Barwon Heads

With its Australian name, Barwon Heads epitomises the beach retreat of the southern shore. Located directly opposite the dunes, it is only a hop, skip and jump to the miles of Camber’s sandy beach. This property has undergone a complete revamp both externally and internally, over the past nine months (July 2024) and we are excited to welcome it back into the fold.

Inside the property

Barwon Heads oozes quality – from the comfy beds and linen to the stylish design. Entering the property there is a cloakroom for all your gear and a downstairs loo. Off the hallway the sitting room has two sofas with log burner and Smart frame TV hidden in the French armoire, painted in soft muted colours from Zoffany throughout. Abundant bookcases and a plethora of games are provided to keep you entertained.

Beyond the sitting room to the rear of the property is a well-equipped kitchen with a double oven, microwave, induction hob, Miele fridge/freezer, Miele dishwasher, nutribullet and a Nespresso Vertuo coffee machine. There is also a large prep table – with French doors leading out onto the terrace. The dining room next door comfortably seats 8 also with French doors leading to the outdoor dining area. A utility room sits centrally, with Miele washing machine, Bosch tumble dryer and an extra large fridge to accommodate your supplies.

Outside the property

The stunning transformation of the garden at Barwon Heads has been beautifully created by local garden designer Wendy Smith. A coastal planting scheme, intermingles with an ancient apple tree, a trampoline (with safety net), and sunspot with four sun loungers to grab those rays of sun. With a charcoal BBQ, and a large garden table for alfresco dining you can create many happy moments.

Up to 2 dogs are welcome and are charged at £30 per dog, per stay.

Parking for 3 cars, two (yes two) EV chargers can be made available on request (chargeable).

If you tire of the beach – Rye is a short drive with an abundance of independent shops, great pubs, cafes and boozy boltholes; wander the cobbled streets and soak up the history. Local sporting and cultural activities in the area mean you will never be at a loss for something to do.
