BAY OF FIRES VISTA Boutique Accommodation at Binalong Bay - spa bath

This magnificent home is a wonderful place to enjoy the Bay of Fires, and a relaxing break. The property is a large stunning 4 bedroom home tucked away in a quiet location, adjoining the bush, yet with surprisingly good sea views right up the Bay of Fires to Eddystone Point

Sit back and enjoy the alfresco dining areas, fire up the pizza oven, grab a wine and simply enjoy the fabulous ambience of the beautiful large gardens. Or if that is not your thing, you can just sit on the upper deck and admire the views right across world renowned Bay of Fires.

This is an ideal house for more than one couple to enjoy, and still have complete privacy.

The master bedroom is on a separate level, and features a king bed, walk-in-robe, with an en-suite bathroom. Double doors open out onto the upper level living area, and then out onto the deck.

Separating the master bedroom from the rest of the house, is the open plan dining/kitchen area. The modern kitchen has everything you could ever want. Gas cooktop for instant heat, electric oven, convection microwave, full size fridge/freezer granite benchtops, and 2 drawer dishwasher.

The rest of the house features another living/family room with a smaller dining area. Flat screen television, Nintendo Wii, lots of books and games, desk, and for those cold evenings a wood-fired heater. This no doubt will be the place the children will enjoy!

At this end of the house there are 3 more bedrooms, and a bathroom. The fully-tiled bathroom features a small spa bath, shower and toilet. There is also a separate toilet, and a modern laundry. Though we do not have a dryer, there is a large outdoor clothes line, and a clothes horse available.

What to do in Binalong Bay & Surrounds

A short walk down the hill to our local restaurant, Merestä Eatery

Buy a platter or order a pop up picnic from our local Salty Picnic Co

Then wander another 50 meters and you can be lazing or walking along the Beach.

Walk the coastline of our World Famous Bay of Fires. Or go south, along Skeleton Bay - and keep an eye out for the whales in season.

Walk around Grants Lagoon - this time look out for the birds and the wildflowers which include lots of wonderful native orchids.

Book the local tennis court ($5) for a hit of tennis down on the waterfront, whilst the children play in the playground - have a BBQ down on the green.

Take a boat tour up the beautiful Bay of Fires Coastline with Bay of Fires Eco Tours - which leave Binalong Bay Gulch - less than 5 minutes drive away from the house. Or a 15 minute walk.

Jump in the car and take a short 10 minutes drive into St Helens where I suggest you visit the galleries, the collectibles store, and take a stroll down to the waterfront. If you like golf there is a pleasant little golf course. Take the kids to the local Serpentarium. Go the local picture theatre and visit the distillery.

A little further afield takes you to the St Columbia Falls, the Pyangana Cheese Factory, the Pub in the Paddock, the Shop in the Bush, and even the famous Blue Tiers. Or drive south along the Coast and visit Bichino, where you can see the blowhole and visit Natureworld to meet the cute Tasmanian Devils and lots more wildlife. Visit Wineglass Bay at Freycinet. Visit the wineries and a boutique beer brewery - whatever takes your fancy.

Awesome!!!
This was the most comfortable, cosy, clean, friendly place to stay. We love it and are looking forward to coming back soon. Great for the dogs they had a ball and the yard was fenced off for them to stay safely, and the pizza oven was a real hit.

A beautiful home
An exceptional property for a multi family beach vacation. Has everything you need and more. Do take some ear buds for night sleeping as the local frogs provide quite the night performance which takes some getting used to.

Great dog friendly house
We had 6 relaxing nights in this lovely property. The house is really spacious and well provisioned. The real highlight for us and our dogs was the large, beautiful backyard. It was very inviting and we spent a lot of time enjoying the peace and quiet. The only improvement we would suggest is the addition of a Smart TV, to make the most of the free WiFi.

Binalong Bay gem
We fell in love with the house as soon as we walked in the front door. It is spacious, elegant, well-equipped and perfectly positioned for exploring the area. There is masses of parking, either under the carport or on the gravel area at the front of the house.

Nothing short of perfection
6 adults stayed here for 2 nights and we could not have asked for more. Immaculate property with your choice of decks with lovely views, easy to use pizza oven, outdoor seating in excellent condition and 2 living areas indoors. The kitchen is fully decked out and both TV'S (yep, there's 2) have lots of streaming services. Heaps of parking and also dog friendly. The yard is AMAZING. Stay here, you will not be disappointed.

Beautiful home away from home
Fantastic place to stay for the weekend. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, warm. House was absolutely spotless. Not panoramic views of bay of fires but definitely enough water views! Quite a way from the beach but only a 1 min drive. Plenty of wood supplied for the wood heater and pizza oven (which was fantastic). Perfect for families - 3x double bedrooms and 1x single bed (that I think has a trundle), also has a portacot (which we didn't use but good to know the option is there). We would definitely come here again on next visit to bay of fires.

Wow!
This was one of those rare occasions where the house ends up better than the photos! Everything in the house was top quality, from the appliances to the bedding. Extremely comfortable, crispy clean, very very roomy with two seperate lounges, a funky garden and beautiful view. Very kid friendly with games etc provided, a huge grassy yard the kids could play on and the bath/spa was a hit. A stones throw from everything, close to the beach. Only regret was we didn't stay longer. We will definitely be back. My new favourite place in the world is Binalong Bay.

Great views, outstanding location and gorgeous property
We spent 4 wonderful nights in this property and were so thrilled we chose it. We were a family of 3 with both sets of parents with us. This property has several different living and entertaining areas to allow for a bit of privacy or just 'alone time' during the stay. It was a great idea and saved everyone's sanity!!!. The property itself was clean and well equipped with every mod con. We had a small issue with the water pump but Jan and a Rob made fixing it a priority and nothing seemed to be too much of a bother for them. It was a short 5-10 minute walk to the beach but uphill all the way home...only a 1 minute drive though!! Would definitely recommend this place for families. Heaps of space!!!!

Amazing Place with a family feel
This house is fantastic. It's situated up a hill in a peaceful spot, the views from the lounge are brilliant. With the binoculars provided my son spent lots of time watching for dolphins and boats. It's a great house for families but would also be great for a few friends as their are 2 separate lounges and bathrooms. The garden with deck is also gorgeous. I wanted to test out the pizza oven but with St Helens close by there were too many places to eat out. The only tiny negative I have (this is only a negative for parents) was the highchair was unusable for a 6 month old. It was a great antique high chair but it had no straps and no centre post to hold a baby in which means they could easily slide out the bottom. It wasn't a problem though we just sat baby on knee to feed. I would love to stay here again it's a very peaceful and comfortable house to stop in.
