Nestled in lush native bush on the sought-after Rocklands Road, this unique retreat blends natural beauty with artistic charm, offering a perfect base for your Golden Bay getaway. Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway.

A few extra things that are now available include:

Coffee machine

Air fryer

Thermomix-style kitchen appliance

Juicer and various other kitchen appliances

A much larger selection of games

Exercise equipment

A well-stocked pantry with various food items, herbs, spices and everyday essentials

Full-sized household consumables, such as laundry powder and cleaning products, rather than the usual small holiday rental supplies.

“This is our much-loved family home, which we open to guests while we’re away. Unlike a typical holiday rental, the house is thoughtfully equipped for everyday family living, with a well-stocked kitchen, plenty of games, useful appliances and lots of little extras to make your stay comfortable. As this is our primary residence, some personal belongings and family touches remain throughout the home, while dedicated space is provided for guests to settle in and make themselves at home.”
