About this property

The Eagle's Nest: stunning views, close to beach

St Clair is a bustling beachside suburb of Dunedin with a selection of beautiful cafes and restaurants located along the St Clair Esplanade. The beach is rated as one of New Zealand's best for surfing and offers something for anyone with an affinity for the ocean.

The Eagle's Nest is within walking distance of the beachfront, just a 10-minute drive from the Octagon (Dunedin city centre), 10 minutes from Forsyth Barr Stadium, and in close proximity to St Clair Golf Course and Chisolm Links Golf Course near St Kilda Beach.

The famous wildlife attractions of the Otago Peninsula are close by with yellow-eyed penguins, albatross, sea lions, seals and bountiful birdlife within easy reach.

The Eagle's Nest is a warm and comfortable open-plan beach house that offers space for entertaining and relaxing. Heated by a wood burner and heat pump, you'll always be toasty as you take in the sweeping vista from the lounge, master bedroom and sunroom.

Furnished in a fresh and contemporary style, The Eagle's Nest is well-suited to couples looking for a spacious stay right through to families wanting to sprawl out.

The modern kitchen has everything you'll need to enjoy your stay and the all-new bathroom is warm and cosy. The house also features a fully equipped laundry and second toilet.

We pride ourselves in our attention to detail, cleanliness and those nice touches that make your stay special.

Eagles Nest was just great. House and facilities were perfect. Lovely and clean facilities. Great location with amazing views. Enjoyed lighting the fire on our last night and enjoying the view as the sun went down. And watching the surfers in the morning with a coffee from the front bedroom. Lovely living space and really handy laundry facilities. Communication was quick and so easy. Thanks so much.
