Timber & Tide | Beachside - Private - Unique - 8km to the city

Welcome to Timber & Tide, a peaceful beachfront guesthouse in a quiet coastal suburb just 8km from the CBD.

Wake to sea breezes and the sound of waves, then explore the walking and bike path right outside your door.

Enjoy a stylish bedroom with pitched ceilings, Balinese doors and garden views, a cosy reading loft, kitchenette and living area, plus an outdoor deck with glimpses of the ocean.

Local café, restaurant and general store are all within walking distance.

Timber & Tide is a private coastal retreat located directly across from the beach, offering a relaxed space to unwind and enjoy the sea breeze. The property is accessed from the rear of the main house and is completely separated by a private courtyard, creating a peaceful and private atmosphere.

Step into your own outdoor patio area, furnished for relaxing while enjoying tropical garden views, fresh sea air, and glimpses of the water. Inside, the open-plan living area features a comfortable couch, smart TV, dining table, and kitchenette, with the bathroom conveniently located just beyond.

The adjoining bedroom offers a comfortable queen-size bed, beautiful pitched ceilings, and a cosy coastal feel. For a little extra escape, climb the wooden ladder to the loft-style reading nook, the perfect spot to soak up the sunshine, enjoy a book, or simply listen to the ocean breeze.
