About this property

Whitewash Cottage (the place to unwind & relax)

Centrally located in a quiet, leafy street in Huskisson, Whitewash Cottage is the perfect place to unwind and relax in comfort. Ideally set up and suited to accommodate 2 couples (or a couple with older children), the stylishly decorated property consists of the main cottage with an adjoining studio. Both contain large, spacious bedrooms with queen size beds and private bathrooms. If needed, there is also a futon lounge in the studio that converts to a double bed. Quality bed linen and bath towels are provided. The studio ensuite also contains full laundry facilities, with a new front loading washing machine.

Whitewash Cottage has been lovingly renovated and repainted inside and out, with polished whitewashed timber floors throughout. The open plan living, dining and kitchen area, lends itself to the relaxed beachside lifestyle. Outdoor entertaining can be accommodated on the front patio and paved area with pergola, or in the large undercover area between the main cottage and the studio, with a barbecue and outdoor setting provided.

(Pets are generally not allowed on the property., however individual requests will be considered.)

A Perfect Stay at Whitewash Cottage
We had such a wonderful time at Whitewash Cottage! The accommodation was spotless and incredibly comfortable, with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The location is just perfect – only minutes from the beach and the town center, making it so easy to explore. A special mention to our hosts for the thoughtful wine and snacks – such a lovely touch that made us feel so welcomed. We loved it so much that I’ve already rebooked for next year! Can’t wait to return. Highly recommend!

Gorgeous stay with everything you need
The house was fantastic & had everything we needed for our stay. The smaller studio was perfect for the kids & gave them their own space. Location was in a lovely quiet street, but only 5 mins from Huskisson village & the beach. Would recommend to anyone looking for a weekend away or a longer break.

Weekend away
Property was very well presented and had everything you could need regardless of your length of stay. It had a more homely/cozy vibe than a straight beach shack which was very welcome to travellers who were looking for more than just a roof over our heads. Having a bedroom/en-suite separate to the main building would provide an ideal setup for 2 couples or parents/adult children. Location was roughly midway between the town Centre and beach so each could be reached on foot if desired. Check-in was a breeze and communication from Claudia was clear and timely. Would recommend to anyone heading to Huskisson. Thanks Claudia

Great property
Cute property. Great location. Very clean. Well equipped- with those little things that you need when staying such as coffee plungers, cleaning products and plenty of tea towels. Good communication with host. Lots of nice little details in property. I reached out to the host just prior to coming down asking if there would be any Christmas decorations, as had children staying and Claudia kindly set up some Christmas decorations. Such a lovely and kind gesture to make our trip just that much more special.

worse place we ever stayed
We had the worst experience ever. We signed up for this place because it was advertised as having internet and a pool which it did not. It was a very old manufactured home that had a terrible oder. I couldn't even sleep in the bedroom because of the smell. When I asked for a refund and to get another place the ower said, "No". We had to pay for it anyway and go get another place.

We had a lovely stay at Whitewash Cottage. Would recommend.
Beautifully furnished, good for older families and the kitchen was well equipped kitchen, including for a change, sharp knives. The house is located in a quite street, but still close to the beach and shops. Would stay at this property again.

Lovely relaxing break!
Had a lovely stay at Whitewash. The cottage was well appointed, nicely furnished and cosy. It was a pleasure to come back to Whitewash in the late afternoon, after a day's beach activities, to enjoy the local wine and crackers left by Claudia. A great spot and very convenient for the rest of Huskisson.

I would recommend this Cottage to our Friends.
We enjoyed our stay at White Wash Cottage, it was very clean & welcoming, the weather wasn’t very kind to us but that can’t be helped, the only thing we really would have appreciated would have been a clotheshoist, to dry wet towels & small things. The only other problem was, my Husband had to clean BBQ, before we would use it. We found Claudia very pleasent, & had left us wine, biscuits & dip for our arrival. Thank your Denese

Hidden Gem
Whitewash Cottage is quite a find. The decor is charming, beds very comfortable with beautiful bed linen provided. The kitchen is set up with all you need and basic provisions along with a welcome bottle of wine, crackers and dip is extremely generous. The location is perfect, whilst being set in a peaceful, private location is within walking distance of the beach and shops of Huskisson. Great for that morning coffee. To top it all off the owners are a pleasure to deal with. Your privacy is assured. Highly recommended.

Place was beautiful as usual, second time we have stayed for a long weekend. Claudia and John are always willing to fix something straight away. The decor is stunning, the beds and pillows are very very comfy..... it's like being at home.
