Retro Beach House on Pearl Beach

Contemporary, interior-designed coastal retreat located within walking distance of Pearl Beach on the NSW Central Coast, just 90-minutes drive north of Sydney.

Featuring comfortable furnishings, an eclectic collection of wall art and Kiwiana, this well-appointed holiday house is perfect for a beachside midweek break, weekend away with friends, couples escape, honeymoon, family holiday or writer’s retreat.

Walking distance from the beach, café, general store and the Sydney Morning Herald hatted restaurant, Pearls on the Beach. Close to nearby attractions including bushwalks, Bouddi National Park, Patonga and the Crommelin Native Arboretum.

Spacious beach property with everything you could need.

We had a lovely beach stay at the property- it was bigger than expected, well equipped and the styling was super cute. My son loved the basket of trains to play with. Dale was helpful was sorting things out for our stay. Definitely recommend

Annual treat retreat

We always book a week in Pearl at the beginning of the year to rest and reset. This is by far our favourite house. Everything you need, close to the beach and instant holiday feel from the moment you arrive. Thanks for hosting us again. We will be back!

We loved this gorgeous little beach house. Fun, colourful, comfortable, stylish and so well equipped-especially for cooking. I would have loved to hang there for a few more days. Great back yard to while away the day.

Anniversary Getaway

A great retro property exactly as shown on the website. We loved it. It is a lovely beach and was perfect for what we wanted. It was Australia Day weekend and the celebrations were family orientated on the beach. Pearl Beach is a quiet, friendly place - but no shops, cafes or bars.

Quiet and peaceful get away

This is a lovely little cottage to stay in, extremely neat and clean, well appointed, and the decor is delightful. A quick walk to the beach, cafe and restaurant. A quiet and peaceful location for a getaway or some serious hiking. I would recommend it to all.

An amazing stay

Everything from the moment we arrived was just perfect. The house is so well equipped with everything you need and just a couple of minutes walk from the beach where our dogs roamed happily and free. Check in was a breeze and communication with the host was outstanding. The two generous bedrooms allow to have time to yourself or if you prefer you can relax in the magnificent living room or yet again in the private backyard. Everything is kept immaculately. We can’t wait to be back and would absolutely recommend this place to anyone wanting to have a great time away.

Terrific!

Loved staying here ... has everything you could want on hand and in good working order apart from front bedroom light on the left facing the bed which would not turn on. A nuisance for reading in bed but not a deal breaker and sure to get replaced now I've mentioned it.

Beautiful home, very cosey. The rooms and the rest of the house were very clean and tidy. Check in was smooth, we really enjoyed our stay. The house has everything you need from blankets, beach towels, cups, plates, cutlery, games, cd player. Great attention to detail, with beautiful artistic vibe to it. Very close to pearl beach, you can just hear the waves from outside the house.
