Cosy Beach house within walking distance of beach, shops, park and tavern.

Welcome to our cosy beach house in the small quiet township of Middleton. If you are looking for 5 star accommodation, this may not be the place for you, but if you want basics, comfort, fun, relaxation, central location and added extras, then this is definitely for you.
The property comfortably sleeps 3 people, and there is a spare single mattress if required. 2 bedrooms in main house.
It is a short 200 metre walk to local beaches, Tavern, shops and cafes.
Pets welcome by negotiation.
The house has 2 bedrooms - one with a queen bed and one with a single bed.
The main house has split system air conditioning and overhead fans.
The kitchen has a small oven and fridge, microwave, and electric frying pan.
There is a tv and DVD player as well as record player and vinyl records for you to enjoy. Boogie boards and board games are available for entertainment.

Holiday at middleton
Lovely back garden for our whippet to enjoy. Would have liked a rail at steps by front entrance as we are in mid 70’s and I felt a bit insecure entering the place, otherwise lovely and peaceful. Thank you allowing us to stay. Will recommend to friends.🌹

This place is a gem. Big backyard for the doggies and rooms for the kids for lazy days playing board games after trips in the mornings and beach walks and bunny sightseeing at night. I can’t wait to stay here again.

Wonderful Stay
Amazing place to stay for a little get away with my dog. We absolutely loved the house which felt just like a home away from home. The location is perfect! Five minute walk down to the beach and only a few minutes walk to the Middleton Tavern. What more could you ask for. Upon arrival I notice some treats left for myself and my dog. Such a lovely gesture. We definitely hope to return one day. Thank you so much! xx

The property is cute and beachy. I would imagine gorgeous in summertime. However the weather was extremely unpleasant, cold, very windy with lots of driving rain. Unfortunately it was uncomfortably cold and noisy,
