Other things to note
The host lives on site in the house upstairs, she is most often away, she is a busy musician and will sometimes be rehearsing so you might hear the sweet melodic sounds coming from upstairs. You may on the odd occasion hear muffled noises from the house above but mostly it's muted and doesn't disturb our guests. Occasionally there will be a gardner attending to the back yard garden.

Please note if you are booking for 2 guests and you would like extra linen for the sofa bed please request this at time of booking as there is an additional fee of just $50.

Also please note: There is construction taking place on the next street, which may cause some noise during the day. While this is outside our control, we want to be upfront so you can plan accordingly. Most guests find it manageable, and we provide earplugs for extra comfort!

Neighborhood highlights

Deriving its name from the Aboriginal word meaning ‘entrance to waters’, Nambucca Heads is a relaxed seaside town at the mouth of the Nambucca River. Natural beauty abounds, from the sparkling waters where dolphins play, to the pockets of rainforest that line the shore. The town also has a vibrant arts scene, typified by the colourful outdoor graffiti gallery known as the V-Wall.

Nambucca Heads is one of the most scenic areas to visit on the North Coast of NSW. With 23 kms of stunning coastline, there are beaches for families, for surfing, swimming, and fishing and the Nambucca River estuary is great for kayaking and canoeing.

For sweeping views of Nambucca beaches and beyond, outside of the unit, the Captain Cook Lookout above pretty Shelly Beach is a great vantage point for whale watching when majestic humpback whales migrate along the coast between May and November. In a beachside reserve at Shelly Beach are picnic tables and barbecue facilities, all walking distance from the unit.
