About this property
Solwara Beach House
Solwara Beach House has been recently renovated and is now ready for you to enjoy.
Imagine unwinding in a fabulous, well equipped and spotlessly clean house with open plan living, really comfy beds and two bathrooms, in peaceful and leafy Silverleaves.
Just an easy 1.5 hours freeway drive from Melbourne, Silverleaves is an ideal place for an extended weekend break, a beachside holiday or a base while you enjoy exploring the many sights of Phillip Island.
Solwara (meaning salt water), is literally metres from the beach, a 40 minute beachside stroll into Cowes, or only 5 minutes by car.
The tranquil, giant banksia tree lined streets of Silverleaves transport you to laid back beachside holidays of the past, which may be all you're seeking, but Solwara is also ideally located within easy reach of all the amenities and attractions that Phillip Island has to offer - the fairy penguins, seals, whales (in winter), koalas, Churchill Island, and the Grand Prix Track, all are just but a few examples to keep you occupied.
Complete with new bathrooms, and a full new kitchen and an outdoor Gas BBQ, you can choose to be self-sufficient, or you may opt to walk or cycle to the nearby Silverleaves Cafe, or enjoy the many and varied quality food offerings of nearby Cowes.
If you want to stay connected while you relax at Solwara you can do that with the free unlimited internet WIFI with fast 50 mbps download speed.
Solwara has 3 bedrooms: 2 with comfy Queen size beds, and 1 with 2 x King Single beds. All are made up for your arrival with fine quality percale linen, woollen quilts and a variety of pillows - to ensure a comfortable stay. Quality bath towels are provided and all bed linen is included in your booking fee, this is not always the case with other holiday rentals.
If the weather is warm, there's an air conditioner and fans to keep you cool and on colder nights you will be cozy and warm in front of the wood heater while you gaze at the flickering flames.
Solwara is uniquely family, couples and wheelchair friendly - providing easy ramp access and wide doorways and hallway.
Everyone can enjoy the special location of Solwara Beach House!

About the host
Hosted by Leah Taylor
We are Beach and Nature lovers that’s why we love coming to Silverleaves to escape the busy city. We take great pride in keeping Solwara Beach House up to the standard that we expect when we travel and stay in B&Bs. Solwara is set up with everything we need for a fun and relaxing holiday and we always ensure it’s sparkling clean for our guests who keep coming back.
Why they chose this property
As soon as we drive into Silverleaves we know we are at our special place, we slow down and begin to relax. The first thing we do is walk across the road to the beach and walk barefoot, this really helps us to reconnect with nature and with each other.
What makes this property unique
We love our Solwara Beach House for its simplicity, it’s open plan living, dual bathrooms, wood heater in winter, and best of all sitting on the deck watching the world drift by. We love to cook and with the kitchen stocked with everything we need to cook up an amazing meal we pour a glass of wine set up a board game and relive many memories of fun holidays past and start planning our new adventure.
