A lovely B&B situated within a winery. Rooms are basic with ensuite (nothing to write home about), but the vines right outside your door are stunning. In fact the whole property is somewhat breathtaking. Complete with 2 gorgeous gargoyles watching the entrance. The owners Dot and David are lovely. Very accommodating without being intrusive. And Dot puts on the best... More

What a fabulous place to get away from it all, with a terrific view across the vineyard to the rolling hills. We stayed one night, but actually wanted to stay much longer if that had been possible. The B&B was very well set up and our room was really comfortable. Dot took care of our every need and we especially... More

Super personal service, undisturbed sleep, the opportunity to taste wines from vines planted by the owners and made by themselves (and highly rated by James Halliday) and what is likely to be the best breakfast of your holiday. How Dot manages to run a cellar door, greet visitors and insist on making her own bread for breakfast I don't know-... More

We stayed at Heytesbury Ridge on two separate occasions, choosing to return since the first night had been so enjoyable. We found the owners to be excellent hosts, generous and attentive and clearly wanting us to enjoy our stay. The vineyard is pretty, with fabulous views, and very peaceful. The rooms are spotless, with good quality bathrooms and there is... More

If you want paper thin walls, spiders in the bathroom, and hosts that make you feel uncomfortable and unwelcome, then this is your place. I don't get all the other reviews on this site. It's been some time since we stayed at this B&B and to this date, we have bad memories. The hosts may be nice people, but I... More

We chose to stay at Heytesbury Ridge since we were looking for (1) a location near the Great Ocean Road and (2) an opportunity to experience a local vineyard/winery. The B&B has two ensuite rooms, in a separate "wing" of the house -- so you have some privacy. The room was very comfortably furnished, and there is a shared living... More

This is a very nice place. The bedroom was gorgeous, the bed, sumptuous. I ate a lot of their homebaked chocolate-chip cookies while I was there! Their Shiraz was one of my favorites during my entire trip. I would certainly return! More

I cannot say enough positive things about Heytesbury Ridge! My wife & I stayed here for one evening along The Great Ocean Road. Dot and David gave us such a warm welcome upon our arrival. We had a great time wine tasting in their cellar door! Our room was spacious and very romantic, with a large ensuite bathroom. Dot was... More

How on earth anyone could not give this place five stars is beyond me. Everything about this bed and breakfast is just fantastic, from the hosts Dot and Dave, to the views outside our bedroom window plus the wine tasting, breakfast, comfy bed and yes, Wi-Fi. We arrived at 5pm and even though the winery closed at 5, Dot still... More

The owners had plenty of advice for all the scenic areas like the the Twelve Apostles and Port Fairy. We were made to feel welcome right from the get go. The homemade bread and cereal was an added benefit to what was already excellent service. The wine was great and the view from our room stunning.. This was just what... More
