Greens Beach Family Holiday Home

Our "shack" at Greens Beach is a most comfortable holiday home for our family of five (plus 2 dogs, and friends of course!) and we have tried to set it up for all the activities that the area offers (and we love!). It is 5 minutes walk to the beach (less if you have a Labrador or large water loving dog!), shop, golf club and tennis courts. We have provided most of the basics for these activities! It is a perfect spot to relax or a base to explore what the Tamar Valley has to offer! Our shack is what we have always dreamed of: BBQ's on the porch with views over the beach (BBQ is included), spacious areas for entertaining, both front and back of the house and we have provided a couple of sets of golf clubs (if you're a little more serious bring your own to fully enjoy what is a very good links style course), our family key to the tennis club and rackets, boogie boards and a small kayak. And yes, we are dog friendly (just please keep them off the furniture and beds); in fact, we have two fully enclosed dog runs (coming off the beach all dog owners will know why) and our backyard is fully enclosed. Please note there is an extra charge of $25 per stay with pets to cover a little extra cleaning time (please note if we find evidence of pets staying that we haven’t been notified about the charge will be $50; unfortunately this is for the small minority that want to try to save the $25 by not notifying us). We also expect any pet leavings around the yard to be picked up prior to check out. If there are any queries regarding this please let us know. We have a 3X3 shed at the front of the property, which is available for guest storage, along with housing activity items! That is enough about the place, but the location! Less than 15 minutes drive to Beauty Point and Beaconsfield with easy takeaways, great pub, cafe or restaurant meals on offer, the Beaconsfield Mine and heritage Centre, Seahorse and Platypus world within 10 minutes and of course the Tamar Valley wine route within 15 minutes drive of Greens Beach! All within 50 minutes drive of Launceston! The only caveat we have is that we have a small shed in the backyard that is for our storage, and a cupboard in the second bedroom that is used for cleaner storage. Other than that, we hope you enjoy the home and location as much as we do when we can get there! By the way; there is no Wifi or internet connection! This is very deliberate on our part; I am sure many of you will know why! The house is on tank water so we would greatly appreciate if long showers and excessive clothes laundering could be avoided. Everything except the back shed and the cleaners cupboard in the 2nd bedroom. We are a busy professional family with teenage children. This is the way we have set our "shack" up and we want our guests to enjoy it in peace, the same as we do. We expect our guests to look after the property as their own, but if there are any issues we are more than happy to take calls and we are normally less than an hour away for anything serious, and have a a number of people in the area that can assist if need be. Will keep this brief: - Close to beach. - 15 minutes to the Tamar Valley Wine Route. - 9 hole links style golf course within 5 minutes walk - complimentary access to the tennis courts, where you can use the supplied tennis rackets and balls (it would be appreciated if you lose balls that you replace them). - National Park 5 minute drive or 30 minute walk (worth seeing). - Beaconsfield and Beauty Point within easy 15 minute drive with a number of very good options of takeaways and restaurants (just ask if you would like our opinions!). Where the house is - walk! Most local amenities and attractions are within 5 minutes walk. National park to the north is 5km walk but easy drive, and is well worth the drive (national park passes are available at the local shop) and the walk along the foreshore is very scenic and relaxing as well. Whilst we are pet friendly, unfortunately we won't accept cats due to an allergy in our family. Apologies to all those cat lovers! Our preferred communication is via Airbnb messages. It would be appreciated if you can ensure the Airbnb notifications are setup and that the emails aren't going to the junk folders!
