The Old Boathouse - kayak / high speed internet / minutes to the beach

A freshly painted boutique style 3 bedroom holiday home at Burrill Lake near Milton-Ulladulla. Situated close to the lake and a short stroll to the beach and several shops within the tranquillity of the South Coast of NSW.

Minimum booking period is 2 nights. Please note that the price per night at the top of the page refers to bookings outside of holiday periods and is automatically placed there by Stayz. For accurate pricing, please refer to the pricing section.

Upstairs comprises the main bedroom (BIR), large bathroom, kitchen (with jarrah benchtop and dishwasher) and bright living areas. The dining room seats 8 and there is a separate TV room with a Smart TV. Enjoy views of Pigeonhouse Mountain from the kitchen, covered entertaining deck (with table also seating 8 and hooded gas barbeque) and lounge room.

Downstairs, the property features two bedrooms - one with double bed, the other with two singles. The large rumpus room, with two double bed futons giving options for more guests as well as a play area for children and second Smart TV, opens on to the front paved area. There is a large modern laundry and second bathroom. Sliding door access leads to an expansive timber decking out the back, leading to well-shaded lawn with several seating areas amongst the secluded landscaped gardens.

Flyscreens and ceiling fans add to your summer comfort.

NOTE: The Photo Gallery also has a floorplan showing the arrangement of the house.

All linen and bath towels are provided. Should you have very small children, we can provide a portable cot as well as safety gates for the stairs.

We also have a 2-man inherently buoyant kayak (one child-sized lifejacket also available) and esky for your use.

LOCATION:

5 mins drive south of Ulladulla (3.5 hours from Sydney, 2 hours from Canberra) and situated well off the Princes Highway.

Local Attractions

There is everything from fishing, swimming, water skiing, surfing, snorkelling, diving, boating, bird watching to bushwalking as well as several great eateries.

Fishing, swimming and water skiing in Burrill Lake (only 100m away) including use of our 2-man kayak. Surfing and swimming at the local beach 10 minutes walk away (the patrolled beach is at Mollymook). There are other beach areas worth visiting, like Tabourie and Dolphin Point.

Mollymook has two golf courses and, for the walking enthusiasts, why not conquer the peak of Pigeonhouse Mountain (30 km drive away).

Bird watching, mini golf, tennis and the Tabourie Museum are just some of the other local attractions.

LOCAL SHOPS AND EATERIES

Burrill Lake has its own takeaway seafood (among the best in Australia!) and a great cafe for breakfast and lunch or takeaway healthy food. Within walking distance of the Old Boathouse are a bottle shop, fishing tackle supplier, stand-up paddling (lessons available) and a stroll over the bridge to a post office/newsagency, mini-market and hairdresser. Just across the road is a beautician/spa to complete your holiday experience.

Milton-Ulladulla boasts many cafes and restaurants with local seafood the pick of most menus. There's also great shopping in historic Milton with Nowra/Berry 45 minutes north and Batemans Bay/Mogo 30 minutes south.

Great stay at this well appointed property- very comfortable, very clean & lots of additional bonuses- we loved the spin in the kayak- just a short walk down the road. There was a massive, unprecedented storm- but no problems for us & prompt response with additional clean mid stay organised from the owner. Highly recommend.

Wonderful Holiday Home

The Old Boat House is a true gem, beautifully presented with an incredible eye for detail, we can honestly say that this is one of the best holiday homes we have ever stayed in. We had a great week away, the area is quiet and relaxing but close enough to everything you could need with Ulladulla, Milton and Mollymook just minutes up the road. We will certainly will be back...
