About this property

Thirty Two JW - Beachfront

Nestled amongst a small cluster of classic beach shacks, Thirty Two JW is a cute, cozy and comfortable 3 bedroom beach front property with no road in between (only 100m from water) located in the peaceful holiday destination of James Well on beautiful Yorke Peninsula.

The heart of the shack is its open-plan kitchen, dining, and lounge area, complete with a reverse cycle air conditioner. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need: electric oven/hotplates, microwave and a coffee machine for that essential cappuccino to kickstart your day. Plus, find all the crockery, cutlery, glassware, and cookware you need to whip up tasty meals.

There are plenty of DVD's to watch on the flat screen TV or you can play a game on the PS4. Games, books and magazines are also there for your enjoyment.

The compact bathroom features a shower and toilet (no bath).

Please be aware that guests are required to bring their own linen, including quilts, sheets, pillows, towels, tea towels, bath mats, beach towels, and hand towels. Quilts are supplied for the bunk bed only.


Pet Friendly

We have a dog who adores the beach so we understand how important it is for your pets to join in on the getaway fun. That's why we happily welcome pets at the shack.

We do ask that you bring your own dog bed with you and do not allow your furry companions on any of the furniture.


Location

James Well is renowned for its fishing and crabbing (any month with "R" in it is when you will have the most luck with the 'bluey's'). Crabbing equipment is available for your use in the shed.

Two minutes down the road is the Rogues Point boat ramp which is tidal and has a great permanent beach shelter which is perfect for the hot weather.

Ardrossan is only 6km away and provides a fantastic 7 day supermarket, 2 hotels, hospital, service station, golf course, tennis courts, ATM, fabulous bakery, laundromat, police station and hardware store so any supplies you may need are only a short drive away.

Leisurely walks on the beach, reading, relaxing or exploring all that Yorke Peninsula has to offer - you can do it all at James Well. An ideal location for a summer beach holiday or cosy winter getaway.

Thirty Two JW embodies the true essence of a 'shack'. It's not a luxurious beach house, so if that's what you're looking for, this may not be the right fit for you.

You can however experience the enjoyment of fishing, crabbing, swimming and exploring the surrounding areas, or just chilling at a very comfortable shack and enjoying the peace and tranquility that Thirty Two JW offers.

You should be aware that Thirty Two JW is in a rural area, so during your stay, you may encounter:
- Field mice
- Sandflies
If either of these would cause you any discomfort, we kindly suggest reconsidering booking this venue for your holiday.

A nice cozy place with a lot of helpful appliances to make your life very convenient

A clean place, with very close proximity to the beach (3 minute walk). Lots of household items and cooking wares that made our stay (with 3 kids) enjoyable and convenient. THe host was also helpful and provided a lot of information for us prior to the arrival.

Wonderful Beachfront shack

We had a wonderful stay, marvellous little shack near Adrossan. It was cozy, clean and well appointed. We went crabbing and did a little fishing. Our dog loved the sea and sand. The walks along the beach and the scenery were amazing. We will definitely return. Fantastic little getaway.

Lovely Beachside Shack.

Definitely a beautiful place to stay at such a reasonable price. Petfect location for us to do some travel and see the Yorke. Also loved how well equipped it is. Already planning when we'll be back. Only thing id note is some more regular cleaning as when tidying up for our departure we found alot of dust and rubbish under furniture and under beds etc.

Perfect!

We wanted a quiet getaway where we could just hang out and relax, and we got all that and more. The shack was perfect inside and out. Thanks for having the crabbing equipment available, that was heaps of fun. We couldn’t ask for more. Thank you 😊

Ocean view spectacular

This little shack was amazing, clean and tidy, clear instructions on arrival, enclosed and large backyard for your dogs to play and that ocean view is just spectacular. Communication from host was great and also allowing us to have another dog stay on such short notice. Thank you so much Sue, we really enjoyed our stay and definitely 10/10 for those who just want the shack ocean vibes. Definitely come back in the near future. Cheers Jo and famz.

Crab shack

On arrival had to clear the dog turds front and back. Tiny Bathroom area. No hot water in kitchen. Place needed cleaning before we even unpacked the car. Kitchen cupboards sticky. No skirting boards. Squeezed a queen in mai bedroom. The view was great. The Shack was not. Air con not working properly. If you want to go crabbing. Great. If you want somewhere nice to go for a couple of days. Stay away.

Special Memories

My partner & I stayed away with our beautiful old dog for his last weekend. He loved the beach and having the water walking distance was a perk. We visited family in the area years before with our dog, and this recent trip felt like old times together before he got sick, with the amazing sunsets & peaceful area. This shack will forever hold special memories with our beautiful boy who passed after being away. Thankyou Thirty Two JW, my partner & I will be sure to come back.
