About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Cheerful Beachside Shack
Our cheerful 3 bedroom home is all about the location! It's a one block stroll to the beautiful Fishermans beach or a 5 minute one into the cafes, restaurants and shops of Torquay. You really can park the car and not use it for a week! The home is moderate in size but can still host two families. The yard is all paved and secure so younger children can happily scoot or ride their bikes around. The outdoor entertaining area is sheltered from the coastal winds, perfect after a day at the beach!
If you're looking for a reasonably priced family holiday but in a prime location then this is it. It's not fancy but it's cosy and comfortable and has everything you'll need including games, books and a smart TV.
The home layout is as follows:
x1 queen (with ensuite)
x1 queen
x2 bunk beds
x1 family bathroom with bath
All linen and towels are provided to ensure you're stay is hassle free. BYO beach towels.
Entire home.
