About this property

Valley View Retreat - your quiet riverside escape

WELCOME. Our hideaway is not called Valley View Retreat for nothing.
Imagine waking to the sound of bellbirds in the bushland across the valley. Enjoy an early morning coffee on the deck as the sun turn the leaves in the bushland to gold, or perhaps sip, wrapped in a blanket, as you watch the frost whiten the pastures below you. (Grazing cows have likely already attracted your attention.) Later you can explore the nearby villages and beaches, or launch your kayak onto the mirror surface of the Tuross River, a stone's throw from the house. And each evening, after a day of just relaxing or being super active, return and enjoy drinks on the verandah as the sun sets, and later curl up by the fire with a good book. Simple pleasures. Peaceful retreat.

LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION
Valley View Retreat is situated in a secluded picturesque valley with magnificent mountain views but with easy access to the main road. It is set on 16.5 acres with about 450 m of Tuross River frontage and an adjacent dirt boat ramp. There are a number of lakes in close proximity and the beautiful beaches of Potato Point and Tuross Head are a short 12 minute drive. The combination of river, lake and beaches offer opportunities for all water activities including swimming, surfing, boating, kayaking and fishing.

There is a single bathroom with separate toilet. The house uses tank water and a septic system.

Lovely retreat, close to everything you need
We had a lovely time, so quiet and peaceful just outside of Bodalla, but close enough to nearby towns and beaches to be convenient. The house and property were really well kept and a perfect size for our family of 4.

Beautiful
Everything about the house was perfect and exactly as advertised. Extremely clean with convenient kitchen. Location is wonderful- feels remote but so close to some wonderful little towns. We enjoyed afternoons on the deck watching the sun set.

About the host

Hosted by Kevin

Host profile image
I grew up in Sydney and then moved to Wagga Wagga for short-term employment of up to 5 years but stayed for 31 years. My wife and I then moved to the South Coast of New South Wales.

Why they chose this property

Our family had been searching unsuccessfully for a river-frontage rural property for some time, when our agent informed us that he expected a property to come on the market that would meet our dream. A few months later, we had a phone call stating that he had the property on his books and that we should not delay an inspection. Next day we were on site and purchased then and there. The property also has a special meaning to me as my family holidayed in this area when I was a child and my parents took a photo from the old bridge in 1953 that just happened to include the property in the background. What are the chances!

What makes this property unique

With easy access from the main road, Valley View Retreat is situated on the side of a quiet, picturesque valley, with nearby bushland and mountain views. It is a riverfront property within easy driving distance of many unspoilt beaches.
