Blue Patch Holiday Accommodation

Blue Patch at 19 Silvermere Street is a holiday house built around dogs rather than one that merely tolerates them. It is a short walk from both Culburra Beach and Warrain Beach on the NSW South Coast, and the owners have equipped it so completely for pets that you can genuinely travel light and still arrive with everything a dog needs.

Dogs at Blue Patch

Pets are welcome inside the house, on the timber decking, and in the rear yard, which is large, leafy, private and fully dog-fenced. That enclosure is the headline: your dog can be outside unsupervised while you make coffee, which few beach rentals can offer. The supplied kit covers indoor and outdoor dog beds, food and water bowls, a box of toys, dog beach towels, spare collars and leads, and complimentary natural treats, food and shampoo. The setup leans towards medium-sized dogs. Specific pet fees are not published, so confirm the fee, any limit on dog numbers, and whether dogs may be left alone indoors when you book.

The vibe

This is a proper family beach house with a leafy, relaxed feel rather than a sterile unit. Culburra Beach and Warrain Beach are both unspoilt golden-sand stretches, and Lake Wollumboola sits close by for a change of scenery. It suits owners of well-behaved dogs who want indoor access and a secure yard rather than a dog confined to a deck. Bring extra towels for sandy beach days even with the supplied set.

Getting there and parking

Silvermere Street is in the heart of Culburra Beach, about 25 minutes' drive east of Nowra. Both patrolled and quieter stretches of sand are a two to five-minute walk, so mornings and evening beach runs happen on foot without moving the car. Off-street parking is at the house.

Fuel up at Bennys Cafe or book dinner at The Little Snapper, both dog-friendly locals. For a secure off-lead run, Greenwell Point fenced dog park is a short drive away, and Seakissed Beachhouse is the other fenced-yard option in town if Blue Patch is booked.

Max: A fully fenced leafy yard two streets from the sand is the whole reason to book here. Confirm the pet fee at booking and pack the spare towel anyway.
