Evoking the simplicity of the traditional Australian beach shack, Tucker House connects you directly to the bush in comfort and style. With deep set parapet balconies and floor-to-ceiling windows, and clad in three-tone Equitone in a unique chevron pattern, it floats effortlessly above the trees. Tucker House features a spacious living area with stylish furnishing and spectacular views, stunning art, a fabulous chef’s kitchen, two large balconies, three bright bedrooms and all the luxuries necessary for a memorable holiday.

Living areas

Eclectically and tastefully furnished, the main living areas are finished in hardwood-grained Italian porcellanato tiles and framed by full height double glazed windows. A large Punjabi teak dining table with Italian designer chairs. Stylish and comfortable leather chairs, expandable B&B Italia lounge suite and indoor/outdoor oversize bean bag, all perfect for lazy afternoon naps.

The long beach-facing southern balcony provides expansive views of Wye River town and beach, whilst the western balcony is a sunny and secluded oasis. The wood heater provides excellent warmth in the chilly months, whilst the split-level air conditioner will see you comfortably through hot summer days and nights.

The large Sony TV features all Melbourne free-to-air channels, as well as a blu-ray DVD player and HDMI-Lightning adapter (to connect to your iPhone or iPad for streaming services). The Onkyo stereo provides brilliant sound to play music CDs or listen to the radio (AM/FM). It can be connected to any mobile device to stream your own music, or use our iPad stocked with loads of albums and special DJ mixes.

Wi-fi & phones

Tucker House wifi utilises the local 5G network, so may be a bit slow when the town is busy.

The TV is fitted with a HDMI-Lightning adapter which allows you to stream your own services directly from your phone (there are no apps on the TV).

Telstra and Optus mobiles (and any affiliates, such as Boost) will work well. Other services, such as Virgin or TPG, may not work at all in most of Wye River.

We also have a great selection of DVDs and books!

The bright third bedroom features two comfortable single beds. All bedrooms are fitted out with 100% premium New Zealand wool carpet and ceiling fans.

All linen and towels are included.
