Bacchus Escape, short walk to beach, pet friendly, suits couples or families

Bacchus is a pet friendly, two storey beach style home with views of the bay from the upstairs balcony and living area.

Property is less than 5 min walk to the Dunn Bay swimming beach and local coffee van. Enjoy a pleasant stroll along the foreshore to access the town centre with cafes, wine bars, restaurants, and other amenities.

The house has 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (with separate toilets), two separate living areas, a balcony upstairs, and a deck area downstairs. This is an ideal property for a group of friends or families.

Property provides ideal comfort for summer with air-conditioning units both upstairs and downstairs, a wood fire upstairs for winter (note: you need to bring your own fire starters and timber).

Back garden is accessible from downstairs living area and provides an uncover furnished deck with BBQ. The garden is fully enclosed, making it a safe area for children and pets.

Balcony is accessible from upstairs living/kitchen area and is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the view. External stairs provide easy access from the balcony to the garden areas. A gate across the top of balcony stairs secures access to the balcony area. Front yard offers undercover parking for cars and room to park a boat.

Convenient proximity to Dunsborough Bay boat ramp. It is a fantastic location to stay while you enjoy the local beach environment or explore the region’s internationally renowned wineries, boutique breweries, and the stunning coastline.

The location provides convenient access to walking and bike trails that lead to Castle Rock and Bunker Bay. A total of 4 parking bays are available. Undercover parking is available in the two separate single bay carports. Two more parking bays are available on the driveway area in front of the house.

Early check-in / late check-out available on request.

Linen fees include bed linen, bath towels, kitchen tea towels, and bed preparation. Please BYO beach towels, personnel toiletries, extra toilet paper, etc. as only a starter pack is provided.

Family house,close to beach and boat ramp in old Dunsborough

Quiet area in old Dunsborough. Only 5 min walk to boat ramp, playground, swimming beach and coffee van. The house was very well equipped with all that the 6 adults and 3 children needed. Lovely balcony to sit out on in the evening. All that we needed to know was sent to us and it was a very easy process of check in.

Great place for a short stopover

The house was ideal for five of us, as it had 5 separate bedrooms, and the large kitchen was great. The highlight was sitting out on the balcony watching the birds in the morning and looking out to the ocean. Magic :)

Great quick getaway with friends

My husband and I and 5 of our friends and our dogs stayed recently for two nights. It was ideal for three couple and two singles: plenty of space, great location close to the water and Dunsborough town, awesome upstairs entertaining area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hopefully will be back.

Girls Trip

Bacchus was perfect for our girl's trip, loved our stay here. The house is spacious (we all had our own room) and in a good location. The kitchen was well equipped and had plenty of utensils/crockery/glasses so no need to keep washing dishes! Was lovely to sit out on the deck upstairs for an afternoon drink! Would like to suggest mirrors in the bedrooms and also tissues provided and maybe a starter pack of kindling & firewood. We did buy the firewood as suggested but I think this could have been provided given the cost per night. The host, Rosa, responded to my emails very promptly. Would definitely book this place again.
