Enjoy the newly opened lighthouse, bush, beach and cliff top walks, paddle on the river, horse riding and mountain biking at your fingertips. Its a beautiful part of nature here and such a great part of the Great Ocean Rd. Nearby is the town of Lorne famous for its waterfalls and cafe strip.

Why this retreat was built and how to get there.

Owner/manager of A River Bed, Wendy, holidayed in the area as a child and,
loving the memories, moved here in 1997. While working in the Tourism/Accommodation industry for many years, saw a need
for modern self contained 'couple' accommodation. So created A River Bed, studio for 2.

Directions:

Take the Princes Highway from Melbourne, through Geelong and follow the signs to the Great Ocean Road. Drive through Anglesea and continue on to Aireys Inlet. Aireys is a tranquil seaside resort on the beautiful southern coast of Victoria.
When you enter the town of Aireys Inlet, drive past the shops on the left and the hotel on the right. Down the hill and, at the bottom, turn right into Bambra Road then left into River Road, left again into River Reserve Road. Second on the left, you'll see your car space at the front of the studio.

Location and what's nearby

A River Bed is close to Lorne, Anglesea, Torquay and the Otways but right on the Great Ocean Road and Surfcoast. Its so handy for day trips and a perfect base for your holiday or simply a weekend or overnight getaway.

Peaceful location

Such a great location with so many walking options - beaches, lighthouse and local eateries. I enjoyed overlooking the creek opposite for its birdlife and occasional kayaker. The property was well presented and clean with basic cooking facilities. I spent a few days here on my own and felt very safe and comfortable. I’d be happy to stay here again to enjoy this beautiful area.

Stunning Peaceful Location

We loved the quiet peaceful location right on the lake. The apartment was comfortable, however a little sparsely set up e.g. no shampoo or facial tissues. Otherwise, a really gorgeous place to stay!

Lovely quiet location by the river. Comfortable bed, lots of hot water, well equipped. There was an issue with cleanliness. A dirty towel was left in the bathroom and the kitchen hadn’t been cleaned properly but the manager was very good and we reached a solution.

Short and sweet

My partner and I wanted a get away and could not have found a more cosy and sweet place to stay, from the understanding of the host to the cleanliness of the studio and easy to follow instructions we cannot recommend this place more. On a quiet stretch of road next to a lovely river, it was the perfect place to base ourselves as we travelled around the area!!

A River Bed Studio - everything that's promised!

We found 'A River Bed Studio' spacious, comfortable and clean. The cooking facilities are perhaps best suited to couples who wish to eat out some of the time. The Studio is well-situated in a peaceful, appealing and convenient location within easy walking distance of the Aireys Inlet lighthouse precinct. As there are many great beach, clifftop and forest walks in the vicinity, we definitely hope to return.

A relaxing riverside retreat

A beautiful little studio on the banks of Painkalac Creek with picturesque river views from the big open windows, as well as the front porch. Situated in a wonderfully quiet location whilst still nearby to cafes, restaurants, and attractions such as Split Point Lighthouse and Great Ocean Road, and only a couple of hours drive from the CBD, it's the perfect weekend getaway for couples or singles looking for a relaxing escape from a busy metropolitan Melbourne!
