Haven Stay 4BR Retreat
Summary: Escape and unwind, as you experience the warmth, charm and luxurious touches of this light-filled haven. Our private and tranquil retreat is nestled in secluded Newhaven, conveniently just a stones-throw from all the amenities Phillip Island and San Remo have to offer. Get away from it all at this peaceful and quiet hideaway, with relaxing indoor and outdoor spaces, sea outlook and secluded beach just a short stroll away.
The Space: This stylish home has both vintage charm and modern elegance in abundance. Be greeted by a meticulously designed and appointed interior that seamlessly marries old-world features with contemporary comforts. The luxurious master bedroom boasts a canopy Queen bed and a generous private ensuite with rain-head shower and separate dressing room.
Unwind in sheer tranquillity in the substantial soaking tub in the second bathroom, and enjoy relaxing views to the cottage garden beyond. This cottage wing of the home boasts two more sizeable bedrooms, and a central dedicated workspace, all bathed in an abundance of natural light streaming through character windows. The workspace is equipped with an HDMI monitor and houses a wide selection of books and puzzles for your enjoyment.
A unique glass corridor adds a touch of architectural brilliance to the home, connecting the classical magic of the cottage to the striking modern wing. A welcoming wood-fire graces the large open living, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere for family gatherings or quiet nights in. This wing is also home to the 4th bedroom.
The fully equipped kitchen is a culinary haven, allowing you to whip up delicious meals at your leisure. Bring the family around the substantial dining table for a memorable feast, or enjoy the fun of a board game. Open the wall of bi-fold doors and enjoy a seamless connection to the outdoor deck that adjoins the dining space, perfect for an afternoon drink as you soak up the sun and keep an eye on the chef!
Step into the beautifully landscaped garden to the expansive patio, where a barbecue and family sized outdoor table awaits your culinary adventures amidst the fresh island air. The garden and fully fenced yard provide a serene backdrop for relaxation, and the quiet street with low traffic flow ensures a peaceful escape.
Luxurious hotel quality bed linen and towels are included, so you can focus on creating lasting memories in this gorgeous property. For your convenience, we provide a washing machine and dryer, ensuring that your stay remains as carefree as possible.
Our beautiful cottage is a gateway to The Island and the Bass Coast’s natural beauty and attractions. Newhaven is a hidden gem – you’re a leisurely morning stroll away one of Phillip Island’s best cafes, treat the family to a post-surf lunch at the famous ‘Island Pies’, and wander home after a fabulous waterfront dinner at Saltwater restaurant.
You’ll be guaranteed to experience our local wildlife on your twilight or morning wander, with the resident echidna, pairs of majestic Cape Barren geese and native bandicoots all a common sight – please drive carefully. At twilight the sky is filled with silhouettes of an abundance of birds, as they return to roost in the neighbouring wetlands – including giant pelicans, geese, swans and many more.
Less than 5 minutes drive from more restaurants, cafes and essentials at San Remo, 10 minutes from some of Victoria’s best surf beaches and 15 minutes from bustling Cowes – let the holiday begin as soon as you’ve crossed the bridge! Experience the perfect blend of comfort, style, and serenity at our Phillip Island Haven.

Beautiful house!
We had an incredible stay at this beautiful house! The location is absolutely perfect – just a short stroll to the beach, which made it easy to enjoy morning walks. The house itself is spacious, spotless, and beautifully decorated, with all the modern amenities you could ask for. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals.
The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet, perfect for a relaxing getaway, yet close enough to local shops to walk and grab a coffee. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to unwind.
Highly recommend this house for anyone.
