Orford Beach House - Orford.

This older style cottage with 2 bedrooms and sleeps 4 with direct access to the water. There is a bike track that runs along the river front of the property. The river meets the sea directly out front and easy access for kayaks. The cottage has every thing one would need for a little get away by the sea, with amazing views of Maria Island from the deck. You can just sit and relax while enjoying the views.
The house has one queen and one double bedrooms. There is a sunroom which gets lovely warm afternoon sun where one can sit and read books from the collection at the house.

The best thing was the view of Maria Island from the back deck and main bedroom window. Late check out is also appreciated. Ice cream shop (Sweets) across the road was excellent to discover just before closing time. The Orford Beach House is well set up and would be a great place to stay for a week. We only had two nights. I would come back again with more time next time.

This house was a step back in time to lazy, carefree days by the sea. Simple and refreshing. The property was spotlessly clean. The view out the back was beautiful

Lovely beach cottage with everything we needed for a two day stay. Enjoyed mornings and evenings on the deck overlooking the river, beach and Maria Island. Close to Orford and Triabunna for restaurants and access to Maria Island.

Relaxing

We enjoyed our stay at Julie’s house. We enjoyed the track along the river to go into Orford. Also, a good location to quickly get to the Maria Island ferry for a day trip. Lots of great spaces in the house for relaxing.

Great little shack

Great little shack, only thing is there is no fences the place is pet friendly so we took our 16 week old puppy but with no fences it’s was a little difficult and also difficult with a toddler as well, apart from that it’s was a great little place

Great family accommodation with direct water access

This is the second time we've stayed here. The house is older, but comfortable. It's a great place to stay with children, there is direct access to the river and a small beach. Magnificent view from the main bedroom and balcony. The main beach is only a short walk or ride. Having access to the canoes and a safe area to use them is a bonus for the children.
