About this house rental
If it is peace and quiet you crave, then this is for you.
Tucked away on this large, lovely treed block, is a rustic three bedroom beach cottage.
The main bedroom has a queen size bed, with an 80cm LCD TV with DVD Player. Bedroom two has a queen size bed and the third bedroom has a double bed with a single bed bunk on top plus a single set of bunks. Altogether it sleeps 9 people.
The kitchen is compact and equipped for all your cooking or entertaining needs. It has one bathroom and a second toilet.
Cook a BBQ on the front veranda, or sit with a cuppa out the back and look over the tree tops. The house sits on the top of the block so it's a lovely outlook.
If relaxing is what you want, choose from the many books, movies or board games. There is something for everyone.
Coffee, a swim or a walk in the National Park
If coffee is your "Cup of Tea" or hitting the shops, then an easy 20 minute walk gets you into the main street of Sorrento for endless cappuccinos or shopping until you drop.
Both the ocean and bay beaches are close by.
Within metres to the National Park, the beautiful walking tracks are there for you to explore the wonderful coastline that is "The Penninsula". Walk to the Coppins Back Beach for a dip in the rock pool or another coffee at "All Smiles".

The place is well appointed, has all the facilities that we needed for our stay. Was such a delight to find that there were all the things you would need to prepare meals as far as condiments etc.
Cannot praise Jo enough for what was made available to us.
Looking forward to the next time we visit from the States.

My husband and two children spent a week at Southdown over the summer. It is a lovely little beach house set amongst the tea-trees. With a basketball hoop for the kids and plenty of space to roam and relax we all had a great time away. Diamond Beach is close by with rock pools and cliffs for the kids to explore. A great little beach house that is well equipped and we would highly recommend!

We had ten days in our little house on the hill and Loved it , the house had everything you need and not having wifi was actually really good for the kids! We have already re booked for next year

We just loved Southdown for our family Easter getaway. The care Jo has put into the property is second to none. The heater was on upon our rather chilly arrival and we immediately felt at home. The champagne chilling in the well stocked fridge with every condiment you could ask for was also a welcome touch. The property itself is very clean and cosy with comfy beds. It’s well stocked with many toys, board games, dvds, books and magazines. Tucking up on the front porch couch with a magazine and a coffee from the pod machine was lovely. The trees around the property also inspired many games for our little kids while my teen and partner played basketball. Our walks to nearby Diamond Bay and Sorrento back beach were stunning. We got to have quality downtime at Southdown and I will definitely be back. Thank you Jo for creating such a lovely getaway and for your exceptional care at each stage of the process.

The property was neat and clean, well equipped; it had most things you need for a comfortable stay. The property is in a terrific location only a 2-3 minute drive to Sorrento main town and it catered very well for the entire family, we loved it.

My teenage girls and I very much enjoyed our relaxing new year break at Southdown. The chilled bottle of bubbly 😊 and the starter kit of pantry items such as jams and condiments was much appreciated. We look forward to a return visit soon. Michael M

This was our second time at this lovely house. The adults and the 3 children (aged 11, 8 and 2) all loved it. A peaceful setting outside and every detail thought of inside. Owner responded to and fixed small problem immediately. Really appreciated the champagne on arrival, the generous supplies of household needs and the wonderful selection of toys, games, magazines and dvds. HIghly recommend this place. We'll certainly be back.

We had a lovely stay in Southdown recently. The home is well maintained and well equipped with everything you need for a relaxing holiday, including books, games and DVDs for all ages. Just a short walk to the walking trails, front beach and Sorrento shops. Our host, Jo was so welcoming and we will definitely look to come back again next year!

We were looking for a beach get away between the back beach and the bay and Southdown was the perfect find. Jo was very helpful and accommodating, the kitchen is amazingly well equipped including every spice, sauce or mustard you may need... if you have time for cooking. The bedrooms are well appointed and comfortable, outside dining area a hit with everyone. A definite find!
5.0 / 5.0
The house is well designed to be very relaxing. Even though it is not big, the outdoor areas make it much more than it seems. There is a gorgeous place to sit at any time of the day. And very well designed. Everything you could possibly need is in the kitchen and dvds and board games galore. We had Christmas there and our host Jo went the extra mile to put up a tree and even left us a gift under the tree! So many personal touches. I’d choose to stay in a place that’s as full of heart as this one any time. Thanks so much Jo. We had a very special time.

We could not recommend Southdown in Sorrento highly enough. It is great value for money, had everything we needed and was in a great location - close to the shops and a short drive to the beach. Jo is so incredibly helpful and even had toys available for our toddlers! The outdoor space is perfect to sit and relax, we spent most of our days sitting in the sun. We will definitely return - thanks Jo!
