Elena and her staff put food and generosity in all their food. Fabulous eggs, salmon and the pear and ricotta muffins are sooo good.

Everything Else
Lorne is 2 hours along the Great Ocean Road from the Cottage. It is a village on the ocean and 5 minutes drive inland gets you to magnificent forest. At Lorne there is great art, food, surfing, walking, cycling, bush walks, coffee culture and occasionally still...sleepy hollow feeling. Worth a day trip or overnight stop. It's also a great midway point if you want to travel the Great Ocean Road which is spectacular and more.

Arts & Culture
I never liked museums because I thought they were 'dead' places. This one's not. Unique indigenous interactive 'Bunjilaka' will open your mind about the First Nation people of this great southern land. A changing feast is this museum. Another place is the Ian Potter Gallery at Federation Square in town which houses spectacular indigenous large scale art. It is a unique aesthetic. Another facility is Heide Art Park which has landscape and art exhibits through the year and great eating too. So many, I could go on and on!

Shopping
In Elwood I go to Leaf for organics and greens and flowers. To the Grumpy Swimmer for a good book. To Dandelion for fantastic higher end Vietnamese fusion restaurant dining. To Sunflower for vegan cafe grub. Homewares and crystals, Combi for raw organic cafe experience. There's lots in this village just 30 mins. walk from the Cottage.
