About this bed and breakfast
Chi Medicinal Farm is at the heart of the Great Ocean Road, surrounded by the rolling hills of Glenaire, only meters away from Castle Cove Lookout with breathtaking views to the roaring Southern Ocean. This magnificent setting allows you to take a moment to “Find your Chi” by indulging your senses and allowing you to take a long healthy breath.
Chi B&B was designed with unsurpassed comfort and luxury in mind. Our features include a Queen-sized pillow-top mattress dressed in high-quality linens, a high-definition flat-screen television with Foxtel programming and a private ensuite bathroom fitted with a luxurious rainfall shower. We also have a fully catered room service offering a bespoke Australian menu. Locally sourced, crafted with love.
At Chi B&B we aim to provide our visitors with a unique experience while focusing on attentive hospitality and unsurpassed comfort. If you are walking the Great Ocean Walk we are one of the only stops where you are only steps away from the track. Walk off, enjoy a great night sleep then walk back on towards the Twelve Apostles or Apollo Bay.
There is plenty to see and do around the area. After a gourmet breakfast, indulge in a relaxing massage, explore the beautiful Aire River West area, or venture out for a day trip to the local waterfalls of the Great Otway National Park, Cape Otway, or the world famous Twelve Apostles. The native flora and fauna abounds here, which is a great opportunity to see Black Cockatoos, Eastern Grey Kangaroos, Black Swamp Wallabies, sleepy koalas and waddling echidnas in their natural habitat. During the winter months you might be lucky to sight the whales during their winter migration.
Inspiring Views, unsurpassed comfort, a gourmet menu, wildlife galore and a centralized location on the Great Ocean Road. Chi Medicinal Farm is a must stay.

This was the perfect place half way through the great ocean walk! It was exactly what we needed. Peaceful location! Dinner and breakfast were amazing! Thank you Jo and Shane!

What a place! Jo and Shane have created a beautiful sanctuary to stay in amongst the rugged coastline and rolling hills. For us, it was the little touches... The rain shower after a long days walk, the smells of essential oils from the natural products Jo has created, the amazing restaurant-quality homemade dinners and delicious desserts... Relaxing with a movie in the evening or watching the weather roll in. We feel so refreshed and nurtured. Thank you to you both.

OK as a starting point for GOR.
Food reviews are overrated

My partner and I had a wonderful night stay. Shane was welcoming, and so helpful. We ordered room service and the food and presentation was delightful. My favourite part was the amazing smell in the room and Jo’s homemade products in the bathroom. Thank you! We can’t wait to visit again when we need some quite down-time away from the kids!

Jo and Shane made our stay very relaxing, comfortable and made us feel at home in middle of the beautiful GOR. They are there to welcome you, make you so feel so comfortable and relaxed right from the moment you step in their property. Amazing breakfasts and dinners (we had their home cooked meal one night), highly recommended. They also gave us recommendations to visit a couple of places nearby which was really helpful. We felt absolutely relaxed, recharged and rejuvenated in the 2 days we spent at Chi Medicinal Farm.

I had only one night stay here but can highly recommend this place for a stop over while on the great ocean road. Definately take up the offer to have dinner delivered to your room. It’s delicious. The rooms are comfty and well styled and smell amazing from the homemade organic skincare the owners make.

My husband and I stayed at the Chi Farm B&B in May 2018 for 2 nights. Perfect location if you are traveling along the Great Ocean Road! The space was immaculate. The location was tranquil. Jo & Shane prepared amazing meals for us which were prepared with fresh ingredients and products from their farm, as well as their neighbor's farm. I would definitely recommend this location to anyone traveling along the Great Ocean Road! Shane was so kind and helpful. The only downfall was that we were unable to meet Jo.

My husband and I stayed here for two nights to explore the Great Ocean Road. It was our first time staying at a bed and breakfast, because we usually like our own private self contained place.
Jodie, wow. Jodie is awesome. Upon meeting us, she made us feel so welcome. She immediately took us to the room, which she preheated, it was getting rather chilly outside. The room was comfy, large TV, a nice little corner table to eat and do whatever we needed to do on it, bathroom was amazing - especially the rainfall (?) waterfall(?) showerhead.
I read in previous reviews to make sure I get dinner at least once during my stay. No regrets, I'll die happy. Our food arrived exactly at 7pm as requested, husband enjoyed the beef and I the fish. OMG OMG OMG - DO NOT SKIMP OUT ON DINNER - IF SHE ASKS IF YOU WOULD LIKE DINNER, YOU SAY YES. We wolfed down the food like two starving kids, it was SO DELICIOUS! I wanted seconds, and immediately looked forward to our breakfast.
There is a great selection of movies saved onto foxtel, so don't worry, you are well entertained. We also took a walk to see their chickens and got to meet their sweet puppy. There are local kookaburras flying about, and at night we heard a koala grunting away. The bed was extremely comfortable. Let me say, Jodie's loveliness, her delicious home cooked meal, the shower, and the bed, sent me into dreamy dreamy land... I had the hardest time getting up in the morning, but knowing breakfast was arriving soon motivated me out of bed, and yes... breakfast was divine.
We met Shane on our last day, as he was away. JUST AS LOVELY AS JODIE!!!! We ended up being behind our travel schedule because we just kept chatting! Seriously, I will be back, and I am recommending this place to everyone I know. The location is quiet and peaceful, and within an easy driving distance to Cape Otway Lighthouse, a few place for easy bushwalks, the 12 Apostles and the other cool coastal look out places. Thank you Jodie and Shane!!!

Staying at Chi Farm was absolutely magical. Jo and Shane put so much effort into making our stay as comfortable and relaxing as possible, and they pour so much love into every single detail, from the interiors, decorations, to the food. Breakfast was wonderfully prepared with fresh produce from the farm and local sources - the pancakes are the best we've ever tasted, and the tortilla was very special too. Dinner was an absolute treat - do make sure you have dinner at least one night of your stay! Needless to say, we were absolutely spoilt by their hospitality.
The location of the farm is just off the hustle and bustle, and a perfect base for exploring Great Ocean Road. Shane was always helpful and gave us the best recommendation of visiting the Californian Red Woods nearby - we were so taken away by the calmness that descended upon us. It really takes you to another place and time.
We were incredibly sad to leave Jo, Shane and their gorgeous pup Mischa, but we are sure that we'll be back as soon as we can.

From start to finish our stay was amazing! The accommodation was divine and the food was delicious! The hosts were just so helpful and friendly it made for such a stress free experience. Highly recommended!!
