House in Central Coast

About this house rental
A refined coastal sanctuary five minutes' stroll from Forresters Beach, this airy, light-filled lodge sleeps 12 across five bedrooms — including a private studio suite with its own kitchenette and ensuite. Soak in the heated spa year-round, fire up the BBQ in the generous backyard, and wander down to pristine sand, rockpools and the village cafe strip. Built for big family escapes.
The Space:
Designed for bespoke coastal living, Forresters Lodge flows effortlessly from expansive open-plan interiors to sun-soaked outdoor terraces. Days here are simple: beach in the morning, long lunch on the deck, an afternoon soak in the heated spa, then sunset drinks in the undercover lounge while the BBQ works.
The layout is what makes the Lodge special for groups. Five beautifully appointed bedrooms sleep 12, and the private downstairs studio suite — with its own kitchenette, ensuite and entrance — gives grandparents, couples or teenagers a genuine retreat of their own. Two households can holiday together here without living on top of each other.
After salty days by the ocean, rinse off under the outdoor showers and ease back into total coastal calm.

The Location
Forresters Beach is one of the Central Coast's quiet achievers — a relaxed pocket between Terrigal and Bateau Bay with a long sandy beach, brilliant surf breaks and calm corners for the kids. You're five minutes' walk from the sand and the village strip's artisan coffee and baked treats, ten minutes' drive from Terrigal's restaurants and shops, and right beside Wyrrabalong National Park's coastal walking trails — where whales cruise past from May to November. Sydney is around 90 minutes by car.
The Neighborhood:
Forresters Beach is a relaxed coastal suburb on the Central Coast of New South Wales, located between Terrigal and Bateau Bay. Known for its long, sandy beach and excellent surf breaks, it attracts surfers, families, and those seeking a quieter, laid-back seaside lifestyle. The beach features both open surfing areas and calm spots suitable for children, making it ideal for family outings.
The suburb has a small local village feel, with a handful of cafés, shops, and services nearby, while still being surrounded by natural attractions such as Wyrrabalong National Park and scenic coastal walking trails. These provide opportunities for bushwalking, whale watching, and enjoying the region’s coastal beauty.
Forresters Beach is popular with both permanent residents and holidaymakers, offering a mix of beachside homes, modern properties, and holiday rentals. Its combination of natural beauty, relaxed atmosphere, and convenient access to nearby towns makes it an appealing spot for both living and vacationing.
