The room was tidy. I loved the location and how peaceful it was until night time - see below The only downer were the people staying next to me were so noisy and loud until 11pm. I am pleased I only stayed 1 night. The walls are thin and I could hear everything!! That`s the reason for 3 stars

We only stayed one night at Seacroft, so can’t comment much on facilities but for somewhere to rest your head along the Great Ocean Road you couldn’t ask for much more - stunning views right outside your door, clean rooms and incredibly comfy beds plus decently good self serve tea and coffee. We loved our stay !!

Room is in very poor conditions, super soft matress, and pillows, only one pillow each bed. Sound proof is zero, you need to make it more clear guests need to bring their own shampoo and body wash, if the closest grocery store is 18km away

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.

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.
