Summary:

NEW!



Lifestyle stay, hosted by LOCALA.



Welcome to The Oak House, a newly renovated, classic sandstone cottage, just 5 minutes from Mount Martha Beach and Village.



By day, light floods high gable ceilings and herringbone floors, flowing out to a wraparound verandah beneath a grand old oak. By night, fire up the BBQ and gather for dinner outdoors. Rally for table tennis, or head down to the village and beach.
