About this property
Entire place
Back of the golf course cottage
Perfect for a family getaway, it is only 1.2km from the beach and pier. The walk to the beach is easy and flat and the shallow beach is a favourite of parents with young children. Once you return home, there is plenty of space to run around on for the kids, and you will be surprised of the quietness of the location. As the property backs onto the golf course it is only a short stroll to play that round of golf. There is also access to the internet for those who just can't seem to get away from being online.
It is the shortest of short drives to the local IGA and the coffee shop makes a fantastic hot breakfast and coffee. The charm of St Leonards is no better than after a hot breakfast at the coffee shop, and having a stroll along the beach and/or the pier with a coffee in hand.
The house can sleep up to 5 and has 2 bedrooms with bunks and queen beds. One room has been also set up with bunk beds to sleep up to 3 people (Bunk beds with single bed on top, double bed on the bottom and a roll out trundle bed). Some pillows and blankets are available, however you will need to supply your own sheets and towels. If you do feel the cold, it is also recommended to bring down your favourite doona. The Queen size bed is very comfortable and purchased new recently.
The bathroom maintains the charm of the age of the house, with a shower, toilet and sink. It is clean and comfortable and has been previously set up for the mobility impaired with a walk in shower with handles and no obstructions.
The lounge room is all old school charm and the perfect place to relax after a long or even slow day. It opens up to a dining room. A gas heater stands alone providing warmth and the impression of a safe log fire and air conditioner for those really warm days.
The kitchen also maintains the age of the house, and is clean and functional. It has everything the aspiring master chef needs after visiting the surrounding areas gourmet produce. It includes the basics like the fridge, microwave, kettles, toaster etc, but also the coffee machine for that morning cappuccino.
On your way out the back you will find the laundry to wash the towels etc. from a relaxing day at the beach.
