A relaxed coastal farmhouse where kids can play freely, long meals stretch into sunsets, and the rhythm of the ocean sets the pace for your stay. Whether it’s surf mornings, fireside evenings, or simply doing nothing at all — Skippers is about time well spent together.
This is not a party house.
It’s a retreat for people who value connection, calm, and the natural beauty of the coast.
Five comfortable bedrooms — ideal for extended families and groups of friends
Large farmhouse layout — space to gather, space to retreat
Surrounded by nature — peaceful, private, and unhurried
Minutes from Bells Beach & the Surf Coast
Everything else — layout, amenities, photos, pricing — is available on Airbnb.
Hand-built in the 1970s by local craftsman Johannes Willemsen, Skippers has been part of countless family holidays over generations.
When we purchased and restored the farmhouse in 2018, our goal was simple: to preserve its character while creating a place where modern families could slow down and reconnect.
“We created Skippers for people who love family, friends, good times, and the ocean as much as we do.”
📍 Bells Beach, Victoria
On the iconic Great Ocean Road — close to the surf, walks, cafés, and coastal towns, yet far enough away to feel completely removed.
