About this property

Surfers Palace Torquay 1 min walk to beach

The Surfers Palace is a beautifully refurbished 2 bedroom beach cottage set in a delightfully private oasis. The cottage sleeps 4 very comfortably and can sleep 5. The property ideally suits romantic weekends or a family beach holiday. Completely self contained. Set at the rear of the main home. 1 minute stroll to Whites Beach and "centrally located" in beautiful Torquay.

With polished concrete floors throughout the downstairs offers a light and airy kitchen & dining; separate lounge includes 2 single beds and double French doors opening onto the wide and covered north westerly facing veranda. Perfect for alfresco dining.

Upstairs the large open plan bedroom is the perfect parents retreat and contains a Queen Bed, big comfy sofa, TV and fire place for cosy winter nights. You will feel like you are sleeping in the tree tops as the bedroom spills out onto a wide deck overlooking the peaceful gardens.

The property is set in a relaxed and established light filled garden with lots of lovely lawn.

The house sleeps 4 people comfortably. However very open plan with master bedroom & open plan lounge space has limited privacy.

For your comfort linen is provided however you do need to bring your own beach towels.

The property is fully fenced and therefore suitable for young children. Owners reside in the home at at front of the property and there is some shared garden.
Pets are not allowed.

Location

The "Surfers Palace" is 5 minute walk to some great Bars, Restaurants and Cafes and approximately 10 minutes walk from the centre of Torquay.

We suggest you leave your car behind and stroll along the beach to everything Torquay has to offer; including the iconic surf stores Rip Curl & Quiksilver, the many great cafes and restaurants on the Esplanade, Torquay.

Surfing and Mt Bike Adventure Packages

The owners of the property have over 20 year experience running the successful Eco-Adventure company Southern Exposure. Southern Exposure runs surfing, Mt biking and kayaking programs for approx. 10,000 students per year. They also run the Run Forrest Trail Run in the Otway Ranges.
