Rooms with Kitchen

Villas have a private entrance, air conditioning, a dishwasher, an oven, and a coffee machine. Bathrooms include a walk-in shower, free toiletries, and a kettle. Some units offer a terrace or inner courtyard views. Family rooms are available, and the property has facilities for disabled guests, including a lower bathroom sink, raised toilet, grab rails, and visual aids (Braille and tactile signs). Guest reviews mention comfortable beds, vintage decor with modern appliances, and a large TV. Note: the single bed in the third bedroom is small, and the shower screen can leave water on the floor near the toilet.

On-Site Cafe

The Duck Duck Goose cafe serves Australian cuisine with vegetarian, vegan, and dairy-free options. A continental and vegetarian breakfast is available, including warm dishes, fresh pastries, and fruits. Guests have ordered shared platters, nachos, burgers, and fish and chips. Some reviews note basic food and wait times, while others praise the generous portions and friendly staff. There are indoor and outdoor tables.

Maze and Gardens

The property includes a large maze, gardens with a lake, and resident peacocks and hens. A playground, recycled sculptures, and vintage vehicles are on site. Guests can use the BBQ facilities, outdoor fireplace, and picnic area. Reviews highlight the maze as fun for all ages and the gardens as peaceful. Note: some visitors have expressed concern about the condition of birds in cages.

Close to Geelong

Barrabool Maze Estate is in Ceres, 12 km from South Geelong Station and 13 km from Geelong Train Station. North Geelong Train Station is 14 km away, and Avalon Airport is 31 km. The property feels secluded but is a short drive from Geelong's centre. Public transport links are available via nearby stations.

Services for Guests

The estate offers free private parking and a barbecue area. Guests can check in privately and receive an invoice. The staff provide early check-ins and leave breakfast items (milk, butter, pastries) in the villa. The property is family-friendly and wheelchair accessible.

“The estate cultivates a deeply peaceful countryside atmosphere, felt from the moment you arrive. Cottages blend a charming vintage aesthetic with updated comforts, ensuring a cozy stay. Exploring the grounds, particularly the maze, offers a delightful diversion for families and adults alike, complemented by a pleasant on-site café.”
