Eleanor is our beach house that is wonderful for old fashioned holidays. It is configured so that a second family could stay on the ground floor. There is a whale watching and star gazing roof terrace. Warrain beach is a 2 minute walk, and both Culburra Beach and Lake Woolomboola a 5 minutes walk.
There are two queen beds and 4 single beds and a day bed. Comfy couches and arm chairs, and outdoor settings on all 3 levels. Linen and towels extra $25 per bed includes making, unmaking and washing.
We are going green: electrifying the house! We use a heat pump hot water system which are slower to reheat: be mindful of hot water use especially if there are a lot of you. The stove is induction (dead easy to use) and the air conditioning is reverse cycle. If there are 8 of you, it may be crowded!
Please no charging of vehicles without prior approval: and yes we can tell!
Modern facilities including ac, smart tv, Wi-Fi and broadband, espresso machine, two bathrooms, modern dishwasher, oven, induction cook top, heating and hot water. It is well equipped for cooking, entertaining and holiday activities.
The garden is fully grassed for cricket, soccer and other summer sports. It is fully fenced and good for pets and children.
Culburra is a quiet and sleepy village that, thankfully, time has nearly forgotten.
Local activities include surfing, snorkeling, fishing, windsurfing, canoeing, sailing, golf, swimming, bush walking and cooking the wonderful local seafood and farm produce.
We have a travel cot: use according to instruction, under adult supervision, and entirely at your own risk . Please clean after use. See Photo.
We no longer have Netflix, trampoline, active beehive or dvd player. You can connect the tv using your own streaming services details.

Great house, so comfortable and we just loved sitting on the balcony with its view of the sea after a day at the beach (you can walk to both Culburra and Warrain beach). Downstairs there is a separate bedroom, loungeroom and bathroom which was fabulous for my teen. Highly recommended.
The location was really fantastic - walking distance from all of the places we went. There was a bit of a mixup with the place being cleaned prior to arrival but the host sorted this swiftly. A really lovely place - very cozy and feels like a friend's holiday home! The host also allowed for a late check-in which was very kind. All in all, a great stay!
This was a great property to stay at, the house catered well to our needs and it was an enjoyable stay. My family really enjoyed it at this property and location and all want to go back! Unique accommodation and great proximity to beach.
We were really happy with accommodation.The location was excellent and close to other family near by.The place had everything you could use for a short stay like ours,but for a larger group and for a longer time.
Great place to stay... Lots of walks close by surf and lake. Very comfy. Great cafe just down the road. The place had lots of inclusions and the roof top observation deck was a bonus.
Property was clean and has everything we need, close to the beach and amenities. we enjoyed our stay very much and planning to come back and spend longer in the future.
Winter get away did not disappoint. Grandparents and parents thoroughly loved the place and little 3 year old boy was beside himself with the beach, roof access and the swing!
Great house, with a comfortable friendly vibe, clean and close to everything!

Great vibe and location
This house was perfect for our short stay. Close access to different beaches and ocean glimpses. It’s got a nice beach holiday atmosphere and a good layout.
We would recommend this place, though the lounge furniture and some of the mattresses have seen better days.
We enjoyed our stay at Eleanor, it was clean & very comfortable. The kitchen was very good and made it easy to make our meals in. The view from the balcony and sea breeze were a welcome relief from the hot weather.
Ideally positioned between the two beaches and the lake.
This is our second stay at Eleanor. We love the through ventilation, the airy feel of being among the birds, the clever architectural details and the well fitted kitchen. We'll definitely be back.
