LOCATION
Athelstane House is a 90 minute drive from Melbourne via the Geelong Freeway and Bellarine Highway.

DETAILS
"The Age Good Food Guide 2003 says" Set in a grand 1860's guesthouse a short saunter from the beach, this friendly bistro successfully captures the seaside holiday mood. With its bright lemon walls, welcoming staff and breezy atmosphere, Athelstane is comfortable rather than slick, and the food reflects this. Dishes are nicely presented and the menu is quite varied, from the traditional pork with grilled aple to the more contemporary squid ink pasta. 14/20Recommended by:

Built in 1860, Athelstane House is Queenscliff's oldest operating guesthouse.
In 1999 a complete interior renovation added many contemporary luxuries but the building still maintains its historic exterior and old world ambience and charm.
