About this property
Melaleuca - Venus Bay, South Australia - Beautiful views, tranquil setting
Melalauca cabin has access to Harbor Point's private beach, set on 70 acres of virgin native vegetation, wonderful for nature walks along the cliff tops and bird watching. It's own private beachfront allows small boats and canoes to be launched and moored for easy access to your favourite whiting spot or to explore an island. The cabin maximises the scenic views of the bay spanning from Venus Bay past the islands to Port Kenny, with wonderful sunsets and the lights of the two towns by night. Plus it has a lockable dog kennel for your pets holiday.
Melaleuca is an open plan cabin with a small master bedroom containing an orthopedic queen size mattress and there is a semi detached bedroom which has 4 single beds and a double bed. There is a potbelly for heating and reverse cycle air conditioner for cooling with ceiling fans. A family size stove, microwave and cooking utensils, crockery and utensils are all supplied. A gas BBQ is on the outdoor entertaining area which encapsulates the stunning views and tranquility of the place, plus a common outdoor wood BBQ and campfire area. The shower and toilet have hot and cold rain water available. Melaleuca has an electric fridge/ freezer. There is a TV/DVD and stereo system with CD player for your enjoyment.
A laundry is available for those staying 7 days or more.
A second smaller cabin is available if required, for further information please enquire or view www.stayz.com.au/27987
LOW KEY ECO-FRIENDLY SETUP
A great way to support the environment, this cabin is totally eco-friendly!
The cabin is run by alternative energy, powered by solar panels and wind generators, with backup batteries and back up generator.
The water supply is rain water, so we do ask that you be water wise and take short showers.
You are required to clean the cabin when you leave, so please be prepared to give it a decent clean, leaving it for the next visitors as you would like to find it. Alternatively, if you wish to pay for the cleaning, we can arrange this.
We also ask that you respect the tranquility and its uniqueness of the property, thus we ask that you be responsible for all family/guests in your group (i.e. excessive noise, hooning, wandering around other private dwellings on the property or not tiding up after yourself is not appreciated, thanks). Also if you are bringing a pet we ask that you be responsible pet owners and respect the wild life around.
EXPLORE, FISH THEN RELAX
Harbor Point is a coastal property 2km from Venus Bay, on the Eyre Peninsula of South Australia. Venus Bay is a peaceful township on a bay of sheltered water, ideal for whiting fishing, canoeing and water sports.
You have easy access to Venus Bay Jetty, Needle's Eye Lookout, South Headland Walking trail, Venus Bay National Park, Talia Caves, Camel Beach surf fishing, Murphy's Hay Stacks, Bairds Bay seals, Streaky Bay, Elliston, Locks Well. Plus you are centrally located between Port Lincoln and Ceduna. Loads of fishing and lots of beaches to explore why not choose this quieter alternative to relax in between all the activities.
