Escape @Culburra Absolute Beach Front -private access / Amazing Views / Luxury


Escape is a truly amazing holiday home - the best we have ever stayed in "Jane G Jan 2023
“Escape is our number one choice for staying in Culburra "Belinda"
Winner of 6 South Coast Tourism and Stayz Awards
Luxury Designer Beach House, absolute beachfront, amazing views, huge deck, huge new cabana on the deck, open fire, north facing, lovely flat lawn area, multi award winning holiday home. We have direct, private access to the safe swimming, south end of Culburra Beach near Tilbury Cove.
Escape is one of the rarest of gems on the east coast - faces due north and right on the beach in the premier "dress circle " of Culburra - located at the superior safe (patrolled in summer) swimming south end of Culburra Beach near Tilbury Cove.
Our calendar is always accurate and up to date.
Escape is the perfect holiday home for families, groups of singles, couples and holidaying with your dog. We are located near many of the local wedding venues at Terara, Merribee, Nowra and Berry so the perfect base for guests and families.
Escape is not available for weddings or parties of any kind.

In summer Escape gets beautifully cool summer breezes so there is no need for any air conditioning. It is often 10 degrees cooler than inland. There are fans in the bedrooms.

DOG FRIENDLY – inside and out. Maximum of 2 dogs unless agreed with owner.Fully fenced, large front yard, (street side) secure side courtyard. The beach is always dog friendly and leash free at certain hours every day depending on the season. The backyard (beach side) is not fenced but we find our dogs to not stray far from the elevated lawn area (see photos) while we are around. Strictly no cats.



CULBURRA
Culburra is the quintessential Aussie beach side town
Culburra Beach is on your doorstep (literally) and Warrain Beach 5 minutes' walk. Both are surf beaches. My surfing sons tell me it's the perfect combination.
The "bowlo " is fabulous and we have a Woolies which is a large, well-stocked shop with long opening hours. They will home deliver - have your shopping waiting! There is also a fabulous new restaurant/coffee shop in the centre of town called The Little Snapper.


Culburra is nestled amongst some of the Shoalhaven's most beautiful countryside.
Near bye lake and Shoalhaven River for boating - 2 boat ramps.
Great fishing: beach and river, catch fish in front of the house.
Lovely beach and bushwalks nearby, Jervis Bay, National Parks, Kangaroo Valley, Berry, Milton, Abraham's Bosom. Book on local walks available at Escape which also gives information about dog friendly local walks.
The local attractions include Callala Beach a 15-minute drive away. Towards Currarong, you'll find many more secluded white sandy beaches including gorgeous Honeymoon Bay. Delicious seafood is available at Greenwell Point.
Great local fish and the best oysters in Australia from near bye Greenwell Point.
Visit fantastic local wineries and restaurants.
Oyster farms at Greenwell Point.
Dairy Farms - visit a Robotic dairy farm, great fun!
Golf; 3 courses nearby
Horse riding
Great for bike riding. Culburra is very flat and quiet, easy to ride to the headland at the end of the street, down to the lake, river, lighthouse and shops.
Children's playground with picnic facilities 5 mins up the road or accessed from beach via Tilbury Cove.
Surf school just up the road; arrange surf lessons, hire boards, wet suits, kayaks, paddle boards.
Jervis Bay is 15 min drive away.
Lake Woollumboola nearby is famous for its bird life.
We are 2.5 hours from Sydney and 3 hours from Canberra.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Rhynehart

Host profile image
We are an active, retired couple with a large family of children and grandchildren. Escape is our much loved, family beach house. We enjoy travelling, gardening, hiking and spending time with our family.
We are also puppy raisers for Guide Dogs NSW and our foster puppies love their holidays @Escape!

Why they chose this property

In Feb 2010 we went to Culburra to visit a friend for a coffee and bought a house! It was rundown and multi coloured but in arguably one of the best locations on the east coast of Australia. It faces due north, has its own direct beach access onto 3 kms of pristine south coast beach and has magnificent views all the way up the coast. We did our own Grand Design project, gutting the house, adding the huge deck and fitting it out with all new furniture and appliances. We have a great photo book of the "transformation of Escape " at the house. We have also won many national and state tourism awards.
We opened for guests in Jan 2011 and since then we have hosted over 500 guest groups receiving over 99% 5-star reviews. Many of our guests are regulars coming back year after year. We get a great deal of enjoyment from providing a great guest experience. We also frequently enjoy the house with our family and friends which I think gives it that unique family ambiance which is so often mentioned in our reviews.
We are new to the delights of the South Coast and continue to be delighted by its beauty and pristine nature.
It is just as fabulous in winter as in summer with its direct north aspect the house fills with sunshine while the open fire heats the whole house at night.
We have just completed a major renovation of Escape from June to Dec 2020. We have replaced the roof, all windows and doors, replaced and extended the deck and added a Cabana for shade and entertaining, repainted inside and out, added an En suite bathroom to the main bedroom and replaced most of the furniture. It looks terrific!

What makes this property unique

We stayed in many rental properties when our children were growing up and Escape is a "wish list " of all the things we'd have wanted in a rental house!
The most unique thing about Escape is its location -one of the best spots on the east coast -faces due north with direct beach access down the south safe swimming end of Culburra Beach. The views are amazing from all the living areas and the main bedroom.
We pride ourselves in providing an excellent, quality holiday experience. All the beds are comfortable with quality linen and towels, all the appliances are of good quality and in excellent working order, we have a full pantry and many extras which are not usually included in holiday letting properties. We are also pet friendly -it is rare to get such a quality property which allows pets both inside and out.
I think many of our reviews highlight the many special things about Escape.
We have won many National and regional tourism awards and display our awards proudly at the house!
