A smidge outside Wye River is this tranquil beach-and-bush retreat run by husband-and-wife owners Peter and Bronwen Jacobs, both established artists. Choose between a contemporary loft suite with handmade furniture and a wood heater, and well-priced, cosy units, all with cooking facilities. It's an 800m walk to Wye River and only 200m from the beach. There's a two-night minimum stay.
Peter's a bit of a renaissance man (artist, snake catcher, winemaker, gardener and firefighter) and will happily show you around the place, including his painting studio, garden conservatory and resident farm animals, while telling you plenty of local yarns.
