About this cottage rental

Currawong Cottage is nestled in the dunes, adjacent to the coastal reserve. Surrounded by native bush it is a haven for birds and wildlife. Perfect peace and seclusion with just the sound of the waves breaking, and only a short walk to the stair case leading down to the beach.
The cabin comprises a large well equipped country kitchen and living area, three bedrooms (one with a double bed and trundle, the other with a queen-sized bed, ensuite and ante-room), and a sleepout with a single bed and double bunk.
The main bathroom has a large old fashioned bathtub, with shower.
There are extensive verandahs and decks with a gas barbeque and outdoor dining areas. You can catch the morning sun or settle down with a book and an apple in the afternoon (after wearing the kids out on the beach.)
A lovely rustic feel, with all the comforts of home.

Local Attractions

Vivonne Bay has everything for the beach-lover. Situated on the mid-south coast, it offers both seclusion and proximity to the many attractions of the central and western end of the island. These include Flinder's Chase Conservation Park, Remarkable Rocks, Admiral's Arch, Kelly Hill Caves, Seal Bay, Raptor Domain (birds of prey & reptile displays not to be missed!), The Little Sahara (giant sand dunes), The Eucalyptus distillery, Clifford's Honey Farm (all your Ligurian honey needs & home-made honey ice-cream to die for!). Across to the North coast, easy Access to Stokes Bay with its secret beach and wonderful Rockpool Cafe. Stop at the Parndana wild life Park on the way.
Vivonne Bay, which has been voted Australia's best beach in a survey conducted by Sydney University, offers safe swimming, snorkelling, surfing, and fishing. Nestled between Vivonne Bay and Seal Bay Conservation Parks, Currawong Cottage is a bushwalker's or birdwatcher's paradise. The lovely sandy-bottomed Harriet River is a safe spot for a cool-off, a paddle and a safe splash-about for children. Canoes can be hired locally if you wish to explore further upstream.

Wild Life

Seals and dolphins are regular visitors to the bay, penguins can be seen near the jetty and in winter, you may be lucky enough to see a whale. Wallabies, possums, echidnas and heath goannas may be seen in the coastal reserve and around the beach houses. The beautiful coastal scrub land provides an ever changing display of wild flowers and a haven for birds. Vivonne Bay is an excellent base from which to explore the island, or just chill out, stay put and let the beautiful surroundings work their magic on you.

So grateful to the owner for a quick response and organising last minute accommodation at the end of the Easter weekend, after I messed up my original booking. The atmosphere of the place was wonderfully relaxing and had everything we needed for a perfect holiday. Thanks!

We enjoyed four days and three nights on the island for a family Easter retreat. The cottage is rustic and has all the basics covered for a family-centric holiday. We enjoyed daily walks to the beach and the proximity to activities like the sand duning and the raptor domain. The fittings and furnishings of the cottage and definitely a little DIY and well-worn but we enjoyed the break from tech and the 80s classic films in the dvd collection made for fun family viewing.

Fantastic cottage for our family get together. Location was great, house very comfortable, especially with 4 adults and 3 grandchildren under 6. Plenty of room and the family room and veranda much used. The kids (who are very adventurous) had plenty of room to play. The cottage had everything we needed.

This is an amazing property, nestled amongst the coastal heath right behind the beach. The house is full of character and clever design. All the family loved it and it worked very well for dogs too.

We loved the little cottage, which is perfectly located. In some aspects, the photos don’t do it justice. We appreciated the extras such as beach tents, some kitchen spices etc. We also appreciated the dog run, sensor light, fans, dog bowls, boogie board, games and more. We hope to return one day.
