About the host

Hosted by peter collell

Host profile image
We constructed this house together and raised two boys in it and currently live only 1km away and still enjoy the lifestyle this area has to offer. We have been doing short term rental with Dunescape Beach House since 2015 when we totally refurbished the house and prepared it for holiday makers.The house is in a unique location with national park over the road and only a short walk to the beach.

Why they chose this property

We were attracted to this block of land because of it being so close to the beach and also in a quiet location being at the top of a small rise and opposite National Park.

What makes this property unique

Together we designed and built Dunescape in 1997 . We have four different levels which allows for space and privacy with all the bedrooms being separate from one another .It has proven to be a great family home as well as for couples and with a fully enclosed yard making it very pet friendly.We are very pleased and proud of what we can now offer to guests to enjoy this house and the surrounding areas .
