A home away from home
Located 2.2km from the centre of Inverloch, a 5 minute drive to the shops and a two minute drive to the beach. You'll love everything about this little home. With all the bedrooms upstairs and a big communal space downstairs, we think you'll have everything you could possibly need. We have NBN, so you'll be able to relax with a movie after a long day at the beach or work in peace, knowing you'll have great internet for video conferencing! And, the couches are really comfy.
We believe that the original bones of the house are about 50 years old. We (as well as the previous owners) have done lots of work to make the house as beautiful as possible.
We've installed new fly wire on all the windows and doors and after a guest suggested some hanging space the the main bedroom, we have put a clothes rack in. There are new curtains on the main bedroom window too. We have ordered a blind for the big window downstairs, this will give you a little more privacy (due to be installed by March 2022).
We are constantly working to make things better so if there is anything you see that needs to be fixed or enhanced - please let us know.

Beach time
Newly renovated house , fantastic for families walk to the beach. Very clean and everything provided , the owner tried to make us as comfortable and very welcome . Huge TV in lounge , as well as one in up stairs main bedroom which has its own little balcony. Quality cooking equipment and nicely furnished. The upstairs bedrooms get quite warm even though the temperature was mild.
. House is on a main road and the traffic was a bit noisy at night . Polished concrete floor was cold underfoot on cooler days. Very nice spot to spend a summer holiday . Thanks for letting us stay !
