About this cottage rental
The Cottage is the perfect location for you to relive those holidays of your past, start a new beach holiday tradition, or just pop in for a home away from home experience for a few days.
Wake up to the sound of the ocean in this funky 2 bedroom 1950's cottage, situated on the property where we live & is within metres of beautiful Kirby's Beach in Berrara. This convenient location caters to every level of activity; from lazing with a good book to swimming, surfing or snorkelling at the beach opposite. There are also many other local gems to explore; Berrara Lagoon is a short stroll away, take a leisurely 15 min walk to Swan Lake, or grab your bike or car and explore the many bush tracks in the local surrounds.
The Cottage can comfortably accommodate two adults & three children or two couples. The main bedroom holds one double size bed and the second bedroom holds a tri bunk bed (double bed with a single bunk on top). There is a new compact kitchen containing a fridge, microwave & 2 burner ceramic cooktop . The bathroom has had a beaut renovation that's in keeping with the retro feel & contains a shower and inside toilet. The external laundry also has an internal shower. Shared Gas BBQ facilities are also available & there is one designated car parking spot.

My husband and I had a pleasant stay. The cottage is small but clean & comfortable. It is located across the road from Kirby’s beach and within easy access to Berrara beach and the Cudmirrah cafe. There were so many choices of swimming, walking, bike riding to keep us busy or rest if we wished. The hosts were very welcoming.

Fantastic location close to beaches, rock platforms and bushwalks. Cottage has all that is needed to make meals and have a restful sleep. In addition there is an outside laundry and closeby line for wet swimmers and towels.

We enjoyed our weekend at Kirbys Cottage immensely! Lovely accommodation with all the facilities and what a fab shower..also the location is superb being just across the road from Kirbys Beach and in walking distance to the blessed Mermaid Rock Pools. At night we enjoyed hanging out in the garden having a BBQ, a chardy or 2 and welcoming the local kangaroos..thanks for having us dear Kim and Ross..all the very best

We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. It’s small, but super cute and had everything we needed. Anyone who likes a little heritage value, this cottage is for you! The town of Berarra is an absolute paradise, surrounded by beautiful waterways and bush land. And a flock of kangaroos reside in the streets there, which is quite a novelty. Be sure to visit the Cuddy Cafe, highly recommended. We also were invited to raid the fantastic vege garden of the property owners, and had a wonderfully fresh salad. The owners were very welcoming, as were the locals. I cannot recommend Berarra and Kirby’s Cottage highly enough.

Perfect short getaway
The property was all it advertised. 2 bedrooms 1 bathroom, kitchen and lounge room.
But the location should get more of a talk-up. We were able to go from the property and be on a lovely uncrowded beach in 30 seconds. Priceless.
Kim, was extremely helpful with places to go get fresh seafood. Brilliant host.

Lovely place right next to a gorgeous beach
Absolutely loved staying here! Being right next to Kirby’s beach was a lovely way to spend the morning and there are so many kangaroos around it’s a perfect little getaway. Kim is lovely and very accomodating, also the tiled floors are so cute we loved how the place is decorated. Couldn’t recommend more for a weekend away!

Last minute lucky us!
This cute little cottage was just perfect for a weekend stay. Very close to the beach, with a nice outdoor area and friendly kangaroos.
The hosts were available if needed, and even though the cottage is in the backyard, it didn't feel awkward.
We did have trouble connecting to the wifi though, so perhaps plan for an unplugged getaway :-)

Quaint and Cosy
A gorgeous little hideaway. Walking distance to Swan Lake or cross the road and 1min down a shady walkway to a fabulous beach.
The accommodation is clean, cute and the hosts are generous with their time and knowledge of the local area. Highly recommend 👌

Long weekend getaway
The Cottage was very cute, clean and conveniently located. Good enough for 4 adults, but with the space available, probably best suited for a couple. Right across the road is the beach and still quite close to surrounding tourist areas. Would recommend, especially if you'll be out and about most of your trip.

Lovely little cottage and great location
The cottage is very close to the beach. It’s nice and clean and the owner has provided everything we needed. The first aid kit was a life saver when my son injured his toe and needed some bandaids. We had kangaroos visiting the front yard and they were so friendly. The only down side is it’s a little small for a family. It would be perfect for a couple.
