Culburra Sands – cosy cottage

Culburra Sands is a quaint holiday cottage located approximately 300 m from the golden sands of dog-friendly Culburra Beach.

Enjoy a relaxing holiday in a very comfortable house, with a good book in a comfy deck chair on the front verandah, or out the back under the tree-shaded pergola.

The house is perfect for just one or two couples or a small family.

Walk through the front door into the lounge, dining and recently renovated kitchen area.

The fully fenced backyard is lovely and green, great for kids and pets and has a covered BBQ area. It is a perfect place to relax while listening to the sound of the ocean. It's decked out with sun lounges, a large table with 6 chairs and a 4 burner hooded gas BBQ. The table tennis table and equipment in the garage will provide you with hours of fun.

The house is perfectly laid out all on one level with 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. Accommodation is available for 8 people on two queen beds and 2 singles, however, our dining area will seat 6 people only. We advise, although there is bedding for 8, that the house is comfortable for 6 people due to the seating arrangements. There is also a second toilet outdoors.

The kitchen includes a dishwasher and plenty of pots to help you to cook up a feast. Alternatively, the gas BBQ located under the pergola in the backyard is a great idea for evening family meals.

Location
Culburra Beach is a picturesque 2.5-hour drive from Sydney CBD and approx. 3 hours from Canberra.

Culburra Beach has remained non-commercial, and it's the perfect place to relax and unwind, but also offers you a variety of activities to everyone's needs.

Local Attractions and Activities
Just take your towel and stroll down the road, which will take you to the beach in less than 2 minutes. Enjoy the beach with swimming, surfing, body boarding, snorkelling, windsurfing or fishing.

Orient Point & Crookhaven Heads are also great spots for fishing. However, if you prefer to buy rather than catch the fish, at Greenwell Point, you can buy excellent seafood that comes straight off the boats.

If you enjoy bushwalking, Morton & Conjola National Parks are only a short drive away.

The local shops are only a few minutes' drive where you can do all your grocery shopping with Woolworths, a fresh bakery, a butcher and more. No need to travel to Nowra for your supplies, shop local!

Culburra Sands
A very quaint and compact beach house. It was well kitted out and only a 5 minute walking distance to the beach. Lovely safe yard for the kids and dog. Opposite a bike track into Culburra. Great place for a week or more by the beach.

Little piece of paradise
When you first enter this beautiful cute cottage you notice how homely it feels and that the intention of making you feel like home away from home hits the spot. At night sit in the family room and listen to the waves in the background while having a chat and discussing the days events at the beach! Culburra Beach is a piece of heaven! At night head out back and fire up the BBQ while you regale stories of the day and watch fur babies or children run around the beautiful backyard! In the morning sit outside and listen to the myriad of Australian birds singing. You want for nothing in this beautiful home and we will definitely be visiting again and again! Tanya

Cute Retro Beach Cottage
Loved staying at this 50's beach Cottage. Original 50's character with modern updates and retro/contemporary styling made it just my thing. Stayed over weekend with my 14yr old son and some of his friends. The double bunk room suited them well with easy walk to beach, table tennis setup, TV with selection of DVDs, wifi and updated well equipped kitchen for them to cook together kept them happy. I loved the comfy queen room with TV and lovely old fashioned lush garden. Will be back for sure!

Nice well equipped house in lovely Culburra
This place would be gorgeous in summer. The house has a good layout and has everything you need. The gardens are gorgeous (hammocks!) and there were scooters and boogy boards and a ping pong table and lots of games and books. If you stay in winter I’d recommend bringing lots of warm things because like many coast houses it’s not really built for cold weather. It was very cold and the windows in multiple rooms were prone to blowing open in the wind which didn’t help with the temperature. Booking through Stayz but they also have a separate company property manager which meant a few tiresome extra steps, filling multiple things out after already booking and paying and being required to give credit card to multiple parties which I don’t really like (sort of eliminates the benefit of using a site like this). Ungenerous checkin/checkout times (partially, I appreciate, because of covid, but 4pm checkin in winter means it’s not far off being dark before you get there!) made it a pretty expensive price for effectively one day - may be better value over a longer period. Still, we very much liked the house and for a longer stay and in better weather I think it would be delightful.

Great stay!
If you're looking for a lovely slow and restorative break, this house is a wonderful choice. We loved being so close to the beach for early morning and dusk walks, the local fresh seafood (especially oysters) is delicious, there are plenty of bush walks around and delicious restaurants in the surrounding area. The house was great! One of our party wanted some more heaters available in the house (we stayed in winter and they feel the cold easily) but that's the only constructive feedback I can offer :) Thanks for having us.

I will definitely not be back.
I have rented many properties in Culburra Beach and this one was probably the worst. The house, albeit tidy, was not clean. The flyscreens and front door were full of dust so once opened filled the house with black dirt. The property is old and pokey. The bath was filthy and it somehow filled with mosquitoes and moths even though the house had screens they did not close property. The outdoor setting was dirty as was the concrete paving. It had not been swept. The garden though full of trees and shrubs were overgrown and messy with long weeds and lots of dead tree branches. Neglect! The fear of snakes hiding in the garden rumble would certainly not be compatible with young children. Also, this property is on a very busy road. Horrible.

Beautiful homey cottage
Our stay here was perfect. The kids enjoyed the toys and scooter that was available there to use and I loved the choice of books to read. It was such a relaxing holiday. My only complaint is that the lounge choice could've been more comfortable. I'd definitely be back with our family and dog!
