About this property

Blairgowrie Beach Shack

*Featured in Mr Jason Grant's book - Holiday at Home!!*

A light and sunny 1950's Beach Shack, freshly renovated with great views and in a secluded location bewtween surf and bay beaches amongst the peninsula's native tee-trees.

The house is entered via the front deck, which is perfect for an early breakfast in the morning sun or lazy afternoons in the hammock. The house consists of an open plan kitchen connected to the lounge, which features comfortable sofas and an open fire place. Adjacent to the lounge is the sunroom, which has a charming timber dining table, a day bed to soak up the afternoon sun and a bifold door leading out to the back deck. The house is provided with evaporative cooling, which will ensure a comfortable stay, even on hot days.

The house has two bedrooms - one with a king size bed and built in robes, the other with a queen size bed and a set of bunks, in total sleeping up to six persons, ideally, four adults and two children. The clean white bathroom has a large shower and a bath, with a separate toilet.

The property also features a large and untamed garden, a barbeque on the back deck, outdoor shower, a spot of grass to play a game of croquet, a carport for one car and parking for another two cars.

The perfect shack for a great getaway - with fresh interiors, which includes a lot of character and a tranquil, beachy feel - we are sure you will enjoy your stay here, either as a romantic getaway for two, with the whole family or a group of good friends ready for a relaxing weekend. The peninsula has so much to offer and the Blairgowrie Beach Shack is your perfect space to wake up after a restful sleep, ready for the adventures of the day, and a wonderful place to return to after a day of exploring - put your feet up and enjoy a cold glass whilst enjoying the view of the back deck.

We are now pleased to offer fresh linen and towels for your stay! The shack has a queen bed with queen doona, one set of bunks, each with single doonas and one king size bed with king size doona. Both beds have four standard sized pillows each, with each bunk having two pillows each.

The perfect cottage getaway

The cottage is beautifully styled, well laid out and set up. The sun room perfectly located to catch the sun, cozy living and comfortable living room with fire place and plenty of logs supplied. Perched on top of a hill there are lovely district views. Outdoor or indoor dining table and great connection between the kitchen and living areas indoor and outdoor.

Fantastic Blairgowrie Beach Shack

We loved our time in this house. It was everything we hoped it would be for our holiday. It is exactly what it looks like in the pictures - beautifully decorated and furnished. The location was excellent, being close to everything but feeling like you were away from the hustle and bustle when inside the house. We would definitely stay here again if coming back to the area.

Our stay at "Blairgowrie Beach Shack"

We really enjoyed our stay the Blairgowrie Beach Shack. The house was full of character and charm, "Beach Shack" was a good description. We had warm weather, so sitting out on the deck having a BBQ dinner enjoying the peaceful surrounds was memorable. The location is great, close to everything.The house is not large, perfect for a small family or couple.

Cosy shack

We loved our stay at the Beach Shack. Tastefully done inside, the house is inviting and with an open fireplace we were warm and cosy on a cold winter weekend. The day bed in the sunroom which traps the afternoon sun was a delightful place to read. And a big thank you to Luke and Marie for accomodating our requests.

Nice Weekend Getaway

Loved the location and property overall - firepit was amazing and the reading nook overlooking the surroundings made the place so homey! Great communication prior to the stay and the check-in was smooth sailing. The only downside was the overall cleanliness of the place. When you walk in, the smell of the place is quite musty but once you turn on the evaporative cooling system the smell dissipates. Some facilities are rusty or mouldy, like the hairdryer, light fixtures and the blankets were stained. I would recommend the place as it is lovely for a short stay, but I would just keep those other factors in mind. :] Thank you for your accommodation!

Fantastic getaway

The house was cozy, clean and tidy. Luck was very accommodating and very quick to respond with any questions. He is also flexible with check-in and check-out time, which was extremely helpful. The place was very clean and had all of the necessities for a few night stay. It’s just 10 min drive from peninsula hot springs, We had a great stay.

We loved our time in this beautiful beach shack. Quiet street, lovely light filled place with a great vibe and amenities galore. Would highly recommend staying here. The sun room/dining nook was a real highlight and made you feel like you were relaxing in the treetops. Super close to local beaches and a great living space for evening meals/hanging out.

Relaxing getaway with breezes

We had a great time relaxing at this property. Lots of different spaces to spread out in, including a lounge, sunroom, 2 decks, one hammock and front yard. Situated at the top of a hill, it catches lovely breezes and feels private. Kitchen was well kitted out. Only a short 3 min drive to bayside beach. Outdoor shower with hot and cold water was fabulous! We’ll definitely be back!
