Cast-away is available all year round and is pet-friendly for a small dog. Throw in your towel, sheets and grab some food supplies along the way and your set for a casual beach escape. The Cast-away 'board-walk' provides convenient access to the beach pathway opposite that leads onto beautiful Macmasters Beach. While the kettle's boiling for that morning cuppa, you can check out the surf and beach via the path opposite. Cast-away is set amongst beautiful sheltering trees. Accommodation comprises 1 queen bedroom, 1 double bedroom, and a 3rd bedroom with 2 single beds and a trundle bed. The bathroom and an additional powder room are both recently renovated and include shower, 2 toilets and 2 vanity areas.
Cast-away has an enormous rear timber deck with semi roof covering for weather protection. This deck is sheltered and provides a 'birds-eye' view of the local wildlife with baby mudlarks nesting on nearby tree branches, lorikeets, blue bower birds displaying their finest and bush turkeys visiting. This deck is perfect for bar-b-ques and outdoor dining (table seating for 8-10) and for catching up with some quiet reading time away from the hectic pace of a day of beach, fishing and surfing. There is also a second covered deck leading to the front door and off the boardwalk providing a lovely sunny morning aspect (perfect for the early morning cuppa) and another great afternoon reading spot.

The separate kitchen looks out over the trees and duck ponds, is well equipped and includes microwave, oven and stove top, large upside down fridge/freezer.
The lounge is a large open plan space with open fire and TV and DVD, comfy sofas and also includes the dining area (table seating for 4-6) and opens to the large rear tree-top deck. Plenty of dvds, books, magazines and games are provided.

There is a 2nd beach shower for a rinse off after a day at the beach, a separate laundry, outdoor furniture on both decks, gas bar-b-que, convenient undercover parking for 2 cars and a great large concreted driveway-play area for kids on bikes/scooters and hop-scotch!

You can fall straight into the surf from the beach path opposite, swim at patrolled Macmasters Beach and its beautiful rockpools, have a quiet paddle at Cockrone Lagoon (a 2 min stroll), enjoy breakfast at the many beach-side cafes at Macs and Copa beaches just up the beach, surf the perfect wave breaks and explore the rockpools, choose a spot anywhere along the beach for beach fishing - or just do all of them! Check out our photo gallery for pictures of Macmasters Beach, Cockrone Lagoon, Copacobana and beach access to dog friendly zone opposite.
