Pet-friendly

A cosy bush getaway 10 minutes drive from the best beaches in Jervis bay. Beautifully decorated house, with art from our creative friends and remote NT communities, indoor plants, nice lighting, comfy furniture and quality linen. Did we mention outdoor bath!?

Wake up to kookaburras, kangaroos, finches rustling in the banksias; sun streaming through the kitchen window; a coffee on the deck covered with ferns and shaded by towering gumtrees, then hit the beach(es!)! Go to sleep to the rain on the tin roof; or ideally the soft summery breeze through the gum trees; and the sound of bandicoots squeaking to their friends (the kangaroos).

This is a rustic bush block getaway - cosy and cute! We've recently done a bit of a renno - so enjoy our huge deck, outdoor shower and bath, and new and improved second wing!

The seclusion + private bushy outlook is a plus, as is proximity to beaches! We are located in a small pocket of houses, a short drive to Vincentia and Huskisson. This property has stairs - so unfortunately difficult access for wheelchairs and people that struggle with mobility. Well suited to the adventurous! There's threel bedrooms with double/queen bed in each; and two bathrooms.

If you love the forest-bathing, simple shack life, looking at the trees from the bath with a glass of wine in hand, this is the house for you!...

Additional Information

Our house is the perfect launch pad from which to explore Jervis Bay (and Basin!). Our bush block is set back from the road and neighbouring properties, and is secluded and peaceful. We’re surrounded by nature, so you might spot the occasional lizard or bug around the place.

The main wing has two bedrooms (with double beds), and a small bathroom (there is a quirky ‘half door’ that you might have to go through sideways). The new ‘boat house’ wing has a big bedroom with queen bed, beautiful new bathroom, and large living space (with fancy new tv), complete with euro laundry, + bar fridge. The main house living / dining area offers a well stocked kitchen, fridge, microwave, kettle, coffee and tea facilities, sodastream etc. There are stools for bench side dining / company while you cook, and a small dining table and couch inside. Huge deck for indoor/outdoor living; big picnic table for outdoor meals, and comfy couches on the back deck. The split system air con / heater keeps you warm or cool in the relevant season; and a backyard fire pit is fun in any season! (please be mindful of fire restrictions)

There's plenty of deck space and different hideaways to get into a good book; chuck on a movie if it’s raining, or hit up the board games! (Balderdash, Monopoly, Toggle, etc)

Plenty of backyard for kids/adults to roam; currently the place is not fenced off fully from neighbours so not ideal for pets (but happy to negotiate!)

The property backs onto a beautiful creek - Worrowing Waterway- that flows out to St Georges Basin. It's nice to take a walk along the creek at sunset or early morning (flying fish, ducks, general stillness), and it's just a short 5 minute walk through Old Erowal Bay streets to the Basin.

Old Erowal Bay is well situated, being one of the closest townships to Booderee National Park - about a 10 minute drive. Spend a few days / a week or two exploring all the beaches, walks, rides, kayaking adventures in the area - there's so much to do!

There's a big shopping complex 5 minutes drive away, with Woolworths, butchers, bakery, Aldi, Post office, fish and chips, pharmacy, sushi, etc. Nearby Vincentia (10 mins) has a coles, thai takeaway, good local butcher with local produce, whole foods store, & great beaches (we love the privacy of Orion beach, and Blenheim beach for shade and bush meets beach cove); while Huskisson (12/15 ish mins away) has great little cafes, beaches, shops, burgers, and beachside beers).

We’ll send through all our great local tips once you book!...

Old Erowal Bay

My partner Laura and I, and our two kids Mabel and Percy live between Beechworth Vic, Jervis Bay NSW and are often on the road exploring! We love creating warm, inviting homes that showcase fabulous art. We love outdoor baths, natural lighting, indoor plants, and relaxing places to read a book and enjoy a glass of wine. …

These are the exclusive natural wonders and outdoor activities within the property boundaries.

Worrowing Waterway Walk

Walk up the street (in direction away from Page St) and turn right into bushy block about 10 houses down. Turn right and follow the Worroring waterway along through the bush for a beautiful 10 minute walk to the St Georges Basin....

Outdoor Equipment Provided

Enjoy the outdoors with the following equipment included in your stay.

Kayak (1)

We have a two person kayak next to the house. There's paddles and 2 x life jackets in the tin /garden shed. You can carry it to the back of the property, and pull it under the fence. We've been trying to get a gate put in but no luck with our neighbour yet! It gets a bit muddy as you have to push the kayak under the fence, and then crawl under the fence... you can also push the Kayak in, and then walk out the front of the property, turn right on McGowen St and walk down to the empty block, and along the creek to the right. Shoot us a message if any questions....
