Jacqui and Peter’s house “Tarebarre” is an exceptional holiday away for families or indeed anyone or any group. The house is well set up for young children, but worked well for us with teenagers.
Jacqui and Peter have thoughtfully provided a range of family and holiday friendly items such as beach chairs, beach towels, picnic set, boogie board, telescope, binoculars, kids toys and books, games, dog bowl etc. The kitchen is well equipped to make cooking (and entertaining) easy. The two living areas work well if you need separate space, and of course the teenagers ( and adults) appreciated wifi and Netflix.
The views from the house are amazing north up the coast and down toward the surf club and surf beach of Scotts Head. We saw dozens of whales and appreciated the sunrise, starscapes and surf views. The bushwalk down the hill , while not accessible for everyone, was a good workout and beautiful way to start the day.
The house and yard are dog friendly and the dog beach proved a great outlet for our 2 dogs.
Scotts Head itself had a good little supermarket, excellent butcher and bakery; fish and chip/ takeaway shop; a number of coffee options as well as Club Scott for a night off cooking dinner. As we were there in midwinter is it likely there are dinner options in the peak season.
We were blessed with exceptional weather for a mid winter stay, however even if we had had wet or stormy weather we would have loved sitting in the warmth and looking out at the ocean. A fabulous place and well worth a short or long break here whatever time of year!
