Cactus Cottage, family holiday house with large backyard 8 mins from Bosum Beach

We bought the cottage 35 years ago and called it Cactus Cottage as Cactus was the colour on the paint chart.

Three generations plus many many friends have enjoyed its charm. Now its time to share it with Travellers.

Cactus Cottage makes for a perfect family beach holiday with inside and outside shower and toilet, covered area for towels to dry overnight and a back lawn for ball games, reading, or long lunches.

Cactus Cottage is only minutes away from beautiful Currarong beaches.

Perfect beach house for an escape

Lee was an excellent host and we had lovely long weekend in the house. The kids enjoyed playing in the big garden, everything worked well and there were plenty of supplies of all the things we needed - kitchen items, towels etc. Would be happy to stay again and highly recommend to others!

Traditional beach shack

Great place if a little basic. Endless supply of linens was a plus but the place could do with some de-cluttering

Currarong originality

we loved staying at Currarong and enjoyed the homely/simple abode that had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. Probably not for everyone but if you like simplicity like us then you will enjoy the stay. Only double beds which again was fine for us

Comfy cottage with a great vibe

We enjoyed our stay in cactus cottage. The owner kindly left us freshly baked cookies. It has a lovely simple vibe, with a beautiful gum tree out the back. It’s quiet and comfortable. The outdoor shower was a winner. I would stay here again. Thanks for having us!

Cosy character cottage with a great back yard

We had a lovely week long stay at Cactus Cottage in October. The weather wasn’t the best but we made the most of it, and Lee’s place has plenty of board games and books to keep you occupied. Lee was a great host, very communicative and answered any questions we had immediately. There is everything you need for a great family holiday here, plus little extra touches of personality and love. It’s clear that this is a much loved family holiday home and we were delighted by it. We will be back soon!
