Family and pet friendly beach house

Our guests comment on how unique it is to have access to a whole house, close to beaches and in a quiet street with a huge back deck overlooking a large and private back yard. We aim for our guests to feel relaxed as soon as they open the front door. Many guests comment that our house reminds them of the beach holidays they themselves experienced as children. For personal safety, we have implemented an enhanced cleaning program with hospital grade cleaning products and the provision of sanitiser and liquid soap.
Port Macquarie is a fantastic all year destination. The weather is mild and sunny and the water temperature varies between 20 - 24 degrees. A 5-10 minute walk from the end of our street will take you to Town Beach, with lifesavers on duty all year. A swim and coffee at Town Beach is a perfect start to the day. The migrating humpback whales can be viewed, between May and October, from the coastal path and the reserve at the end of the street, 20 metres from your front door.
Rainbow lorikeets love the nectar on our flowering grevillias in our front garden, with a newly laid lawn and more Australian native plants to attract birds.

Perfectly positioned on Port Macquarie's beautiful 9km coastal path, you are minutes from beaches, cafes and the CBD. Take the coastal path 10 minutes north for your morning coffee and swim at Town Beach or take the path south for 10 minutes to Flynns Beach and a great breakfast at Sandbox. Walk into town along the coastal path and breakfast on Town Green at Little Shack. Port City Bowling Club and tennis courts are a 10 minute walk. Two golf courses are ten minutes by car. Wifi and a smart TV will keep you entertained at home.
Having travelled overseas, staying in online rentals, our priorities for a relaxed holiday include a comfortable bed, clean house, proximity to local attractions and access to local knowledge.

Our refurbished beach house has 3 bedrooms - two with queen beds and one with double and single bunks. The living and dining areas lead onto a large covered deck with bbq overlooking a huge backyard and tropical garden with plenty of room for kids and dogs to run around. Downstairs is a second shower and toilet and plenty of storage for bikes, surfboards, fishing gear and golf clubs. Bring the family pet to enjoy meeting new friends at leash free Nobby's Beach.

Places to explore around town include the skateboard park, surfing beaches, restaurants on Town Green, exercise circuits at beaches along the coastal path, weekly markets, a vibrant cafe culture, picnic areas with bbq, an unique Koala Hospital, convict history, local zoo, Historical Museum and wineries.
Relax or be active - the choice is yours!

Spacious and comfortable in a great location
Within walking distance of great beaches and short drive into a developing Port Macquarie, this neatly renovated home has plenty of space and most of the creature comforts you'd crave. Communication with the owners was great. Family stay with 2 kids - recommended for similar size family.

Close to beaches
Great location with easy walk to Town and Flynn beaches (approx. 15 mins flat walk along the very scenic coastal walk). Also a longer walk or short drive to Nobby’s beach which is off leash for dogs. Large backyard which our dog and children enjoyed. Kitchen is really well equipped and the bbq was excellent. Living areas were all very comfortable with big back deck to hang out on. Location was quiet and the property extremely clean. 3rd bedroom could do with a fan for hot days. Bedrooms only had rollers so can be a little bright in the mornings. Very close to town centre so really easy for shopping and food.

Home away from home
We loved our stay here. Five stars for making pets welcome even a water bowl on the decking. The place was clean and had a well equipped kitchen. It truly was a home away from home. Quiet street for our stay in early December. There were just the four of us, two adults and two Shih Tzus in this family sized home. The dogs loved the decking at the back of the property overlooking the tropical backyard. The property is close to beaches, coastal walking track and Port Macquarie town centre. A lot of thought has gone into making this a place to relax and enjoy a holiday with pets. Sea breeze was lovely each day. There are stairs at the property as the back garden slopes down from the house. Our smallest dog Sparkles found this daunting and we needed to carry her up the stairs from the yard, an amusement for us but an arthritic dog may also have issues. The laundry was also at the ground level. This is only a problem if stairs are an issue. Have no hesitation recommending this place for others to enjoy.
