About this property

The Sixth Hole @Kanturk Country Retreat

The Sixth Hole is a classic, rustic one bedroom, log cabin with a large open plan kitchen/living area featuring a large stone fireplace. It's a great place for cozy evenings in front of the roaring fire. The bedroom features an antique brass and cast iron queen-sized bed. There is a sofa in the lounge that can be used as a double bed. This cottage also has reverse cycle heating and cooling and full kitchen facilities.
A wide verandah give a commanding view over the croquet lawn and the first fairway of the golf course.
On the other side of the cottage, a second verandah joins the barbecue rotunda.

The property:
It is set in country gardens on a property of three hectares with native bush walks, bbq facilities, tennis court, swimming pool and country-style golf course. Ideal for sit around the fire in the log cabin with a glass of wine and solve the world's problems. Or just enjoy the bird watching.

Property Rules:

Private property
The house inside the driveway circle is our home and is private property. The rest of the property is for you to enjoy. Let us know what you are particularly interested in so we can ensure it is ready for use when you arrive. 
Welcoming party
Our little dogs Marley and Lulu will join the welcoming party on arrival. They are very friendly little dogs - toy poodles and a Maltese terrier. Please let us know if you don't like dogs and we will keep them inside. The golf course, tennis court and swimming pool are shared facilities for the use of all guests.

Day guests
We are legally responsible for anyone who is on the property, not only for management of facilities, to cover insurance, but also in the event that we need to evacuate the property. For this reason it is our policy to charge a $20 fee per person for day-guests to visit. We feel this is a nominal fee considering what we offer. Even so, we only allow day-guests by prior arrangement. Failure to comply will result in forfeiture of bond.

Heating and cooling
All cottages have reverse cycle heating and cooling. The reverse cycle units are turned on by pushing the red button on the remote. Select either the snow flake (cooling) or the sun (heating). Adjust the temperature accordingly. Please turn the units off when you leave the cottages.

Music and noise
Good relations with our neighbours is something we value as very important to our business, we all living in this environment for the peace and serenity it offers. As such we don't allow excessive loud music which may affect the amenity of the area. We provide CD players in all the cottages. We ask that music played outdoors is played at a reasonable level and turned off by 9pm. We ask that guests consider neighbours and other guests when playing music. 

Behaviour by the pool
There is no bombing, running or boisterous behaviour allowed at the pool and no glassware or bottles allowed poolside. Plastic 'glassware' is provided. Please hang towels on the clothesline and don't leave them on the pool chairs. Also if you have a bbq in the pool pavilion, clean up after use and leave it as you found it returning food etc to your cottage fridge. The pool pavilion fridge is for use during a bbq only. Clean the bbq for the use of other guests. If you have inflatable toys for use at the pool, please take them back to your cottage after use. If behaviour causes a disturbance to the amenity of the area, such as a complaint from a neighbour or the police, $300 will be deducted from your bond.

Excess rubbish
We try to minimise our impact on the environment as much as possible, and sort rubbish so it can be effectively disposed of as easily as possibly, also our local tip accepts recyclables only to facilitate this we provide a recycle bin (with a yellow lid) for bottles, cans and cardboard and a green rubbish bin for general rubbish. If you have rubbish in excess of this, please put them into appropriate garbage bags beside the appropriate bin. You will be charged a rubbish disposal fee of $120. If the rubbish has to be sorted, you will be charged a fee of $50 per bag. 

Local Attractions
Enjoy the natural setting (wallabys and koalas used to live in this area but now are rarely seen) abundant birdlife occasionally sugar gliders in the of Langwarrin South, just 45 minutes from Melbourne CBD, five minutes to shopping centres of Somerville, Langwarrin and Pearcedale and 15 minutes to the seaside thriving metropolis of Frankston, Hastings and Tooradin, if fishing is more your thing.
The award winning Pearcedale Conservation Park and Moonlit Sanctuary - a great place to see wallabies, koalas and a host of other wildlife, is just five minutes away.
Langwarrin South is at the gateway to the beautiful Mornington Peninsula with its stunning beaches, world class golf courses, wineries and restaurants.
Kanturk is an ideal location to relax if taking part in any of the major events on the peninsula; yachting races, triathlons, cycling events or golfing competitions just to name a few.
Or if you want to play a round at some of the world class golf courses, start the day with a warm up round at Kanturk then head out ready to take on the world.
If hitting the surf beaches is more your scene, wake up refreshed then head down the coast to Point Leo (30 minutes away) or down the Peninsula Link freeway to Gunnamatta, Portsea, Sorrento (50 minutes away) or stop at any of the many beaches along the way.
Fishing and boating activities abound at nearby Tooradin, Warneet, Yaringa Boat Harbour and Hastings all about 15 minutes away. And of course Langwarrin Flora and Fauna Reserve, Cruden Farm, the home of the late philanthropist Dame Elisabeth Murdoch, Mulberry Hill the home of the late artist Sir Daryl Lindsay and Lady Joan author of 'Picnic at Hanging Rock' the award winning Pearcedale Moonlit Sanctuary is five minutes away.

Getting there:
Trains run regularly from Melbourne to Frankston. Every 20 minutes in peak hours and approximately hourly until midnight.
Buses run every few hours from Frankston to Pearcedale (the 776 bus) which stops at both ends of West Road. However we will usually try and pick you up from Frankston station if we can. This is by prior arrangement obviously. Taxis also operate from Frankston.

Short recharge break
This log cabin is very cute. The kitchen is fully equipped and there's a huge barbecue as well. It's set in such a quiet area, hard to believe that it's less than an hour from Melbourne.

About the host

Hosted by Sally Bird

Host profile image
We are former journalists who have retired early due to the changes in the industry in recent years. Sally now makes handmade soap and natural body products which she sells through her business Bird Body Essentials, and Gary keeps the garden and property in shape. It keeps us on our toes.

Why they chose this property

Why not. It is cosy and charming and sitting in front of a fire in the big stone fireplace with a glass of red with that special person in winter is what magical moments are made of.
