Normanville vacation home

The Lobster is all about making memories. A renovated 70's a-frame that instantly transports you back to long simple beach days. A fantastic spot in a quiet street only minutes walk to Normy Beach and the Main street shops, cafes and pub. Leave the car at home and explore the beautiful seaside town by foot.

The Lobster is the perfect getaway for couples, friends or families sleeping up to 8 guests, and can be enjoyed at any time of the year.

OUTDOORS
The Lobster is set on a fully fenced in 800 square meter block with a huge lawn and deck where the kids and family dog can play. The property is dotted with a variety of fruit trees and we encourage you to enjoy the produce if you are lucky enough for them to be fruiting during your stay.

CONFIGURATION
The Lobster is a double brick, two story home with 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and 2 toilets. The main living area features an open plan lounge room, dining and kitchen area capturing the garden views. The laundry and main bathroom lead from the kitchen area. One of the queen bedrooms is also down stairs. Upstairs leads to an extra toilet and two large bedrooms on either side of the landing, one with 2 bunks (4 single beds) and the other with a queen bed. The queen bedroom features a large private balcony with deck chairs and a 180 degree view of the garden, paddock, sand dunes and sea glimpses.

Our favourite place to retreat
Our fourth stay at The Lobster was as relaxed as ever! Due to an unexpected heatwave we spent much more time in the outdoor bath than usual which was wonderful. We are looking forward to our next visit.

Beautiful home away from home!
We couldn't have found a more lovely, well maintained property to stay at! Bronnie communicated all of the details and was a pleasure to talk to. The bedrooms & living area are relaxing, lovely soft couches and beds. Loved playing the fun board games provided and outdoor quoits on the soft grass. There's even an outdoor bath/shower with hot water after coming back from a day on the beach! Make sure you spend some time sitting on the large back deck while parrots, willywag tales and family birds move about the gardens. Can't wait to stay again!

Perfect for young family
It was just perfect size for our small family. Clean and cozy, beautiful garden and our 3yo enjoyed the cubby house and sand pit so much. So close to the Normanville town center and beach, yet so quiet in the night. Beautiful night sky. Pip was so easy to communicate too. We would love to visit again and 10/10 recommend to other people. Thank you!
