There are holiday homes, and then there are homes made for bringing everyone together.



Welcome to The Headland House, an incredible six-bedroom coastal escape at Barrack Point, sleeping up to 14 guests (maximum of 10 adults with the bunk room suitable for 4 children) and enjoying spectacular ocean views from its elevated position directly opposite the coastline.



Designed for big families, multigenerational holidays and long-overdue reunions, this is the kind of home where everyone can finally stay under one roof.

With ocean views from three of the six bedrooms, four bathrooms, generous entertaining spaces and Little Lake just a short walk away, The Headland House is an exceptional choice for families wanting space without sacrificing location.



Bring the grandparents, cousins, kids and friends. Come together, laugh, reconnect and make the sort of holiday memories you'll talk about for years.



DAY BOOKINGS: The Headland House may also be available for approved, low-key daytime gatherings of up to 25 people, such as kitchen teas, bridal showers, baby showers, milestone lunches and corporate Christmas celebrations. Imagine your team overlooking the ocean while a local private chef prepares and serves lunch from the home's beautiful kitchen. Strictly no parties.

Set in a spectacular position on Headland Parade at Barrack Point, The Headland House has been designed around its greatest asset, the ocean.



The home's expansive open-plan living, dining and kitchen area is flooded with natural light, with soaring ceilings and windows framing beautiful coastal views. Despite its size, the home retains a relaxed beach-house feel, making it just as comfortable for a family holiday as it is for a special gathering of generations. At the centre of the home is a large contemporary kitchen with an oversized island bench and generous seating, perfect for preparing breakfast for the whole family, laying out an afternoon grazing board or gathering around with a glass of wine while dinner is being prepared. The adjoining dining area has room for the group to sit together, while the spacious lounge provides plenty of room to relax without everyone feeling crowded.



Step outside and the ocean becomes the backdrop to your stay. The outdoor entertaining area and sun lounges look directly towards the water, creating a beautiful spot for a morning coffee, afternoon drinks or simply watching the changing colours of the coastline. Three of the home's six bedrooms enjoy ocean views, including rooms where you can wake up and see the blue water without even leaving your bed.



Families are particularly well catered for, with a dedicated bunk room for the kids, a cot and change table, multiple bathrooms, generous living spaces and plenty of room for different generations to spread out. The bathrooms continue the home's relaxed coastal style, with spacious walk-in showers and beautiful stone finishes, while one bathroom features a large freestanding bath perfect after a day spent swimming and exploring. Little Lake is particularly popular with families offering a sheltered place for a day beside the water, while the adjoining beach, Warilla Beach South is great for swimming and surfing.

Guest Access:

Guests have exclusive access to the property and its living and entertaining areas during their stay.



Self check-in is available for your convenience, with access information provided prior to arrival once all required check-in requirements have been completed.



Please note that our standard check-in time is 4:00 PM. Due to the size of The Headland House and the time required to thoroughly clean, prepare and inspect the property between guests, particularly during back-to-back bookings, the full changeover period is required. Where an earlier check-in can be accommodated, our team will happily advise you on the day.



Day Rates will not include use of bedrooms, terms and conditions apply.



The Neighborhood:

Barrack Point is one of the Shellharbour region's beautiful coastal pockets, positioned between the ocean, Little Lake and neighbouring Warilla and Shellharbour.



One of the greatest attractions of staying at The Headland House is being able to leave the car behind and enjoy the coastline on foot. Head across towards the water for a morning walk, wander down to Little Lake, take the kids for a swim or simply follow the coastline and enjoy the scenery.



Little Lake is particularly popular with families, offering a more sheltered place for a day beside the water, while nearby beaches give you plenty of options for swimming, surfing and enjoying the South Coast lifestyle.



The home also provides an excellent base for exploring Shellharbour Village, Shellharbour Marina (Shell Cove), Bass Point, Killalea and the wider Illawarra and South Coast.



Whether you're planning a summer family holiday, bringing several generations together for Christmas, celebrating a milestone or simply looking for somewhere big enough for everyone to reconnect, The Headland House puts you in an exceptional position to experience the area.



Getting Around:

A car is recommended for exploring the wider Shellharbour region; however, one of the highlights of The Headland House is its highly walkable coastal position.



Little Lake and the surrounding foreshore are within walking distance, while Warilla Beach and the surrounding coastal areas are easily accessible.



Shellharbour Village, Shell Cove Marina, waterfront dining, shopping and many of the region's major attractions are only a short drive away.
