Forty Paces - beautiful beach house

Situated in Culburra Beach, this lovely house for $363 per night is a fantastic choice for your next trip. Designer beach house, beautiful views, north facing, located on the best part of Culburra Beach with safe swimming, pet friendly, huge deck and garden... Forty Paces offers the perfect place to unwind in luxurious yet welcoming comfort. It has beeen lovingly renovated, impeccably styled and thoughtfully appointed, all with the guest in mind. It's the little things like the fireplace, the hot outdoor shower and the Nespresso coffee machine that make this house feel like a home. From the moment you walk in the door, the stunning water view, the salty air and the sound of the crashing waves, lets you know you're on holiday. Ideally positioned, facing north, it is a short stroll from the back gate to the patrolled flagged area or to the more sheltered Tilbury Cove.

With two bedrooms, two living areas and two bathrooms the house works perfectly for a family or friends. Having a separate space for the kids works brilliantly and is a rarity in a holiday house. Cleverly designed, Forty Paces is an extremely adaptable space that also suits those looking for a more intimate and romantic getaway. The large level fenced backyard is equally as exciting for the four legged family member as it is for the kids. The gardens have been designed with the prettiest of native plants that entice the incredible birdlife in the area, the Black Cockatoo a firm favourite. With front and rear decks, the house provides options for outdoor living depending on the weather. Once you've stayed at Forty Paces you'll want to come back, again and again and again.

Desperate to escape a gloomy Adelaide winter and a hectic work calendar I bundled my Border Collie, Gracie into the car and headed to Forty Paces collecting my mother from rural NSW along the way. Forty Paces was exactly the mid winter haven I desired. A beautiful property extremely well maintained and everything you need for a relaxing and comfortable stay at your finger tips. Bronwyn, the host was lovely to deal with right from the beginning of our booking. She went out of her way to make us feel welcome and comfortable. She showed genuine care that our long journey was safe. Gracie loved her daily walks on the pristine beach a mere stones throw from the back deck. A wonderful home to wile away the hours buried in a book or simply watching the water.

We honestly could not fault Forty Paces for the quintessential beach house holiday. The location and view are incredible, with the beach just a short stroll from the back gate. The big back yard was a huge win for both kids and dog, and the icing on the cake was whale watching from the deck. Everything has been thought of, and the house is well equipped and spotless. Bron was so lovely and amazing with all communication. We would love to stay here again in a heartbeat, what a special place.

The first thing you notice as you walk through Forty Paces is the perfect gap in the trees for an ocean view beyond. A spacious living area with comfy sofas and large dining table open to a deck where we spent loads of time listening to the waves and staring at the water. Being there 5 days in a nonpeak period incl a weekend, no one was around us so very quiet. The yard was great for our dogs to have a run and explore and they loved running along the sand off-leash. The water is hot, bed firm and kitchen well equipped. Actually there are so many thoughtful extras - beach umbrella, coffee machine with loads of pods, baby furniture, books, magazines, games, binoculars to name a few.

Wonderful stay
Spent a lovely and idyllic 4 nights at this property and left super relaxed. The property is very well fitted out lots of areas to kick back and read a good book loved the back deck hearing and seeing the ocean. My six month old German Shepard had a ball and came back very tired from all the beach plays. The beach access is so close walk out back gate and either direction beach stairs a minute away. Up the road less than five minutes walk coffee and takeaway shop as well. Bronwyn the owner was fantastic and contactable will definitely look forward to coming for another stay

Great stay - the house is warm, inviting and cosy.
Doesn't feel cold or uninviting like other holiday homes which is so nice. Really well furnished and when we arrived everything was perfect.
The house is so well stocked with books, games, fire wood, the kitchen is well stocked and they even have dog bowls for your pet!
The only downside for us that would impact returning agin - the sofa is incredibly uncomfortable. I did mention this and i was told its a feather sofa that requires to be reset but its more than that - it has no support and is lumpy and considering the rest of the house is great it really lets it down. We found the bed very hard (but it may suit others).
The garden was great our dog loved it. Apart from those two things i would have rated it 5 stars!

Forty Paces - just perfect
This house exceeded our expectations in many ways. Apart from the view, magnificent, followed by the easy access to the beach, literally forty paces away the house was great in every way. The casualness of the house makes you relax instantly, the beds are comfortable and the living space is generous in size with a sofa that encourages lounging around and big enough for everyone to get comfortable. We traveled with our two dogs and they loved the yard which was very safe and secure (fully fenced) and unlike other homes the dogs are allowed inside (except the bedrooms which was no issue for us) in fact they were so tired from running in the yard and the beach that they slept in the hallway area all night without stirring. Last but not least the kitchen is a dream and so well stocked, right down to the coffee making facilities with enough coffee capsules to last our entire stay, ice in the freezer, enough cooking implements to satisfy any keen cook. We will definitely be back and would absolutely recommend this house.

Forty Places proved to be the ideal property for our 'home away from home'.
From the moment we arrived we felt very comfortable at Forty Paces. My wife, myself and our two dogs (Cavalier, and Cavodle) loved the place. Ideally situated, comfortably furnished, well fenced with all of the standard things that you need in a kitchen and bathrooms. It was great not to have to go to the shops and buy, next time we won't need to pack much of the stuff that we usually do when staying away. Bronwyn has been more than helpful in meeting our particular needs and is very easy to do business with. We highly recommend Forty Paces to those looking for a comfortable stay, peace and quiet and a great beach.

Perfect!
We love Forty Paces - simple as that. From sitting on the beautiful deck looking at the ocean view to playing in the yard with the kids and the dogs to curling up on the lounge in front of the fire - this place is the perfect place for a long weekend. This is our second trip to Forty Paces and we loved it even more this time. The owner was great to deal with and the house was well equipped and sparkling clean. We can't wait to get back there.
