About this property

The Light House Cottage

Welcome to The Light House.

The Light House is the closest house to the working Burnett Heads Light house.
Views of the ocean or harbour from every window in the house.
Discover the pristine coastline of Burnett Heads and Mon Repos, with intriguing turtles, whales and the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef.

This well-maintained home is the typical Queenslander with closed in verandahs (sleep-outs), and a large, central lounge.

It was the old pilot stations' house, moved with logs to this prime location back in the 30's.

There are 4 bedrooms and a 2-way bathroom, with a claw-foot bath and seperate shower. The toilet is separate.

The 2 queen, and 2 single beds are very comfortable, as is the leather lounge suite.

Ceiling fans are throughout, and sea breezes are too pleasant to bother with air-con.

The fully fenced yard is large enough to park your boat and car, and keep your dog happy and secure.

Outdoor pets welcome and pets may sleep in the laundry at night.

Lockable single shed.

Great fishing and swimming from the rock walls and private beach.

Excellent boating and fishing in river or out to the reef.

A short 700m walk to local Supermarket, shops, PO, pub and club.

Playgrounds and skate bowl in adjacent parks for the kids.

We love staying here with our two disabled adults. (There are a few steps)The parks, walkways and shops, hotel, newsagent and eateries nearby gave us plenty of wheelchair walking options as well as the games and books provided in the house. Lovely quiet spot with a drive to Bargara ,Mon repo, Elliot Heads and Bundy free zoo and shops.

We were lucky to have noticed that sheets and towels were not supplied, so we’re able to supply our own. However? We ‘adults’ laughed when the kids realised there was no wifi on the property. Would have preferred to have been notified of this prior to arrival. But otherwise, the location, the house, the ease of arrival and departure was smooth. We would totally have this on our list for next time
