3 By The Sea

Escape to beautiful Durras North, a hidden gem nestled within Murramarang National Park. This comfortable, modern air-conditioned beach house is literally a three minute walk to pristine Durras Lake and beach and features beautiful sea views. Kangaroos frequent the property (please don't touch or feed) along with many native bird species and assorted wildlife. Great for a short getaway, a perfect family holiday or to show overseas guests a unique slice of Australia. Relaxing and unforgettable.

The well-equipped kitchen contains a microwave oven, all cooking utensils, a coffee-pod machine and complimentary tea (bags), coffee (instant), salt and pepper, cooking oil etc Durras Lake is regarded as the best example of a pristine coastal lake in NSW and is located at the end of the street. The ocean is so close that you will go to sleep and wake up with the soothing sound of the sea. A gas BBQ and wood fire pit are located in the garden at the back of the property, along with a large outdoor table. This area is ideal for turning out the lights at night and star-gazing under the magnificent Milky Way. A truly unforgettable experience. The large undercover verandah deck is a favourite chill-out or dining spot. In migration season (basically June-December) you will regularly spot whales. Kangaroos are guaranteed at 3 By The Sea. Please do not approach or feed them...admire them from a distance. Unfortunately, because of the variety of vulnerable wildlife around the house pets are not permitted.
