We discovered this nice museum when we stayed for the 1st time in the south western Victorian country town of Hamilton. We met owner Glen Campe at his museum where he explained that everything on display were part of his private collection. He set up the museum after 30+ years of operating his own coach-line which operated throughout Australia. This diverse collection which included many small non car-related items was all very interesting. We’re glad we discovered this wonderful museum.

This fabulous 60’s Diner owned by Paul & Christine Freestone simply is superb. From the peaceful seaside location to the fabulously decorated building, its interior and the superb American food using local fresh produce, you will not be dissapointed. The Great Ocean Road is one of Australia’s premiere driving holidays and Freestone’s Diner is located along that magnificent piece of coastline just 50km SW of Geelong (only 120km SW of Melbourne). Unfortunately this wonderful place no longer operates but a new diner called the Red Lion located at Kilmore (Victoria) is now open. The hotel was built in 1850 and the good news is the Freestone’s Diner fit out is…

This 60’s Diner at Airey’s Inlet in Victoria is spectacular to say the least and much more than just a diner (in fact it has 2 diners). Everything about the place was done very well from the food to the service, artifacts, car collection, scenic setting, automotive paraphernalia & atmosphere. Then there is the collectibles shop next door that is like nothing you’ve ever seen with many things you’ve never seen before. A must for those doing a trip along the Great Ocean Road.
