About this property

Barnacle - a beautiful holiday house in the stunning location of Walkerville

Nestled at the end of a Court, on a generous size block, is Barnacle. A taste of retro and beach coastal, the house is surrounded by native trees and bush, with a large grassed area, perfect for a ball game. A reasonable walk to the beach or a quick drive.
Barnacle offers open plan living, with 2 bedrooms and a modern bathroom.
Birds at your back door, the Barnacle is close to everything South Gippsland has to offer. Located close to the stunning Walkerville beach, perfect for swimming, kayaking, SUP, and fishing, as well as Wilsons Promontory, wineries, galleries and cafes within the local towns.

Clean and tidy bungalow
The property was clean and tidy. Quiet cul-de-sac in a lovely location. Lots of native birds visit the garden. My only suggestion to other guests would be to bring your own pillows if you need something supportive.

Convenient location close to Wilsons Prom
The house was in a convenient location to access South Gippsland and Wilsons Prom. Some areas of the home needed a bit of a clean - the coffee machine has sediments in the water tank and dried milk on the milk frother, dining table had not been wiped down. My friend had sensitive skin and felt itchy on one of the beds, but others including myself were fine. The host was very responsive and receptive to feedback, so I’m sure these issues will be rectified in future.Other points to note - you need to throw away the rubbish at the Fish Creek tip as there’s no facility to use the rubbish bin. BYO internet.

Walkerville Getaway
Had a great time staying here for 3 nights! Clean property, lots of space for parking and had all the listed amenities. Our host had communication on point and was always prompt with replies. Walkerville beach was close by, beautiful view. Walkerville does not have many shops nearby - had to travel to near towns to get groceries and fuel. Next time will buy groceries on the way!

A lovely, simple, clean retreat
This was a simple and clean property with all the essentials including cozy blankets for those chilly mornings. It was lovely to sit out in the backyard to watch the lorikeets. Walkerville foreshore was a short drive away for exploring the rocks.

Off the grid
Love the property. Had a great time. If you looking for a place to get away from all the hassle of the city. This place is the one to go to. Being off the grid with no reception only made the stay more enjoyable. Will be back soon for another destress weekend.

Lovely weekend getaway
Couldn't ask for anything more! Janine was a great host. The place had all that we needed for a little getaway out of the city. It was in a great location and not to bad of a drive from the Prom. The heater was even put on before our arrival which was very thoughtful :). It would be great to stay there again. Thanks a bunch!

Breezy easy property that made us feel at home and on holiday at the same time.
Very easy experience, comfortable, convenient to beaches and local towns of interest, and easy day trip to the Prom. Loved the house, grounds, and beaches. Very child friendly beach at Walkerville and plenty to keep everyone interested.
