About this property
Relax in the sounds of nature. Bush walks nearby and city life at your doorstep.
A beautiful, serene retreat where you don’t have to travel far to get away from it all.
This fully self-contained, extra-large studio features high ceilings, timber floors, and direct access to the yard with a large fire pit.
The entrance to the iconic Royal National Park bushwalking tracks is just a short stroll away.
Please note: There are two external flights of stairs leading down to the property.
It’s an easy walk to the local café (Jack Gray), convenience store, liquor shop, and takeaway options. Swallow Rock Reserve is only 500m away — a gorgeous spot to enjoy the Royal National Park views, fish, swim, picnic, BBQ or launch your boat.

A perfect place
This property was as good as it gets! Regardless of the length of your stay, this place is fully equipped with everything you could need. I stayed here for 5 weeks, and it was absolutely perfect. The accommodation itself was amazing, the location was very scenic and secluded, but only a 10-20 minute drive away from everything you can need or want, and Jes was a very hospitable and lovely host!

Hideaway with Perks
Very clean and peaceful, with perks such as salt and pepper grinders, olive oil and spices. There was a large selection of coffee and tea and a variety of cooking appliances . My favorite was the eggs provided by the owner from her chickens. After 2 months without any, they were wonderful. Jes was very responsive.
