Boyds Beach House - Beachfront, Dog Friendly, Fireplace, Free wifi

Beachfront property with fireplace, bath, free wifi and foxtel - linen provided!
BOYD'S BEACH HOUSE:

One of the most unique absolute beachfront properties on the NSW South Coast. Once home to famed Australian artist Arthur Boyd and his family. You will enjoy direct Culburra Beach access from the property. Immerse yourself in the natural beauty and serenity of this stunning and well-appointed slice of South Coast heaven. Surfing, whale watching, fishing, exploring, cooking, long walks on the beach, painting or simply do nothing and unwinding, Boyd’s Beach House is one of a kind.

It is not hard to see how Arthur found the inspiration for his stunning landscape pieces when you soak in the views of the Shoalhaven from either the top floor, the beachside deck or the “lounge platform” perched on top of the dunes overlooking the beach.

Whether you are coming as a family, couples or for a romantic weekend escape, Boyd’s Beach House is the perfect, secluded get away all year round. Your home away from home. Quality of experience is what we pride ourselves on and this architect-designed property has been furnished with your comfort and convenience front of mind. Simply step inside, make yourself at home and enjoy the serenity.

Culburra Beach is a dog friendly beach. We are therefore a pet friendly property. Bring your four-legged friend and enjoy kms of unspoilt sand to run and play on. Please note: The sandy path to the beach can be a little steep for those who are not as agile.

With 3 queen beds across three separate bedrooms there is room for up to 6 guests. The house is split level with decks off each floor and a number of stairs between each level. The master bedroom has a private ensuite. There is a large open plan living with vaulted ceilings and an abundance of natural light. For the colder nights, enjoy our wood burning slow combustion fire with a good book and a bottle of red.

The kitchen is well appointed with dinnerware, stainless steel pots and pans, sharp knives and glassware. Grab some of the South Coast’s fresh local produce and cook up a storm.

Just under 2 hours out of Sydney and with the convenience of Nowra 15min away, Culburra is the ideal weekend or holiday escape.

Not so toddler friendly
Firstly, the weather was really terrible and there was no outside shelter. The property was clean however a lot of the surfaces were tacky due to cleaning products, this was particularly so for the stair railings. We did not want for anything the property is very well supplied with everything you could need; only departure from this was the lack of easily accessed FTA television on the upstairs television, Everything else was available but we like to watch the news on ABC and SBS. Another thing missing was any information about the area; also a bird guide would have been good. Thank you for the book about Arthur Boyd and the children's books which were well used. Plenty of games as well. The coffee pod situation was also tricky as your house guide says to use Caffitaly system however this brand does not fit. The Coffee machine will take Vittoria Espressotoria System only. The ensuite shower is extremely difficult to adjust not sure what you can do about that. the top toilet was not flushing as you know but really that was not a problem after we were coached on the alternative flushing method. Also we could have done with the charging cables for the speakers which we enjoyed briefly. Please check the lights in the master bedroom the bedside nearest the stairs has a faulty cord which wobbles on and off and a number of globes need replacement throughout the house. It is a great outdoor property with lots of facilities in the yard for the right weather and for older kids

Overall experience
The property was clean and very well appointed. We would have liked to have had more time there, but unfortunately that wasn't possible. Some severe storms in the region on the Friday afternoon resulted in minor water ingestion from roof leaks and possible hail damage to the clear overhead panels in the house, but that didn't spoil our stay; it merely reduced our beach and outdoor experiences. The check-in experience however marred our stay, with 7 fruitless attempts to log into the Stayz website along with an attempted password reset before finally giving up and phoning the property owner directly. He couldn't have been more helpful, preventing what could have been a family calamity. It's highly unlikely that we'll be using the Stayz website again.

An Amazing Beach House
Just a sensational house to holiday in. Nothing but good things to say. Very generously appointed with everything you'll need to get relaxing. It's a funky little retreat that reminds you to slow down. Had one minor issue & Steve was on it in a flash, great stuff. Welcome basket was a bonus! And speaking of bonuses, it's pet friendly, so Penny the dalmatian also had a blast. Highly recommend this property.

What should have been...
This property was very tired, run down, dirty and unsafe. There were cobwebs everywhere, there was a hole in a balcony floor, the BBQ was uncleaned & the light above BBQ did not work, the main rubbish bin was found down the road, only 2 used toilet rolls were provided, we had a tiny ensuite with very finniky water pressures and more. The photos shown in the web site do not represent the correct state of the house. Needless to say, we won't be going back.

Fantastic family and pet friendly holiday house
Great location and lots of space. Easy walk to the beach, breathtaking views from the upper sun-room and from the top of the backyard (near the crest of the hill). Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well equipped with everything you need for a short of long stay. All bedrooms had ceiling fans to assist with a good night sleep on a hot summer evening. Lots of interesting sites to visit in the local area - or just relax in the lovely backyard well equipped with outdoor umbrellas and relaxing places to sit.

Perfect location
The house is in the dunes and it was lovely getting up and accessing the beach for a pre breakfast walk. House has a nice beachy/relaxed feel to it. Communication with owners was prompt and they left a very nice welcome pack for us. Bonus for us was to be able to take our dog. Garden is not fenced but our dog is not an escaper so it was not an issue. There are various areas where you can relax on a chaise longue and enjoy the views and sound of waves crashing. Very relaxing week-end

Perfect Location
First off I really appreciate being able to bring my little dog here! He doesn't do well in boarding so it means we both get to have a holiday.I loved the art work in the house, the bright coloured, happy towels & linen & it being right on the beach. Several reviews state it's a bit inaccessible due to the stairs. There are 6 steps to the front door & on this level are 2 bedrooms & a bathroom, then 8 steps up to the living room area & kitchen which leads out to the back yard & beach which isn't too bad. I have injured my hip & managed, being on those 2 levels. You can access the house by walking around the side of the house, avoiding those initial 6 steps to the front door. What I struggled with were the bathrooms. The one on the entry level has a REALLY deep short insert tub with shower over it that I couldn't get into. I really think if it was renovated to become a wet room it would be a much more accessible house, for older people, small children & those with injuries or slight disabilities. The other bathroom is down a steep flight of 10 steps to the primary bedroom. The shower there,while a walk in, is tiny. I'm 155cm tall & weigh 52 kilos & I struggled to turn around comfortably in it so I do think converting the main entry bathroom into a wet room would definitely be a plus for large or tall people too. There are water views from the house up a spiral staircase in the main living area which I didn't attempt due to my injury.That's OK as there is a lovely area in the back yard with water views & from the living area to outside are no stairs & it's a fairly flattish area. Great house for younger couples, a group or younger families with older kids but probably not for tiny young kids, those who are older or have some sort of disability.Hope that helps.

Good spot
The location of the property is excellent. However, I have stayed at a number of beach front properties in the area (same price point or less) and in comparison this it is a little faded around the edges and the only direct sea view is up a nasty spiral staircase. Also in comparison to another recent rental in a similar price point, a cleaned set fire on arrival would enhance the stay.
