Our family loved our stay here. Perfect to unwind & reconnect to nature. The house is simple but with everything you need. If you prefer a modern style there are other places but I'd prefer the beach life: being surrounded by the birds & the bush. You can have this outside or inside with the beautiful view.
Very close to walk to the lighthouse & coffee shop, clifftop walk or down to Step beach. Wonderful rock pools at low tide.
Walkable to shops & for safe swimming for younger ones at Painkalac Creek. Not far to Fairhaven surf beach (patrolled Jan - check website for other months).
Top house & location. Definately recommend if you can climb a few steps & enjoy real life over man-made McMansions.
This lovely holiday house has wonderful ambience, with the sound of waves and views across to Lorne.

Such a fabulous holiday stay!
We felt so comfortable from the moment we entered the home. So close to beaches, walking tracks, bike riding tracks. Stunning views from the lounge. Felt like we were in a treehouse being in a stilt home and loved it! Lots of puzzles for our family to complete, excellent kitchen facilities and very comfy beds. An excellent property and we are already talking about returning and LOVED being so close to the beautiful lighthouse!

Great location and beach bush vibes!
We loved our stay here- the old stilted house style, the selection of books and games, everything you need inter kitchen, the amazing location in the bush - it felt so private and a few minutes walk to Step Beach and the lighthouse- such wild beauty.
I highly recommend a tour of the lighthouse and lunch at the old stables cafe!
Thanks so much!
