Shell Cottage: Spacious Family Accommodation 2 min Walk to Beach & Ocean views

Shell Cottage is a welcoming, light-filled holiday home with stunning views over the ocean and treetops in Long Beach, NSW. The house has been designed for families and travellers to relax and unwind in a coastal bush setting. This spacious property is perfect for large or extended family groups with sleeping arrangements for 8 people.

The sands of the stunning child-friendly and dog-friendly Long Beach shoreline is a mere 200 metres or two-minute stroll from your front door. Situated 10 minutes from Batemans Bay on the NSW south coast, 2 hours east of Canberra and 4 hours south of Sydney, this property is perfect for a weekend getaway or an extended beach holiday.

Long Beach is a 2km long white sand beach, facing northwest towards the Toll House Islands. Perfect for walking, swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing, and snorkelling. You will never lack for activities in this gorgeous unspoiled part of the world.

Upstairs features two generous bedrooms, with relaxing leafy views making them the perfect place to rest and recharge after your daily adventures.

Downstairs is a kids and teen haven, featuring a large combined bedroom and kids zone.

- 2 x bunk beds (sleeping 4 in total)
- TV with access to streaming services
- books and toys suited to a range of ages
- a couch perfect for chilling out
- separate bathroom

In the heart of the home, with leafy views to the northern end of Long Beach, is a generous modern kitchen and two living areas for guests to gather, eat and relax together. Your hosts have supplied many items to make your stay as comfortable and easy as possible. You will find many books and games throughout the living areas. There are three outside seating areas/balconies to relax, read or enjoy a meal.

Start your day with coffee and breakfast on the balcony, enjoying the gentle ocean breeze and watching the waves play on the sands and rock pools through the graceful gums. If you are feeling energetic, set out on the walk along the shoreline at low tide north, where you can explore hidden beaches and rock pools on your way to the charming coffee shop and bakery at Maloney’s Beach. Or enjoy a day on the water, exploring the bay in one of the two kayaks provided for guest use.

Venture out for a day exploring local walking tracks, swimming, boating, boutique shopping or enjoying the delicious food scene of the Eurobodalla area. Make family memories at the Mogo Wildlife Park, the brand new Aquatic Pavilions splash park and waters slides, or the excellent playground in the Botanic Gardens.

When you have had your fill of the amazing experiences of Long Beach and its surrounds, come home to watch the king parrots and rainbow lorikeets play in the gum trees as you unwind from the day, with the whisper of the waves on the sand settling you in for the evening.

Great Weekend
We had a lovely weekend at the beautifully positioned and presented property, a short walk from the dog friendly and not too crowded beach. Property manager was wonderful, welcoming and kind. There are quite a few stairs, which allows for multiple, pretty private, living spaces, which would suit families with more independent kids really nicely. Very easy to enjoy, hope to come back soon!

Awesome accomodation
This place was neat, clean and amazingly spacious. More than enough room for us (4 adults and a teen)... could have accomodated more! Thiugh the weather wasn't on our side, the beach was a short walk.away and it was a short drive into town.

Fantastic stay
We were Narrawallee regulars but are now Long Beach converts! The house and location were perfect. Everything we needed had been thought of and the house was spotless. We especially loved lazing on the lounge after a busy beach day. The beach was bliss for all of us including our one year old pup. We were delighted to discover the coffee van and pizza cart on Tuesday and the burger/chip van on Friday. Such a fabulous, family friendly beach! We really didn’t want to leave! Thanks again for a wonderful stay!

Perfect Family Getaway
We stayed at Shell Cottage for 3 nights but did not want to leave! They have thought of everything, from the fully functional kitchen to the immaculate and well presented bedrooms. My children loved their private haven which included a bathroom, perfect for rinsing off the sand after an afternoon at the beach (3 minute walk!). The children’s books and games were an added bonus. Both bathrooms were extremely clean, no mould and the water pressure was great. The beds were really comfortable and beautifully presented. The thought and attention to detail throughout the house really helped to bring everything together for a relaxing and stress free stay. While we didn’t use them, we did notice a high chair and portable cot also available to use. We will definitely be back to stay again and highly recommend to any families looking for a family friendly holiday space where everything has been thought of. You just need to turn up and relax!
