The Pelican Shed was built for our family holidays. We needed something that was easy, lay back and child friendly. Our three children loved body boarding at long beach and finding crabs and fishing in the outlet so we found the perfect spot for our "shack". My sister from Studio3design in "Sydney" designed the Pelican Shed, which was then built in 1999. Our children (Emily, Harry and Tom) are now are teenagers and are often at the beach surfing or skim boarding.

Seagrass Cottage has been renovated it into the stylish, coastal inspired cottage that it is today. More recently we have added Driftwood to our group of retreats, which is located around the corner from the Pelican Shed.

Rob and I are farmers from Willalooka, which is nearby. We produce sheep, cattle, cereals, small seeds and lucerne hay. Rob is a cabinet maker by trade, so this has certainly helped with all the renovations. The artwork on show around the houses is evidence of my passion (and Emily's) for painting.

I hope you enjoy your time at our retreats as much as we have enjoyed renovating and holidaying in them ourselves.


Relax and enjoy
