Charlie's @ Hat Head

Charlie’s is a modern two-bedroom cottage designed for relaxation and rejuvenation. With a spacious lounge, a large, well-equipped kitchen, and an expansive patio, it’s the perfect retreat for a couple, two couples, or a small family. This exceptional getaway is a place you’ll want to return to year after year, making it a cherished part of your life.

Just steps from the property, a 250-step bush trail winds through serene dunes, opening up to a stunning 16-kilometre beach—a breathtaking escape waiting to be explored. In the opposite direction, a 500-step stroll leads you to a tidal creek, ideal for swimming, paddleboarding, or simply floating along to the shore.

One of the highlights of Charlie's is the heavenly outdoor shower. Perfect for rinsing off after a beach day, it becomes magical at night under a sky filled with sparkling stars. Watch for shooting stars—you’ll be amazed by how many you’ll see.

Charlie’s also offers practicality alongside its beauty. The property includes a secure single lockup garage with an additional bathroom for your convenience, plus two driveway spaces at the front to accommodate all your parking needs.

Discover the charm and tranquility of Charlie’s—a coastal sanctuary you’ll never want to leave.
