The Bach

Our home is a little gem hidden behind gorgeous trees with a rope swing in the garden to keep the little ones entertained. The house itself is perfectly set up for a family with a lovely beach style and cosy feel. The entertaining deck is perfect for summer days with a breakfast bar that has bi-fold windows that open right up. Located on a quiet street with the oval and park just across the road it's an ideal spot. Barwon Heads town centre is a 15 minute walk whilst the beach is 20mins.



Our home has very comfortable beds and everything you should need for a perfect getaway.



The bedroom configuration is as follows:

x1 king

x1 queen

x2 singles

All linen and towels are included to ensure your stay is hassle free.



Fire Pit

We have a lovely fire-pit for those winters nights, BYO firewood which can be found at the local service station just a few minutes drive away.



Pets

We welcome pets to our property but expect you to clean after them and we ask you to bring own bed.

Fantastic getaway

Stayed here over a long weekend and loved the house and its location. Perfect for our family of 2 kids with plenty of space, a well appointed kitchen with lots of cookware, spacious bedrooms and a fab newly renovated bathroom. Lots of room outdoors, which our little dog enjoyed too. Overall a great experience and would highly recommend.

Comfortable and mostly well equipped beds very comfy. Near to everything. Walking distance to shops , cafes and beach. Goood parking off road and safely fenced yard for our furry family members. A wall heater in living would be a good addition as split system struggles to keep up in gristly nights. Will return

The Bach was easy to find. Plenty of OSP.We took our GSP plenty of outdoor spaces for him and was close to ample larger open spaces for ball play which was good to wear him out.Restaurants, shops and markets are walking distance as are many excellent coffee options.Some very pleasant happy hour ocean/river view options for afternoon drinks all walking distance.For those who run the Barwon River/Connewarre Game reserve/Ocean Grove track is an undulating 16-21 km run which i can highly recommend.The Bach is compact, cosy and well appointed.You will need to use AirPlay or Chrome Cast for digital TV channels(Apparently it’s a Barwon Heads thing!).Sally was very easy to contact and responded quickly to any queries.We had a great stay the Bach is also in a quiet area not much street traffic.
