About this property
Harkaway - charming cottage in central Byron Bay
Harkaway is a wonderfully restored original cottage located on Kingsley St, just a few minutes walk to Byron's main street and less than 10 minutes stroll to Byron's spectacular Main Beach. The property combines all the character and charm of an original cottage with all the modern conveniences you could wish for on your holiday away.
Perfect for family getaways, this charming cottage features 3 comfortable bedrooms: a Queen, a Double, and a third with 2 sets of bunks, accommodating 8 guests with ease. The 2 bathrooms include a relaxing bath in one. Polished timber floorboards run throughout, with ceiling fans in all rooms and reverse cycle air conditioning in both the main living area and kitchen, ensuring comfort in any season.
Unwind in the cosy lounge while enjoying the extensive complimentary DVD collection on the large 42" flat screen TV, or retreat to the master bedroom which features a second 32" TV with built-in DVD player. Complimentary Wi-Fi is provided for guests' convenience.
The spacious backyard features a gas BBQ, perfect for outdoor cooking during those balmy Byron evenings. The kitchen has been designed with the home chef in mind, well-stocked for cooking up a storm. Not in the mood to cook? An array of wonderful cafés and restaurants are just 100m away. This prime location means you can leave the car behind! There's 1 off-street parking space available, with 2-hour free street parking nearby.
Looking to relax after a morning at the beach? Between the dining room and kitchen sits a deck with sun lounges—ideal for enjoying your favourite book as the afternoon drifts away. Alternatively, try the fantastic daybed on the front porch.
Plase note, no beach towels are provided.

Very comfortable house within walking district to cinema, supermarket, shops and beach. Very well equipped kitchen, lovely all weather front veranda with daybed. Bad TV reception but really not there to watch tv so didn’t bother us. Would definitely recommend.
Fantastic house, and garden. Kitchen had everything. The front veranda was our favourite spot to sit and read.

Hassle-Free
This holiday house is very unusual as it is so well equipped! It made our holiday hassle-free.....could we suggest the only addition would be beach towels for those with airline weight restrictions!
