Your Perfect Hat Head Getaway
Step into a beautiful older-style home filled with light and warmth. The perfect spot for a relaxing holiday escape. With its open-plan design and air conditioning, this home is made for comfort and easy living.
At the front, a small welcoming porch sets the tone for your stay the perfect spot for morning coffee or watching the world go by.
Downstairs you’ll find a cosy Queen bedroom, while upstairs the spacious open-plan loft offers a King bed plus two Singles. The single beds are set in their own nook with a portable timber-frame divider, giving that extra touch of privacy while keeping the space light and airy.
The kitchen, complete with dishwasher, has everything you need to whip up those memorable holiday meals. With two bathrooms, each featuring a bath, everyone can unwind in comfort after a day of adventure.
The back deck is a true highlight overlooking the fenced yard, it’s the perfect place to settle into the outdoor furniture, fire up the BBQ, and enjoy long afternoons together. There’s even space in the garage for your bikes and surfboards (please note, no car will fit inside the garage it's for storage only).

Lovely family holiday!
The house was nice and clean with lovely touches like the digital fireplace and a mini Christmas tree which made the vibe just right. We had a lovely stay in one of our favourite parts of the world. Thank you!

Balanced View
Property well supplied with cutlery, utensils, bags etc. Quiet location. Property is fairly clean in main areas (kitchen, b'rooms, lounge). Previous tenant left us two unwashed frypans in the cupboard. The house furnishings are dated and cobwebs over windows and outdoor verandah area. No BBQ as stated in description. It's a 2 bedroom cottage with the upstairs open to all the activity downstairs so if you have early risers make them stay in the loft and you stay in the bottom bedroom which has a door.

Clean, well appointed, comfortable
The cottage is clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with full kitchen, laundry, two baths, TV, etc. The sleeping arrangements are ideal for a family inc. with young kids.
The location is convenient- easy walk to everywhere in Hat Head
We hired linen rather than bring our own- R&R Linen Hire in SW Rocks were great, they made the beds up and everything. Sue was very responsive and easy to deal with
