The garage has been converted into a games room, with a billiard table, table tennis table, dart board & comfy couches. There is also a basket ball hoop & lots of other sporting equipment supplied.

Take you pick of dining options. In the lovely bright meals room, under cover outside, or in the sunshine on the upstairs deck.

If you plan on bring a dog or cat (we can accommodate them as long as long as they stay outside in the yard) and please ensure all droppings are collected before you leave our property. We strickly request no pets to be allowed inside the house at any stage.

Enjoy the sun & sea air from the numerous decks complete with tables, chairs, sun lounges and couches.

Close (approx 7 minutes drive) to "The Dunes" golf course and "Eagle Ridge", as well as "Peninsula Hot Springs". Wineries are also within reach.

The house has recently been renovated with new floorboards downstairs, freshly painted inside/outside too, with new luxurious kitchen and some new furnishings to boot.

And you can feel free to utilise the fully equipped laundry including washer, dryer and laundry detergents.

I suggest all guests make a note of whether the Guests will bring their own OR require me/the host to supply all the bed linen/bath & beach towels. But please allow for an additional surcharge of $595 for linen/towels, if you prefer the owner to provide temporary use and then dry clean them all afterwards too. Otherwise, we would prefer that guests all bring their own linen/towels. Ie/ (x5 queen size fitted/flat sheets, x1 double bed, x4 single bed & all pillow cases too. Plus 16 white bath towels & x16 beach towels for your temporary use).

I just prefer to know upfront which is preferable by the guest (ie guest or host to supply all linen/towels). As each guest is different and there may be additional costs and time needed for cleaning & linen/towel setup too. Hence, please advise upfront which you prefer?

Great Holiday
The block is great, fully enclosed and lots of space for kids and dogs to run around and to spread out the bikes and beach equipment we brought along. We enjoyed a fire in the fire pit one night, another night had a lovely dinner on the spacious upstairs deck. The well equipped kitchen made cooking for our large family easy. Location is ideal, so close to beach, easy stroll to cafes, pier, local skate park and oval. Host was very easy to communicate with and very helpful. Thanks for sharing your house.

The perfect house and location for a large group!
Spent a lovely week in Rye at this wonderful house! We were 4 families totalling 14 (8 Adults and 6 Teens) but never felt on top of each other. The entire house was spacious, well appointed and decorated tastefully. Lots of bedrooms, large kitchen, dining and living areas, not to mention the converted garage into games room that both adults and teens loved. A real feeling of living at the beach was felt throughout the entire property. So close to everything as well. Beach, shops, walking paths, you name it, we could access it! Nick and Pam were great to deal with. The house had everything we needed to enjoy our stay and felt like home. Thank you from all 4 families!!!
