This 100 year old house offers a rustic & retro beach house experience. Kept simple, comfortable, it offers classic fun including jigsaws, games, TV, DVDs & wifi. It is only a 5 minute bush walk to stunning Blackhead Beach or 10 minutes through a sub-tropical rainforest to the shops. Once you've arrived there's no need to get in your car til you're ready to go home.

The space
This is a much loved beach house & a great place to unwind, get active & reconnect with yourself & your family. There are ocean baths, beach walking & exploring to do with a patrolled swimming beach (school holidays). We are dog friendly on request, please let us know how many & what breeds so we can confirm if this will work, we ask dogs be kept off inside furniture & ask guests to pick up any dog poop in the yard. There is a one-off pet fee of $25. It's a dog friendly beach but have your leads with you for certain area's. , The fencing is about 1.2 metres high so best for small dogs and the neighbours have dogs too, so one's that don't get too barky would be welcome.

Frida's is close to the beach and catches a great ocean breeze, there are ceiling fans in the bedrooms and living area, and we've got ducted air-conditioning.
There is good mobile coverage from Telstra & Optus, other providers are variable.

The bathroom has a shower over its clawfoot bath, it’s a little curvy on the bottom and maybe unstable for some, we have a great ensuite shower as well & an outdoor shower with hot and cold.

We are LGBTIQ friendly and this is the perfect honeymoon venue!

Frida's has a wrap around verandah on two sides, it's like a room outside and you can move with the sun or hide in the shade. On one side the veranda is about 1 metre in height without railings and that's why we've recommended not suitable for children under 3 years, you can use your own judgement.

Guest access
You have access to the entire property
Other things to note
Off street parking under a carport for two vehicles and plenty of street parking

We provide linen, sheets & towels, please bring your own beach towels.

    We loved our stay at Fridas by the Sea. Beautiful location and the house is amazing. Our dogs had the best time playing in the garden. This was our first stay but it definitely won’t be our last.

    Super sweet. We were only able to stay for a short time as we had commitments elsewhere but Evelyn was very accommodating of our needs and did everything possible to make our stay relaxing and comfortable.We found fresh milk in the fridge, a beautiful bouquet of light pink roses on the bench and flannelette sheets on the bed! Everything you needed for a longer stay was available from cookware and cleaning products, to children's books and games, a work station and brochures incl local walking trails etc.The vibe is chill and the artworks and soft furnishings add to the colour and charm of this little cottage. The garden, deck furniture, pretty coral colour on the French doors and the party lights make for a beautiful, light and welcoming outside oasis. I have recommended Frida's to my family members particularly those with children and doggies who need a break from the city. An exceptional experience all up. Thank you. :)

    We had a wonderful stay at this comfortable, spacious house. Every room was a joy & furnished with a homage to Frida. We especially loved the verandah and ensuite! Everything we could possibly need was supplied. With nearby beaches to explore and great communication from the owners we wished we could have stayed longer.

    We keep returning to this magical house that is an Australian classic home, built for family fun by the sea and bush walks, back in the days when homes were made for living. Every amenity needed is supplied and our grandkids love playing on the roofed veranda and the beautiful garden, so easy to supervise games and outdoor fun even in the rain. We'll keep returning to Saint Fridas. Thanks Jessica and Steve the caretakers and Evelyn and Kerry the Hostesses of the mostest! XX

    Frida's by the sea is a charming, comfortable cottage with a wrap-around verandah which is great spot to relax. All amenities were in place including an effective air-con system and modern appliances in a quirky, traditional setting. The location is surprisingly close to the dog-friendly beach via a lane and short stroll through the bush. Notes left by the host made us feel welcome and there were lots of basics (tea, coffee, milk etc.) in the kitchen so no need to go to the shops for anything apart from food. Overall, a great place for a relaxing getaway.

    Good communication with host Evelyn. Cosy home in great street with all you need, clean house, comfortable bed and lounge, completely fenced for your little pups which, if well behaved are able to stay, we really appreciated this opportunity and made sure we abided by the rules to keep house clean for next holiday makers, which we believe is very important. Will hopefully be back to this little gem of coast line.

    We had a wonderful peaceful 5-day nature getaway from the city at Frida's by the Sea Beach House: close to beautiful Red Head beach via nature walk, lovely modernised farmhouse-style cottage with the feeling of home + art decor, dog friendly for our little Jack Russell cross including fenced in yard and friendly cow neighbours, wonderful dark skies to see the Milky Way etc, close to Forster for excellent dog-friendly restaurants,..., and friendly responsive host Evelyn. Thank you so much!

    My wife and I, and our dog visited Frida's at the end of a 2 week road trip. What a way to finish! We stayed for two nights, but wished we stayed for longer. The house is beautifully decorated in varied and exciting pieces of art, and furnishings. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is well appointed and the fireplace made for cozy watching of the TV and movies. Fabulous! We are already looking forward to the next time we visit.
