Harrys Pet Friendly Holiday House

Harry's House is a charming beach cottage in a fantastic and very convenient part of Nelson Bay. From this friendly and quiet street, you have your pick of beautiful beaches with the sparkling waters of Shoal Bay Beach just 400m one way and Little Beach only 950m in the other direction. There are plenty of dining options within a 1km walk too, including a choice of fine dining or the bar and tapas over the water at Little Beach Boathouse, Wests Nelson Bay and many more, and the restaurants, pubs and cafes along Shoal Bay Foreshore are only slightly further away. Nelson Bay CBD and Marina are less than 2km away, and offer plenty of fun options including a Sunday market, cafes, restaurants, boutiques, entertainment and a range of fantastic land and water based activities.

Harry's House has everything you and your pet will need for a relaxing holiday in Port Stephens. The open plan living is thoughtfully styled to create a real beachside vibe, with driftwood coloured flooring and white washed furniture. If the sea breeze and twin ceiling fans in the main living area is not enough to beat the summer heat; Harry's House also boasts reverse cycle air-conditioning. The kitchen comes well equipped with a dishwasher, oven, microwave and fridge/freezer.

The main bedroom has a queen bed and ceiling fan, and the second bedroom has a queen bed and a ceiling fan. The third bedroom features a tri-bunk bed (single on top, double on bottom), flat screen TV and a second DVD player. The main bathroom cleverly incorporates the laundry and offers a glassed shower, toilet, washing machine and a dryer. (Please note that there is a small step from the lounge area down into the bathroom).

The grassed front yard with its white picket fence is a terrific and safe place for the kids to play in the cubby while you relax on the porch. Bask in the northern sunlight as you sit back and listen to the waves lapping at Shoal Bay. The covered rear deck offers an amazing alfresco entertaining space to host family and friends, with a 4-burner hooded BBQ, outdoor dining setting and retractable shade blinds. There is even a handy second toilet located off the deck and a hot and cold outdoor shower to rinse off the sand after a day at the beach.

Ample off-street parking is available for 3-4 cars, or even for your boat or jet ski.

Important Notes:
Linen is provided at this property. Guests will need to bring their own beach towels.
This property is pet friendly for one dog.
This property has steps at the front and the back from the deck.

Cute clean cottage minutes from the beach

The property has all you need for a quiet stay in Port Stephens The place was spotless and a little more than a block from the beach was perfect for early morning swims and a stroll to the cafes in Shoal Bay. The cottage has been well loves but perhaps is a little too small for a group of 5 adults but that is on us and not Harry’s mum and dad
