we love this because...
The sound of the birdlife surrounds this home and kookaburras, lorikeets and cockatoos love to perch on the balconied deck and eat out of our hand if we invite them to. We love the native bush surrounding the house, set high on a ridge in Mount Martha with glimpses of the ocean through the trees. And its only a stone's throw from Mount Martha golf course (golf anyone?).
Decorated with artefacts from Melanesia it is a fascinating interior, not to mention the interesting book collection where we spend hours browsing and reading.
We love a holiday to have that effortless living of indoor-outdoor.
Just like a resort, there are concertina doors that slide back to make the upper lounge and deck one complete room.
In summer the kids love the pool area and as they play all day, we lounge on the deck with a drink in hand and watch from a distance.
If the kids want something more adventurous, you could walk the 30 minutes to The Pillars, a small rock ledge that sits up out of the bay with cliffs that range from about one and a half to five metres ready to be jumped off into the blue ocean, its a popular spot so be warned!
For coffee, we choose Mr Curtis our favourite spot in the village (a 6-minute drive away or a 50-minute walk) and for dinner Volpino Pizzeria and Wine Bar, we always get a seat outside and watch the world go by with a glass of Pinot.
You're welcome! Enjoy

What fun! a new house to visit that lets four-legged friends like me sleep inside.
Yay! a garden with tall fences to keep me safe. Love the trees and bushes, there are lots of interesting smells. Are those possums in the trees?
And there's a special basket just for me. No way! What's in there? Ooh, ooh! a treat from PAWDINKUM. I LOVE THIS PLACE.

We loved our stay!
Was a really smooth process booking and the host was very responsive and easy to contact via email answering any questions we had. We had a wonderful stay with a 9 month old baby, big bonus that the house came equipped with a high chair and portacot, as well as being pet friendly accomodating for our dog. Extremely comfortable and clean house, the pool and spa were in great condition, we had a great couple of days at this property.

Great holiday house, unfortunately lots of minor maintenance jobs required. Aircon barely adequate.
Pool and outside area was lovely, quiet location, but not really walking distance to shops/restaurants. House very clean, comfy lounge etc. Loved the 2 seperate living areas as have teenages!

This property was clean and tidy, had all the features needed for a relaxing few days away from home. Big fenced yard, perfect for our fur baby, quiet location, and very well set up.

Beautiful fresh light filled house with cosy homely feel
Absolutely loved staying here with my partner for a little get away, tucked away in the country side of mount Martha it gives that element of peace and quiet and tranquility, the house is super stylish and spacious with large rumpus room downstairs, huge open living dining/kitchen upstairs with outdoor decking for a roomy entertaining space and experience, overall has everything you need. Also convenient as the property accommodates for pets which is fantastic! Generous backyard which is well kept 10/10 will be coming back to stay very soon.
