Looking for a farmhouse feel on the coast? Need accommodation for a large group? Searching for some peace & quiet, a place to enjoy your family and or friends but still close to beaches, entertainment and places to eat. The Ranch consists of five large bedrooms, open plan living, situated on 25 acres which allows plenty of room to roam and explore. With a coastal farmhouse feel we are able to accommodate large families and social gatherings accommodating up to 14 people. We offer 5 large bedrooms all with air con. The large dining and lounge room opens up to a patio with a BBQ which is large enough to cook up a feast for all your family and friends. This area boast a beautiful tree lined grassy outlook which will allow you to sit back and listen to the sounds of nature. Lush landscaping frames the area, while strings of festoon lights overhead add a magical touch as night falls. This inviting space is perfect for roasting marshmallows, sharing stories, or simply enjoying the serene ambiance of a crackling fire under the stars.
I am a mum of four and we live locally. I enjoy spending time with my family, working out & walking my dog Tessa.
