Dunes Park Queenscliff
About this house rental
This comfortable beach house enjoys views of Swan Bay to the front and it is just minutes walk to the beach. Perfectly located in ‘The Narrows’ of Queenscliff, it is just a 1.5km walk into the historical Queenscliff township or an easy 3km bike ride on the bike trail to Point Lonsdale. This mid-century beach house has all the creature comforts you would expect, whilst preserving some of the original charm of its era. If you are looking for sleek, modern luxury you won’t find it here. Instead, you can enjoy a bona fide beach house where you can unwind and genuinely relax. True to the period, the front porch has been enclosed to create a sunroom which is the perfect place to sit of a morning and lose yourself in a good book. A massive kitchen accommodates more than one cook so food preparation becomes a social event. The large open plan dining and lounge create a central hub of activity. There is a sleepout for the kids as well as a mudroom to dump the sandy shoes and beach gear after a day at the beach. This is holidays as they used to be, kids, teens, pets, family and friends coming together to share food, conversation and the great outdoors. Walk just a few minutes for direct access to the beach. Sit and enjoy reflective hours watching the ships come in, or frolic with the kids on the sand and in the waves. To the right is the dog-friendly beach and to the left is the peaceful ‘humans only’ beach. A short stroll along the sand takes you to the patrolled beach for safe swimming for littlies. There is much to do in Queenscliff. Board the ferry to Sorrento and keep your eyes peeled for dolphins, or take the historical steam train to Drysdale. Enjoy leisurely cafe breakfasts, lunch by the water at the marina or picturesque drives to local wineries. Go cycling on the rail trail, surf at Point Lonsdale beach or stroll along the boardwalk or lovers lane. As the sun sets, light the bbq and enjoy a wine in the courtyard or a Pimms and lemonade if you want to relive the era. The house includes: Bedroom 1: Sleeps 2 (queen bed) Bedroom 2: Sleeps 2 (queen bed) Bedroom 3: Sleeps 2 (queen bed) Sleepout: Sleeps 3 (one king single and two single pull-out mattresses) Lounge: 36” LCD TV with USB port for movies Digital Radio, CD Player and Blue Tooth speaker to enjoy your own music from your device Reverse-cycle Aircon/Heating Board games, puzzles, cards etc for rainy afternoons Kitchen: Electric stove, oven, microwave and coffee maker (note: no dishwasher – kids do this) Bathroom: Shower, bath, separate toilet Other: Washing machine, dryer Outdoor tables & chairs plus gas BBQ Off street parking Assorted beach gear Bedding: pillows, doonas supplied Bed linen is not supplied You will need to bring: Bath towels, bath mat, hand towels, beach towels, doona covers, pillow cases, sheets, tea towels.

We absolutely loved our time in this charming house. For us the location was perfect with young kids, just a short walk to the beach. The kids also loved drawing with the chalk provided in the backyard and playing in the sunroom. The kitchen was very clean and functional. Only one thing we noticed was the house gets quite warm on the hot days, so a couple of pedestal fans for the bedrooms would have been great!
Thank you for having us Alison, we plan to book again!

Our family (including 2 dogs) stayed in this property for a week over summer. It had everything we needed and more. The location was great as it was within short walking distance to a beautiful all day off lead beach and the patrolled swimming beach. It was a lovely short walk into town (or the local cafe) giving us ample opportunity to ogle all the beautiful houses around Queenscliff.
The house was clean, the beds were comfortable and the shower was always hot. Would highly recommend.

Great sized house with good air conditioning. Good location though more of a short drive to the town rather than a walk - but easy stroll to the beach and Swan Bay. Few of the kitchen utensils were showing their age but plenty of stuff to use. Staying here was a retro experience right down to the 1970s phone and phone stand (had to explain to 10Y0 son how to use them!) - a good vibe!

A simple relaxing stay close to water & a lovely walk to the main town
Our experience was relaxing, cosy & comfortable enjoyed being so close to nice walking trails & dog beach. Loved the quaint & old school beach house thanks for a great stay : )

We really enjoyed our stay here. Accurate description of the home - retro and old school beach house, incredibly clean and comfortable for us as a couple and our dog. Great short stroll to a fantastic doggy beach which was the highlight for us. We usually prefer staying a little closer to town but it’s only a few minutes drive. Overall we had a really great stay!

Relaxed and Lay back holiday.
We had a fantastic break at Dunes Park in Queenscliff. A great location, walking the dog out the back gate to the beach and the view of Swan Bay at the front. Clean, comfortable and everything there we needed. It felt like a real beach holiday even though we were there in winter and we loved every moment. Hope to go back soon.
