About this property

Stunning Beach Getaway Home in a Convenient Location in Barwon Heads

Amazing location just a few minutes walk to the river and beach, across the road to coffee shops and round the corner to the golf course!
Get away from the city and enjoy a charming newly renovated weatherboard beach house with enclosed native garden, two outdoor decks and off street parking.

In Barwon Heads,

Walk across the road for happy hour at Beach House or lunch looking over the river at At The Heads where Diver Dan lived! Wander the boutique shops and buy home made bread at Starfish Cafe, breakfast at Ebb and Flow, coffee at Annie's Provedore. On the Bellarine Peninsula, pick blueberries or strawberries or buy mussels from Portalington Pier. Call in at the wineries on the way home. We recommend Oakdene for dinner but there are many great wineries. A great position to walk to any of the wedding venues or the golf course.

At home

Back home enjoy a BBQ, well equipped kitchen, beautiful bathrooms, polished floorboards, indoor games. Smart TV and books provided too. Outdoor shower (hot and cold water) for you and your furry friend after a dip in the water. Feel at home in our beautiful beach house in Barwon Heads.

June Long Weekend excellent
Communication with the host was great, check-in process nice and easy. The house was very clean and just right for us. Heating worked a treat, beds extremely comfortable. Ensuite shower might need a little tinkering as shower water doesn't stay in shower recess, but that's a minor issue. Kitchen and lounge area was well set out and practical. Great house for 5 adults to share a long weekend. Location is just fantastic, a short walk to the main street shops, so handy and so good. Wouldn't hesitate to go back.

Fantastic location
Three-day stay for a weekend wedding held within walking distance from this house. The house is beautiful with three bedrooms. Walking distance to shops, cafes, hotel and the beach. Lovely inside and out and the best location for a casual walk. Property manager Christine was easily contactable and answered emails within a day :). Will stay again. Mark & Lynn

Perfect location to explore and enjoy everything the area has on offer. Walking distance to everything. Fully equipped with everything you need for a long stay. As this was a pet friendly house there was a fair bit of dog hair around.

Perfect location
We had a lovely stay at this charming house. Christine was so easy to communicate with. The location couldn’t have been more convenient especially with a 7yo. It was easy to duck out to grab supplies from the nearby shops or stroll over for a bite to eat. And of course the river and beach right nearby. We didn’t need to use our car at all. The beds were very comfy and warm, and the house had everything we needed. Highly recommend. Thanks again Christine!

Great location, great accommodation
Brilliant location, literally 100m from the shopping/cafe strip but felt like you were in your own little space when you wanted to escape. Perfect size, great for the pooch as well with absolutely everything you need to hand, including the great outdoor BBQ and front deck. Highly recommend and we'll be staying again - our neighbours have already booked!

Terrific house for a family stay. Right next to everything you want. Well stocked and comfortable. Privare and quiet even though on the main road. Only downside is lack of hanging space for your clothes.
