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.

Quiet location close within walking distance to surf beaches, places of interest and other amenities. Wendy has provided a very clean modern Studio unit. The exterior surrounds are well maintained too which all made our stay very enjoyable and relaxing.

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!!

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!

This a compact but spacious studio. Its key feature is the glorious outlook onto Painkalac Creek. This view out to the water, visible from the veranda and inside the studio, is deeply soothing and peaceful. We fell in love with an egret that visited on occasion. At one point we needed to contact the host of the property and her response was timely and helpful. We hope to return.

When we arrived the utensils in the draw, the cups and bathroom mirror were dirty & there was a little bit of sand in the carpet. The bed was hard and uncomfortable to sleep on. The music at the pub close by was so loud on the Friday night that we were unable to sleep until after midnight and we had to be up at 6:30. Overall it wasn't a pleasant experience.

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!

Some restful time out with my 17 yr who is in yr 12. A beautiful location with a view of the river both within the studio and sitting on the decking. Comfortable space for two set up with everything we needed. The location tucked away from the main highway yet close enough for walks to the inlet, along the river and for a coffee. This is our second visit. We will book again.

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.

We enjoyed the stay very much. It was very clean, the owner was uncomplicated. Morning run along the beach, nice breakfast café close by. Large front facing windows give a beautiful view over the water (not sure what type of waterway it is, but it really is as nice as in the photos.

I stayed here for a night before going down the Great Ocean Road. The studio was very clean and comfortable and it is in a peaceful and quiet location on the creek. The studio was well equipped for a short stay and owner Wendy was helpful for accessing the property. The lighthouse up the road was a great highlight nearby. Thank you!

The location is perfect - in a quiet spot by the river, yet just a few minutes walk to the cafes and not much further to the beach. The studio was a reasonable size and was comfortable and well equipped. There were a few small maintenance issues (the screen door was very stiff and the tv remote appeared to be inoperative) ... and the standard of cleaning was quite poor in places.

One of the best appointed stats we have ever had. Everything needed in the kitchen and bathroom. Comfortable bed, quiet with lovely view over the creek. More comfy chairs in the verandah would top it off.
