"The Hideaway", a handcrafted beach shack with modernist sensibilities.

If you are looking for a holiday house of original and rustic character nestled amongst the trees, backing onto bush, "The Hideaway" is for you. The house was built in the 1970's by an architect and features a timber ceiling and floors in the main room, with an open fire place. The Japanese inspired design divides the 2 minor bedrooms from the main room with sliding doors that open up during the day. The main bedroom and living room flow out to the back deck, for outdoor eating and relaxing. With 2 bathrooms and three bedrooms, the house comfortably sleeps up to 4 guests. The kitchen is well appointed with good quality cooking utensils, and there is plenty of space to store your food in the pantry.

The open fire place adds character and warmth. A few tips for guests who are not familiar with open fires, are to start with several rolled up sheets of newspaper, some fire lighters, and small sticks. Build the fire slowly, stacking wood to ensure air flow. Set the fire to the back of the fire place to avoid it from smoking. Once alight, it will really add to the rustic experience. You can always look up YouTube if you need further help!

Please note, If you are looking for an "upmarket" house with bling, this is not the house for you. It appeals to guests who like an earthy and character filled house. Also, please be aware that during spring, the gum trees drop pollen, which may cause allergies, in which case you can take an anti-histamine purchased form the Bawley Point chemist.

The house is in walking distance to three divine beaches. Grab a coffee from Flo's coffee van, south of Gannet Beach, buy the best sour dough bread from Lagom Bakery (next to the fish shop) at Burrill Lake. Ride your Mountain Bike on the Ulladulla MTB track and grab a pie for Hayden's pies on your way home. Take the kids or do some laps/gym at the Aquatic Centre at Bateman's Bay. Walk along the beaches or find a track in the National Park.
