Pearly Shells

Whether it's summer or winter, Pearly Shells has something to offer. The ocean calls from across the road, the tides bringing fish, crabs and an ever changing light. Light a fire in the winter and gather round with friends, either inside or out, and watch the stars at night wheel across the sky. In summer stroll down to the beach for a swim, or just sit back and enjoy the retro mid-century vibe that we've created, and we love. Enjoy the simplicity and serenity of a rural shacktown by the sea. The space We’ve kept our laid back beach shack faithful to the original 1970s vibe of the building. Beach access is 50 metres away.

( Linen hire available upon request, $20 per person) James Well is a rural township in a sensitive natural environment. Due to this, we have developed House Rules to advise guests how to use less water, and how to take care when using the septic system. These are common sense rules that reflect the fact that we are not connected to city services such as a city water system or a city sewerage system. The rules are for the comfort and safety of guests, and also to protect the environment. Please enjoy the beautiful natural surroundings, and take care of the environment. Guest access Guests can access entire house, ( except for locked cupboards) and porch areas. No access to boat shed ( next to house) or back shed ( in backyard) Other things to note James Well township is on tank water only, so we ask our guests to respect the environment and not waste water. We have included some waterwise guidelines with our house rules, for the safety and comfort of guests . This is a “ shoes off” house - no shoes inside Please be aware that toilet and sewer is septic. DO NOT put sanitary items, nappies, wipes, harsh cleaning products, bleach or fats and oils into the toilet or drains.
