My wife and i stayed for three days. The owners reply to every request immediately. The service is first class and the presentation of breakfast is the best we have experience in all our years of traveling. We stopped in a one bedroom spa apartment which had plenty of room for us to sit and relax at the end of... More

My husband and I have just returned home from a 3 night stay! We originally booked for the B & B, but upon arrival were upgraded to 1 bedroom spa apartment. The accommodation and surroundings were fantastic, the view to die for and the birds were gorgeous. Doug and Karen were extremely welcoming and available. We had continental breakfast each... More

My partner and I stayed here for two nights as part of our tour of the Great Ocean Road. The flats are in a residential area of Lorne and well away from the main street, thankfully, so we could escape the touristy bars and surf shops. The owners were very friendly and seemed happy to help. Our room was a... More

We stayed in the ground floor B&B (not the upstairs luxury rooms) and were pleasantly surprised at how nice it was. Even a peep of the sea.Very friendly hosts - told us all the places to go in the area. Very quiet location - a little away from the main centre of town. Lovely breakfast.

My girlfriend and I broke journey in Lorne on our GoR trip from Adelaide to Melbourne. Lorne is a beautiful little town and Chatby Lane apts helped us discover that. They are clean, the room for two was a good size and they are tucked away in a cute residential spot, so pin drop silence at night, no cars driving... More

We used this B&B for one night and choose the B&B room on the ground floor. It was well presented and furnished providing all we required. Very clean with plenty of blankets and towels. A standard continental breakfast was supplied and delivered to the room. More than enough to start the day on. Friendly hosts who assisted with all our... More

Room was very basic, queen size bed, nothing flash. Spa bath, but spas are over-rated without a view. On bottom level, so no privacy. Breakfast basic but enjoyable enough. Had more fun staying elsewhere. A little bit far out of town, unless you drive, or feel like walking. Nothing bad, just nothing special.

We picked this property because of its excellent reviews on tripadvisor and were not disappointed. We stayed in the B&B room (motel style) and had an extremely peaceful night's sleep. The room suited us fine for our one night stay and it was spotlessly clean with extra towels and blankets etc. Continental breakfast was included in our rate which saved... More

We've stayed here twice now, once at the fully apartment, and once at the studio apartment. The hosts (Doug and Karen) are friendly and lovely, the place is spotless and the kitchen has all you need. The full apartment is amazing with double spa and a great kitchen, the studio is smaller and simpler but great for 2 or so... More

I had a great stay at Chatby Lane in Lorne over New Years. The main issue was the price was quite high over that period but I'm sure it is like that with most accommodation over New Years. Doug and Karen were very friendly and accommodating. The rooms were very clean and the double spa was huge. I did expect... More
