Eyrie House: Gorgeous panoramics sea views | House in Skenes Creek North
4 Bedroom House in Skenes Creek North
Perched high in the Otways, just 5 mins from Skenes Creek beach (great surfing) and 11 mins from Apollo Bay, the Eyrie is a beautiful architect-designed split-level home overlooking the Southern Ocean, with waterfalls, walks, rainforest and views at every turn.
Hi! We are the hosts of the Eyrie. We would love to have you stay, experience our rainforest and waterfall walk, and completely relax with sunset over the Otways.
This is a very special place, so in your planning try to allow a few days to see and experience all that is here. The most common comment of previous guests is that their stay wasn't long enough (but we also understand the real world doesn't always allow for that).
So starting with the house: the Eyrie caters for up to eight guests very comfortably, but remains wonderfully cosy for just two. Every room features spectacular views, even the bathrooms!
The Eyrie is designed with two separate bedroom+bathroom areas: downstairs, two bedrooms (one with queen bed and ensuite, and one with two single beds), directly off the lounge; upstairs, two bedrooms (each with queen bed) separated by a large bathroom.
The living areas (lounge, dining, sitting, kitchen) downstairs have split system heating and air-conditioning, and your choice of open fire or efficient slow combustion stove, with a wood box metres away. There's a large lounge area with a modern flat screen internet-enabled TV and great views; an adjacent dining area with room for eight offers even better views over the Southern Ocean and coast.
The tasteful kitchen, featuring beautiful blackwood benches and doors, has all the facilities and equipment you need including microwave, electric oven, gas cook-top, full fridge/freezer, large dishwasher, toaster, etc. Next to the kitchen is a fully equipped laundry with washer and dryer.
There are two main outdoor areas: the large deck out to the sea-side has tables, chairs and that amazing view, with the land below dropping steeply away into a deep gully and then on out to the coast. The north facing spacious patio out the back, with a 6-burner BBQ/lid/side burner, picnic table and seats, gets the most sun and enjoys a protected garden setting.
The house is surrounded on all sides by lovely gardens. Plenty of parking is available.
On 27 acres, the Eyrie has a mix of rainforest and grazing land (we run some sheep here). There are many places to walk, enjoying the diverse views from the high grazing paddocks and then plunging into the forest along our forest stone pathway and viewing/absorbing our beautiful waterfall.
The Eyrie is very private. No one will disturb your stay, except perhaps the local wildlife - koalas, parakeets and rosellas, kookaburras, wallabies, and of course some resident sheep!
The Eyrie is warm in winter - a slow burner combustion heater does the job - and delightfuly cool in summer courtesy of sea breezes that flow up the valley (and of course split-system air-conditioning if required).
Despite the seclusion, you are connected (if you want!): high speed wireless broadband to all rooms, flat screen TVs, restaurants and shops 10 mins away.
Please note: we do have an external security camera in the entranceway above the dog kennel, to monitor the driveway.
