Lovely quiet getaway with beautiful views

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this property with its stunning views and daily visits from local wildlife (wallabies, saffron crested cockatoos, king parrots). It was disconcerting having no WiFi at first but we came to enjoy quietly browsing the books and playing the board games provided. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Fantastic house, photos undersell the reality, very spacious and plenty of room for our whole family. Wifi would be a good addition, however it was nice to be off grid for a while. Thanks for a lovely stay

Lovely spot

Lovely house with a wonderful aspect. Backs directly onto the bush. So quiet around. Very practical and comfortable. Only thing I would upgrade is the beds in the back room. I could feel the springs in my back. Overall a lovely stay. Thank you

3rd time and we have booked again!

We love Mouzel, third time and have already booked our 4th! We love the staff at Great Ocean Road Holidays, always accomodating and helpful. Mouzel is always spotless, so comfy, views you cannot beat, koalas in the trees, kangaroos in the backyard and kookaburras everywhere. We really look forward to our getaway here each year!!

Nature Abounds!

This is a quirky house but with ample living area but it's main attraction is the location. Away from the tourists. Tucked away on the hill where nature abounds!It is great for overseas tourists with regular visits from Cockies, parrots, a resident kookaburra, kolas in the trees and Kangaroos in the backyard complete with Joey and glow worms up the road. The balcony overlooking the trees with a glimpse of the beach where you can have your barbeque or quiet cup of tea. This was a great find!

Great place

I stayed at Mouzel for 3 nights with my parents visiting from overseas. We all loved the place. The short but steep walk to the beach was exactly what we needed after our meals. The surrounding nature is amazing. Very quiet and peaceful place. I would definitely go back.

Great Accomodation

Perfect piece of paradise, plenty of space to stretch out, glorious sunrises from the large windows and a really well equipped property. Kangaroo visitors, short (but steep!) walk to the beach. We WILL be back.

A great beach shack, with the beauty of both bush & beach. The wildlife is wonderful, koalas in the trees and kangaroos in the backyard, quite amazing!
