Elephant Bridge Hotel
Elephant Bridge Hotel is one of Victoria's oldest inns (circa 1842).
An historic bluestone establishment nestled in a rural landscape alongside Mount Emu Creek, is where bullock wagons once crossed and coaches rested between Geelong, and the south-west coastal ports of Port Fairy and Portland, and the gold diggings at Ballarat.
This charming hotel fuses its quintessential colonial past with boutique-style accommodation and sublime modern comforts.
