On the Verge - charming Callala Beach cottage

On the Verge is a beautifully presented, traditional cottage, a couple of minutes walk from the clear waters of Callala Beach. With three bedrooms (queen, double, two bunk beds), outdoor dining area, semi-enclosed outdoor lounge, and a spacious backyard, On the Verge is perfect for one family, two couples, or can accommodate two families, as well as dogs (fully fenced). Max four adults please, strictly no schoolies, under 21 yr groups or parties.
On the Verge has everything you need for a relaxing, easy holiday, with a well-equipped kitchen, coffee machine, aircon in the living area, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, flat screen TVs (one in the kids' room with a DVD player), board games, books, toys, outdoor BBQ and woodfire for marshmallow roasting and star-gazing, swings, a cubby hut, a climbing tree, range of outdoor games (including badminton and croquet) and an outdoor shower for washing off after the beach.

Callala Beach area:

Callala Beach is an easy 2 1/2 hour drive south of Sydney and 3 hours from Canberra. It is one of the last sleepy coastal villages with friendly locals, surrounded marine park and national parks.

Callala Beach is renowned for its 4km stretch of beautiful white sand & clear blue waters and is a favourite spot for resident pods of dolphins and migrating whales. Nature is abundant, kangaroo spotting or bird watching with the wake up calls of kookaburras, rosellas and sea eagles. Bring your kayaks for the beach or creek, fishing rods for the rock platform from the beach, snorkelling, sailing, boogie-boarding, boat riding, and cycling, are all popular activities. Catch the ferry to Huskisson for ice cream, fish and chips or a delicious pub lunch.

There are two boat ramps in close proximity, Myola (5min drive) and Callala Bay (5min drive).

The Callala Beach RSL is a great, kid-friendly meeting place with a cheap and cheerful menu, and a 9 hole golf course where you can see Kangaroos.

5 mins drive away, Callala Bay offers Italian and Chinese restaurants, IGA, butcher, bakery, and coffee shop.

This cute property was a smaller property but with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Beds were very comfy, large yard for dogs, grandkids loved the trampoline and the board games. We enjoyed our stay, we found the ferry was expensive especially for a family group, probably best to drive

‘On the Verge’……..Beach getaway
Lovely old cottage at Callala Beach……if you’re after a quiet getaway by the sea with your Dog this little cottage offers it all. Comfortable beds, great location, only a short walk to a Dog friendly beach, secure yard and the odd rabbit to watch while you relax on the bench out the front……prime location allowing you to explore beautiful Jervis Bay.

Rest and Relaxation
We settled in very quickly - a real home away from home - with everything that you need. We had a very relaxing stay with lots of reading, eating and great walks along the beach. Our little dog was secure in the yard and it was great being able to bring her on holidays with us - she really enjoyed her first visit to the beach. The house is in a great location and we would love to stay again.

Perfect weekend escape
We travelled down to Callala for the weekend, my Mother, Husband and 3 children for a quick beach getaway before winter sets in and had an absolutely beautiful stay at The Verge. The house was imaculately clean, well stocked with items such as cutlery, plates, glasses, the bathroom was spacious and everything worked well. It has a perfect little sunroom out the back to relax in and everything was comfortable. The kids absolutely LOVED the backyard, and spent an entire afternoon until well after dark relaxing in the treehouse. The house is perfectly placed, a 5 minute walk from the beach, and only a 5 minute drive to a decent IGA or the local RSL Club which was great for dinner. The host was amazing with communication, giving us a fantastic list of things to do and see with the kids and really responsive. We cant recommend this house enough and will definitely be back there again!

Great stay at Callala Beach
We were really happy with the property at Callala Beach. It was just what we wanted for a 4 day break with our son and grandson. The cottage was very clean, well maintained, roomy, well equipped and light and airy. The beds were comfortable. There are plenty of games for adults and children and a good selection of DVDs. The WiFi speed was excellent. The walk to the beach only takes about 10 minutes, the last 5 of which is through unspoilt coastal bushland with old banksia trees. Suzzane is an excellent host. Here instructions were clear and she kept in touch after a few days of showers to see if we needed anything. We highly recommend the property to anyone looking for a nice cottage close to the beach at Callala beach.

Everything you need only a short walk to an amazing family friendly beach
Location, location, location! An established home away from home within a short beach track walk to one of the most beautiful and calm beaches. Suzanne’s place has everything you need for your stay - she’s kept the house stocked with all the essentials which is really nice. Great aircon, very family friendly for my two young kids (4.5 and just under 2 years old) with little chairs, toys and unbreakable things to eat with. Suzanne is a great host - easy to communicate with and shares local info as part of her check in process which made our little getaway great. Check in and out both easy processes. Easy holiday with all you need at a great Australian beach hamlet.

We were generally very happy. I may have misread the listing but I didn't realise that there was air-conditioning in the living room only. Bed rooms did have fans but not as cool. All manageable. Thank you.
