About this house rental

The Lobster is all about making memories. A renovated 70's a-frame that instantly transports you back to long simple beach days. A fantastic spot in a quiet street only minutes walk to Normy Beach and the Main street shops, cafes and pub. Leave the car at home and explore the beautiful seaside town by foot.

The Lobster is the perfect getaway for couples, friends or families sleeping up to 8 guests, and can be enjoyed at any time of the year.

OUTDOORS
The Lobster is set on a fully fenced in 800 square meter block with a huge lawn and deck where the kids and family dog can play. The property is dotted with a variety of fruit trees and we encourage you to enjoy the produce if you are lucky enough for them to be fruiting during your stay. There is also an outdoor bath to wallow in and an outdoor shower to rinse off in after your beach visit, both with hot and cold water.

We had the most loveliest stay at The Lobster house. Everything about the place was exactly what we wanted. The house was gorgeous, all the things you could want for a holiday away with the family. The backyard is beyond stunning and the location was perfect. My young kids had the best time playing in the backyard and cannot wait to go back to the "lobster house" Thanks Bronnie and family for the stay!

Our fourth stay at The Lobster was as relaxed as ever! Due to an unexpected heatwave we spent much more time in the outdoor bath than usual which was wonderful. We are looking forward to our next visit.

We couldn't have found a more lovely, well maintained property to stay at! Bronnie communicated all of the details and was a pleasure to talk to. The bedrooms & living area are relaxing, lovely soft couches and beds. Loved playing the fun board games provided and outdoor quoits on the soft grass. There's even an outdoor bath/shower with hot water after coming back from a day on the beach! Make sure you spend some time sitting on the large back deck while parrots, willywag tales and family birds move about the gardens. Can't wait to stay again!

It was just perfect size for our small family. Clean and cozy, beautiful garden and our 3yo enjoyed the cubby house and sand pit so much. So close to the Normanville town center and beach, yet so quiet in the night. Beautiful night sky. Pip was so easy to communicate too. We would love to visit again and 10/10 recommend to other people. Thank you!

5 stars for the lobster house! My partner doggo and I were looking for a little weekend getaway and the lobster house was perfect! Nice and bright and warm. This winter has been freezing and we were toasty the whole time. Overlooking a lush green garden, the fields and sand hills and super close to the Main Street, we didn’t want to leave. Lobster house is the perfect amount of 70’s kitsch versus modern comforts. We will be back. Thanks so much for having us pip!

When we go away we want to take as little as possible so to have linen was a huge bonus! We made the decision to go away the night before and the communication was fast and helpful. Beautiful garden areas for kids and dog. Comfy beds and pillows. We were only in the house 10mins before working out when we could come back again! Would definitely recommend this place to anyone!

Our third stay at The Lobster was full of surprise and delight. Our daughter loved playing cafe in the new cubby house and spent hours in the sandpit building castles. We saw crabs in the ocean and relaxed in the garden tub as always! Thanks Pip and Graham for continuing to create a special sanctuary for families to enjoy!

Upon arrival, the character of this property was immediately apparent. The children took over the upstairs bedrooms and really valued the outlook. Downstairs was a great space for relaxing as a family. The highlight for us was the outdoor space, with a beautiful bird-attracting garden, which we enjoyed sitting in for our morning and afternoon coffees. The location warrants special mention, with the area being quiet and safe; the children would stroll into the bakery to pick up some treats, and we could be at beautiful beaches in 2 minutes by car.

Great experience from start to finish, beautiful garden setting to relax in. Had a little trouble with the cooktop and pans but that could be our inexperience with induction cooking. Had a great time touring the Fleurieu from Normanville and coming home to the Lobster.

The house has a really nice atmosphere & a lovely outlook over the front garden. We were there during very rough weather (severe weather warnings) but felt very comfortable inside watching the weather pass by. Convenient location too, easy walking distance to beach, shops & to look around.

Another lovely stay at The Lobster

Another lovely stay at The Lobster

The Lobster has now become my go to destination for rest and recharging. Another fabulous stay, couldn't ask for anything more. A beautiful home that is only outdone by the most gorgeous gardens that are excellently maintained. Situated a stones throw away from everything you could need...shops, restaurants, cafe's, beaches and walking trails. And the perfect place to stay if you want to bring your four-legged family members as well. Already planning my next stay!

The house is so cute, it felt like staying at a friend's house. I love the upstairs bedroom with its big wooden ceiling fan the most. The experience was so peaceful, with a back deck that is great for yoga and sun bathing. We would love to come to the lobster for another restorative girls weekend. Thank you so much for having us!
