What makes Grass Trees Escape different?
The property is peaceful and secluded and set in 2.5 acres of bushland full of birds and kangaroos, yet you are only minutes away from beaches and all the wonderful activities that South West Rocks has to offer. There is another house, Tallow Wood Pavilion, making this property perfect for larger families or friends getting away together.
Accommodation overview
There is one room with a queen-size bed and ensuite, another room with a queen-size bed and the third room has two single beds.
Tallow Wood Pavilion has one queen room and one with two king singles. There is a travel cot available if required.
All the rooms are light-filled, modern and comfortable.
Facilities overview
There are two bathrooms, aside from the ensuite, and large bright and airy living areas with high ceilings and polished floors. There is a large dining table, modern and well-equipped kitchen and two separate living areas, adding to the feeling of space.
The large decks look over the serene bushland and are a great place to have dinner or just curl up and read a book. They are covered to protect from the afternoon sun but are the perfect place to bask in the gentler morning light. The decks have gates, making them a safe place for smaller children to play.
All the furnishings are modern and high quality and there are plenty of magazines, games and books to keep you entertained,
Location
South West Rocks is about 5 hours drive north of Sydney along the Pacific Highway and about the same distance from the Gold Coast. It is about 45 mins drive from Port Macquarie and 80 minutes drive from Coffs Harbour… and right in the middle of the ‘Holiday Coast’. Grass Trees Escape is only five minutes from the heart of South West Rocks.
Suitable for children? Yes! Lots of things to keep kids busy, a highchair and safe, gated decks.
Suitable for pets? No
Wheelchair access? No, but suitable for those with limited mobility. Check for your needs when enquiring.
Perfect for?
Families, couples and larger groups, if you book Tallow Wood Pavilion as well.
Why stay longer?
Just to enjoy the peace and ‘get away from it all’ feeling. If you are looking for an active holiday you have the choice of the beaches as well as the Macleay River for swimming, surfing, kayaking, windsurfing, snorkelling and scuba diving.
Visit historic Trial Bay Gaol, go shopping, enjoy some of the great eateries, play golf, go whale watching… you will run out of time before you run out of things to do.
Why you wouldn’t stay longer?
Can’t think of any reason you would want to leave, except the need to return to real life.
