There is fast, free WiFi and two smart TVs. There are also board and card games, plus a few toys, jigsaws and books.

We have efficient split systems for heating and cooling upstairs and downstairs. Ceiling fans keep the upstairs bedrooms cool on summer nights, and large windows take advantage of sea breezes.

The two north-facing decks are perfect for BBQs and soaking up the sun, while the south-facing deck offers a cooler space to relax. There’s a huge backyard for the kids and pets, complete with a big trampoline, space for backyard cricket, and an outdoor shower for rinsing off after the beach.

PARKING

There is room in the carport for one car, but it only suits small cars. The driveway fits another two cars, and there is room on the grass for another two or three cars, depending on their size. It's free to park on the street with no time limits.

BABIES

There is a portacot, high chair, pram and bath available at the home.

PETS

Pets are welcome, and the backyard is fully fenced. Please keep them off the furniture and clean up after them in the yard.

1. BYO LINEN - All beds (apart from the sofa bed) have pillows and doonas with doona covers. You need to bring fitted sheets, flat sheets, and pillowcases. Also, don’t forget your beach towels, bathroom towels, and tea towels.

2. HIRE LINEN - We can arrange linen hire. As a guide, linen and towels for all the beds costs about $350 to hire, with an extra fee of $10 per bed for bed making. . Get in touch for a quote at least a week before your stay.
