About this space

This recently built straw bale cottage on its own large block is the ideal cozy base for nature lovers and adventurers. The small but very comfortable, eco-friendly space with beautiful views in almost every direction is also perfect as a romantic getaway or quiet retreat for travellers. This unique home was a labour of love built by your hosts. It has all the wonderful atmosphere that lime rendered straw bale creates - undulating walls and deep windows overlooking the bushland.

The space

We are located only a few minutes’ stroll from the top of Dempster Headland with breathtaking views over West Beach; the Rotary lookout and walks, and West Beach with its wonderful lagoons perfect for a dip or a surf. You will love the expansive inland views from the deck. It is the most wonderful spot to unwind while you watch the sun set over the bushland and horizon, while listening to the abundant birdlife. It is also perfect for stargazing on a clear night with the twinkling lights of the town below. You will find glimpses of the ocean from the deck and front and back of the property. We are located a 15 minute walk to the centre of town.

The cottage is equipped with all you will need to cook your own vegetarian/ vegan meals with a full kitchen and plant based cookbook collection and staples provided.

We also have a super comfy Koala mattress for the best night’s sleep.

We invite you to relax in our coastal sanctuary. You can follow the journey of how we built it on instagram: @ourstrawbalehome and watch and help us grow by sharing your suggestions on how we can improve. Please bear with us as the landscaping is still a work in progress.
