs around windows, doors and the light on the ceiling. It also wasn’t big enough to swing a cat in! Pre-information for access to room and facilities was good, but no mention about parking which made knowing where to park confusing when the stone area was completely full. You had to find a map to see what areas could be parked in, which included a grass area that had no signage. I would happily stay here if it was a cheap hostel comparative price (no more than $100), but not for anything more than that!
