Shellback: Panoramic Ocean Views. Fast internet. Views of Wilsons Prom.
Set on 75 private acres with spectacular views of Wilson’s Promontory across the ocean, Shellback is the kind of place where you can truly escape from the world. Your only neighbour here will be the cows, sheep and native wildlife who have made Shellback their home. Hidden from the main road beyond a paddock, two dams and down a tree lined road-way, your surprisingly comfortable retreat awaits. The house and garden sits in an island surrounded by farmland. You’ll see cattle or sheep graze quietly around all sides of the house. A short walk across the paddock leads to the private nature reserve and walking trails. Shellback has all the creature comforts you need for a relaxing getaway with family and friends, including three French linen clad bedrooms, all with ocean views. There are three large decks. One to the north to maximise the Wilsons Prom and ocean views. One roofed deck that provides great views, shelter and couches to relax and BBQ. A third shade sail deck on the lake (dam) side is a shady spot surrounded by trees. We built the decks to draw guests outside and to take in the scenery and country sounds – there’s not a car to be heard or neighbours to be seen. One of our favourite pastimes at Shellback is cooking from scratch in the fully functional kitchen. Then chatting away the evening around the living room table with those dearest to us. A long weekend or a week away, the choice is yours but know that we have everything you need on hand for the most comfortable of stays. With lightning fast internet, it's also a great place to work from home. The owners of Shellback have dedicated the lower third of the property to wildlife conservation - several creeks meander through the bushland and walking tracks have been cut, so there is plenty of exploring to do without leaving the property. If you’re lucky, you’ll spot kangaroos, koalas, wombats and echidnas during your stay. A map of the trails will be provided to guide your exploration. It’s a 40-minute drive to Wilsons Promontory National Park, full of rugged charm and stunning secluded beaches. Many say it’s the most beautiful part of Victoria. It’s extraordinary, it has its own weather patterns which are a joy to watch from Shellback.
