Locality


During peak time the Venus Bay No. 1 Beach (which is the closest to the cottage) is patrolled by the local surf lifesaving club. The streets of Venus Bay are fairly flat and therefore great for bike
riding if guests want to bring their bikes. There is also a new bike track leading from Venus Bay along the Tarwin River to the next small town - Tarwin Lower.

Property


Captain's Cottage has been built to a 7 star energy rating. This includes double glazed windows, underfloor insulation, increased internal/external wall and ceiling insulation. It is also has a 3kw solar electricity system which should make it carbon neutral.

Local materials and labour were used wherever practical to minimise our carbon footprint.

The cottage is set on fully fenced corner block which makes it perfect for families and provides ample off street parking. Animal lovers may enjoy feeding the friendly resident magpies. Keep a look out for Eddie the Echinda who sometimes ventures by on the lookout for some tucker, or adventurous kangaroos who have been known to hop by on occasion
