About this property
Aurora Grove—A Familly Retreat at Caves Beach
A 15-minute stroll from Caves Beach's sandy shoreline, this family-friendly home exudes effortless coastal living. Check out the iconic network of sea caves, grab a bite at local favourite, Ocean Soul Espresso—just down the road, and stretch your legs on the scenic walking track to Pinny Beach in Wallarah National Park. This home makes for an excellent group getaway. It includes alfresco dining with a BBQ, a games room and a kid-approved garden with a cubby house and play equipment.
With its combination of indoor and outdoor spaces, this home is all about soaking up the relaxed Lake Macquarie lifestyle. Its classic brick façade opens to reveal light-filled and modern interiors, extending to the backyard and alfresco dining area.
The kitchen is designed around a central island and comes fully equipped for your holiday catering. Take things slow around the breakfast bar or come together for a shared meal around the dining table. Relax in the main living area with a comfy sofa and wall-mounted TV or make use of the dedicated workspace for those combining business and leisure stays. A second entertainment and games room includes a foosball table and plenty of kids’ toys.
Each of the bedrooms have been designed for a good night’s sleep with ceiling fans, heating and cooling. Two of the bedrooms offer queen-sized beds, set with side tables and reading lights. The third bedroom comes with a combination bunk bed, including a double on the bottom and single above. The bathroom is a stylish space to refresh with both a bathtub and shower, while a separate powder room and laundry facilities add to your everyday convenience.
Parking is available on the driveway for two cars. Travelling with an infant? A travel cot and highchair can be provided on request.
During your stay, you and your group will have the entire house to yourselves. Please make yourselves at home!
The coastal suburb of Caves Beach lies on the NSW Central Coast, just under two hours’ drive north of Sydney. It’s named for its network of sea caves at the southern end of the beach, which are popular for exploring at low tide. Start the day with a coffee from Boffee Café, sit down to a languid lunch at Caves Coastal Bar & Bungalows and enjoy a sweet treat from Caves Beach Gelato. Nearby you can check out the historic mining village of Catherine Hill Bay, hike through the bushland of Wallarah National Park or play a round of golf at Belmont Golf Club.
Due to local regulations, we can happily host you for up to 90 nights. Any bookings that exceed this duration will be cancelled by Vrbo.
