You will love it here. 500 m to town centre and 200m to beach track. Renovated June 2023. This original three bedroom plus sunroom cottage has just been renovated and refurbed. Homes like this are what Byron Bay is all about! Contemporary flair and classic charm has created the idyllic beach environment in this fully air conditioned home. Stained glass and leadlight feature windows with polished timber floors embellish a creative and serene ambience in light filled interiors. A large rear deck overlooks the fully fenced and private yard with lush lawns that is ideal for families and bar b ques. You will not believe the beautiful bathrooms as well as the outdoor hot and cold showers that are situated at the front and rear of the property. Walk to all attractions from here.
LOCATION
This original cottage is located on Shirley Street and backs onto the quiet charm of Shirley lane. It is one of the most convenient positions in Byron Bay and is sometimes overlooked as being one of the closest streets to the beach in all Byron Bay. A 200 metre stroll through coastal forest brings you to a less popular section of our beautiful north facing beach where if you walk west towards Mt Warning you enjoy miles of serenity and tranquility. Walk east towards the cape and main beach is about 400 metres. A perfect walk for breakfast in town or walk a little further to Clarkes Beach and the Beach Cafe for Australia's ultimate breakfast location. Then just keep walking and swimming - all the way to the Cape. What more can I say - " You will love it here " " What a life! "
THE VIBE
Byron is a buzzin' . All year round. The markets, the shops, the creativity, the restaurants and pubs and the awesome live music scene. Music is everywhere. Art is everywhere. And it is all inspired by one of the most sensational landscapes in the world.

This place has that unique boho vibe and provided plenty of room for our family to enjoy. It’s very convenient to town and the beaches. Communication was great!
A superb house a short walk from town via beach or charming bike track. Comfortable, well equipped and perfect for a family. Thank you to the owners for your hospitality and making us feel so welcome
House had everything we needed and was clean and homely. Great location and only a short walk into town. Host was very communicative even though he was in Europe. Loved our stay and would book again. Great for families.
Easy walk to the beach, shops and bars (tho the street is busy and hard to cross against traffic at times).House has a lovely beach vibe with a wonderful back deck and small lawn.
We had a great stay in Byron Bay, the house was as advertised. Great location, very clean and Peter the manager was kind and accommodating. Definitely would stay here again.
Lovely comfortable cottage - fully equipped and clean and easy walking distance into shops and main beach. Having back garden was great for bbqs- Shirley street is busy fortunately traffic dies down overnight so didn’t affect sleep. Parking in lane off Shirley lane easy- hosts great communication.
The property was all that we wanted comfortable, clean and located close to town. Our host Peter communicated clearly with us providing concise and clear instructions on all relevant aspects of the property. We will certainly consider returning should we visit Byron Bay in the future.
Great long weekend in this beautiful quirky house. Beach and town centre within an easy walk. Byron was very wet and windy, but we were comfortable indoors. Loved the stained glass windows in the property.

This is a dog friendly property…. But on application for consideration first as we have special requirements.
The house was great, spacious enough for a family of 5 (3 grown kids), awesome location, with Byron at your fingertips.
We all loved our stay & will be back

And most welcome to come back they are!
Best guests!
Great property in all aspects - spotless and clean, comfy beds, and thoughtful amenities (cooking oil, decent kitchen knives, house and area info). Loved the location - 5 mins to beach, 5 mins to town. Buddy our labradoodle enjoyed the stay as much as us - especially the off leash dog beach. Peter was always helpful and communicated in a courteous and welcoming manner. The outdoor shower was used by all. We can’t wait to return. Thank you.

We are happy with those ticks ! Thank you , you are so welcome anytime.
We love our Summer holidays in Byron and like to try different homes and locations to stay. We loved this classic ‘old school’ Byron beach house because;
1. We can take our dog ❤️
2. So close to town, beach, walk everywhere
3. The back deck and bbq area was fab👌
4. The outdoor hot/cold shower ☺️
5. Good ol’fashioned sprinkler that provided hours of entertaining for the dog & teens!
6. As the kids get older we spend more time eating out and exploring so like to spend a little less on accom. We find this place very well priced in comparison.
7. Peter was very welcoming and on hand for anything needed. Thank you Peter!

About the host
Hosted by Peter Jackson
My wife Jen and I had the good fortune to grow up in this beautiful area. We love it! The beaches, the surf, the hills, the people, and the homes. Outdoor, active and social living is our passion.
Why they chose this property
This home is so close to the Beach. And it is a few minutes walk to town. It is on the busy Shirley Street and so is most of Byrons holiday accommodations. Not many of them have a big yard and a garden to yourself anymore. It is a ideal holiday accom where you will not have to drive... to the beach or the restaurants and cafe scene.
What makes this property unique
We relish the classic old homes and have a passion for restoring them whilst maintaining the old school charm of the era. Come inside and see for yourself. It has been evolving in our possession for 20 near years now. It is the best it has ever been. We love it!
