BAY OF FIRES SEACRET Beach House in private bush acreage, with ocean views

Your own piece of paradise. Bay of Fires Seacret is just what the doctor ordered if you are looking for a private retreat from the world. Seacret is set on 1.98 hectares of private bush land just 350 meters from the world famous Bay of Fires. A great beach house with 3 levels for your enjoyment, including numerous outdoor decks for alfresco living.

Walk up a few steps onto the main living level. Here you can enjoy a fantastic indoor/outdoor experience with bi-fold and sliding doors which open up nearly the whole living/dining area onto the surrounding decks. A large wood fire for cooler months, huge flat screen TV, comfortable couches, a solid wooden dining table, and open plan kitchen (complete with dishwasher, fridge, and Nespresso Pod coffee machine), all just perfect for enjoying the ambiance of the coastal bush. On this level there is a laundry, and shower room. You can even have a shower with the sliding doors open to the bush beyond. Walk out the many doors onto the large deck, which then steps down onto a second very expansive deck area.

Go up a level and you will find two bedrooms, both with water and bush views. The queen bedroom has sliding doors out onto its own patio. The second double bedroom has a small desk. Both have plenty of storage. This level includes a toilet and vanity basin.

Then take a few more steps up into the secluded master suite where you will find expansive bush and sea views, your own private deck, a queen bed, and an en-suite bathroom. High ceilings give a lovely open feeling

With plenty of parking for your vehicles, and just a short walk down to the beach. Everyone will have a great time holidaying at this unique property.
Make yourself comfortable in this vacation home, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony or patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a flat-screen television is provided for your entertainment.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Great location
We loved the location of this property close to beautiful beaches and attractions …The home was a great size with lots of outdoor sitting areas so peaceful and quiet …Bedrooms and Bathrooms were perfect …The kitchen / living area is a great size plenty of space ….The lounge seating and cushions needed a good clean noticed staining ….The kitchen had everything we needed and a good size ….The kitchen bench being timber just seemed unclean and the pantry could do with a good air out …We seen of tiny insects in the house a good spray fixed that ..Apart from that we loved our stay …Thank you 🙂

Back to nature.
Lovely two night stay in a quiet secluded bush setting listening to the surf on the beach. The house was large, clean and had everything we needed. The balcony was an ideal spot for a late afternoon drink and BBQ and only a short walk down the road to the surf beach. Will definitely stay there again.

The property looks better on the outside than inside. Quite a small kitchen, lounge dining. The couches quite uncomfortable. On the upside lots of outdoor decks and a 5 min walk to a magnificent beach. Jan the host was excellent.

Beautiful spot
A great little spot for a getaway/retreat, St Helens has plenty of options for food and supplies, and the Seacret house feels tucked away from it all. Internet can be patchy - but adds to the invitation to disconnect and slow down.

Great house in perfect location.
Jan’s house is in a wonderful location. Private but just a couple of minutes walk to the very beautiful beach at Binalong Bay. The house is lovely. Very well provisioned with excellent kitchen utensils. We had a great stay and would definitely recommend Jan’s secret beach house.

Great beach house in a fabulous location, just an easy stroll to the beach and the famous Bay of Fires boulder headlands. The township of Binalong Bay was also within easy access just a short walk along the beach.

Idyllic Seacret
Having stayed at Binalong Bay before, we were intrigued by the online profile of Seacret. It exceeded our expectations. An excellent property on a great piece of land, so close to the beach. Being only two, we rattled around a bit, but it would be great to go again with friends and not be in each other's way. At a slightly warmer time of year, the deck would be glorious. However, even inside, the super wood stove kept us nice and cosy. Being a fan of this area, I am seriously thinking of coming back to Seacret next year........just don't tell too many people.... shhhh!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Seacret, particularly the slow combustion wood fire (we stayed in late May, so the nights were chilly).
