Feel the serenity!
Blairgowrie is such a wonderful place on the peninsula. The safety and tranquillity of the front beach is only 250m away and the magnificent ocean coast line is only a 10-15 minute walk away. You can walk through the National Park and enjoy the surf, or experience the rock pools at low tide. Imagine sunset walks along the beach only minutes from your door. You can enjoy cosmopolitan Sorrento, or the quieter Blairgowrie which has all that you need including a supermarket, deli, bottle shop, newsagent and coffee shops. Sorrento is only 3km away where you can enjoy more coffee shops, restaurants and shops.

This little cottage was an ideal get away for our family and dogs. It was well appointed with an huge fenced backyard and about 300 metres from a dog friendly beach.
Fantastic location, beach and shops within walking distance. We had children with us so there was plenty of space and two living areas was a bonus. Communication with host was excellent.
Great house for one or two families, great value and good position. One toilet and small kitchen. Lovely back deck and yard to relax in. Good for dogs. Ducted heating and fire nice in winter. Enjoyed our stay.
We had a wonderful family holiday in Blairgowrie at Rochelle’s house. It was well located, a short walk to the beach, with lovely outdoor spaces where we enjoyed meals as a family. It was well equiped with everything we needed for our holiday.
The house was perfect with lots of games for the kids both inside and out and had everything you need for an easy stress free stay.
Loved it so much our kids have asked to go back!
