About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Private Beach Cottage

Peaceful and affordable accommodation with 360 degree views straight from your kitchen, bedroom and living room to the ocean and country side. This is the second of 3 cottages on the property made from recycled materials. We have tried to used as much second hand, upcyled or recycled stuff as possible to save it going to the tip.
About a 20 min walk to your very own beach this stretch of coast is well known for great fishing and surfing. Or you can just sit and listen to waves roll in. You can bring along you best friend if they can handle no fences and love the ocean. This self contained cottage has everything you need for a relaxing break.

Great location but a bit basic
The host was excellent, we could not make our booked date, he had availability for our 1 night stay and allowed us to arrive 2 days later than booked with no additional charge. We had difficulty finding the property we had all the instructions which were very clear but there is no phone signal so we could not access them. The lack of phone signal and WiFi is a concern if there was an medical emergency. The property is a converted static caravan, unfortunately its all a bit tired especially the outside. The glass bottle dividing wall shown in the photos has gone. The other concern is water, with rain water for drinking. It is adequate accommodation in a remote location with stunning views. Could be so much better without much effort or cost.

A place for quiet contemplation
Incredible view and surroundings with a feeling of isolation, while at the same time having the assurance of the owners being located just down the hill.

So peaceful
We loved our stay here, out of the rush of the city but close enough for convenience to both geraldton and dongara. A short walk to a secluded beach, our doggo loved it! Ian (the host) is very helpful, top bloke 👍 plus our cabin had a great view of the ocean and sunsets. Would stay here again

Nice , peaceful cottage in a great spot
The cabin is simple and clean with all the amenities that you would need. Very peaceful location and good base to see the surrounding areas, including the history of Greenough and the sights of Geraldton and Dongara. We had a couple of minor hiccups, but the owner was easy to talk to and they got sorted quickly

Such a peaceful out of the way spot. Golden canola fields one way and the ocean the other way. Fabulous going to sleep with the sound of the waves. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Property is in a good location to access Geraldton, but not what I would call a beach cottage (20 min walk to beach), and not in great condition. Water smells bad and is not drinkable. Heat doesn’t work. Very rough dirt road to and from the property. It’s a bit above camping, but the stars are amazing.

A little bit upset with this reservation. When i booked on the website i was charged different price. the place is very nice and quiet, close from the beach. The accommodation is ok but is very tiny, old and cold inside. The heater doesn't work.
