Live like the great Australian jibber!
Two weeks ago, BeachGrit joined Chippa Wilson, the world famous aerialist, for a Sunday of late spring A-frames.
The conjoining was to create a short film called Twenty where Chip would attempt to nail twenty tricks in a morning on twenty different soft boards.
Hell of a good time etc.
Anyway, I was asking Chip about his pussy palace out the back of Cabarita, near Byron Bay there on Australian’s north east coast. It’s been featured in various shorts by What Youth, Stab etc.
“Wanna rent it?” he said.
It turns out, ’cause he travels so much, air shows, sponsor trips etc, that the Clothiers Creek ranch (here on Instagram) is open to the public.
It’s a gorgeous place to behold: you can sit under the trees and write stories about animals, paint landscapes, kiss as the sky darkens and thunderclaps explode in summer storms, spend warm nights with a frail little sleeper at your throbbing side, and you can chase funny chickens all around the yard.
And if you want to get a piece of Chip himself, ride one of the Drag softboards he keeps in the garage.
Designed for the Australian lifestyle, with elevated views over the local farm lands, a modern farmhouse style home with acreage / simplicity at its best.
Within 15mins drive from Salt Village Beaches and Cabarita Beach, this hosue is also minutes away the M1 Motorway giving an easy direct access to the Gold Coast Airport. It’s a real treat!
Spend your stay relaxing by the pool or chilling on the verandah enjoying the lush green views forgetting about near but distant city lifestyle.
Front doors opening to a entertaining deck with a selection of native trees surroundings brings total exclusivity with a indoor/ our door living flow throughout the home.
Also feel free to collect some fresh eggs from the chooks for breaky, coffee and tea grown from the fields across the road from the property!
For the whole joint it costs around $US300 a night. Chip will swing a twenty percent discount to the first three guests who book a trip between now and February 18.

You get acreage for being a paid free surfer like Chip.
hard to argue with that.
How many shitters does it have?
He musta had a drunken night because some clown has scribbled shit all over his arm!
I hope it washes off before he sees his mum.
Yeah nearly as shit as Banksy
That’s correct. I’d never put in a colorbond fence either. They should be illegal. Fucking eye sore. Kill your local planning officer.
Cabarita is a beautiful spot. But fuck whoever built those Salt palaces. Wasn’t that land originally owned by the Perrin (Billabong) brothers?
I think everyone from Billabong, during those heady days when it was scratching a billion dollars in market cap, bought a slice. Matt Perrin, meanwhile, ain’t getting a lot of sun. https://www.abc.net.au/news…
He got 8 years for selling 90’s style shin-length boardshorts? Punishment fits the crime me thinks
Before that, at one point at least, it was thought to be the burial ground for the “Balaclava Killer”. Who was supposed to have picked up a number of women hitchhikers from the Gold Coast and murdered then in the dunes. I’m guessing the tact that no bones were dug up during construction was a sign that theory was canned.
Well, Brian Jonestown Massacre saved the first video from scoring a D-
Gonna get trashed now
When are you gonna feature Wiggolly’s fibro bungalow?
Send photos and loving description.

She ain’t mine but you get the gist. Fucken beautiful.
The Tool Shed? Nothing like a little wet aromatherapy living.
Are the stairs down to the dungeon located at the front or rear of the property?
Separate part of the compound.
Notes of the original Wigs, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and his Barcelona Pav. https://uploads.disquscdn.c…
I’d give it a quick reno I reckon. Replace that ridiculous pond with a pit of fire. Spruce it up before the sale.
Barcelona was pretty meh, but the Barcelona Pavilion was a stunning experience. I’ve seen a million photos of it, and thought I was prepared, but it knocks your socks off. Masterpiece.
I love the door , slightly ajar creating that , it’s almost closed and I could be up to mischief but no need to knock invitation ? Nice grass .
sound proof?
Jesus fuckin Christ, enough with the “cribs of the stars” bullshit..
Have a Love Hate Relationship with Airbnb, too many hosts complain about stupid stuff after you leave. Chippa’s pretty smart for putting his place up should he should try VRBO and Home Away and One Fine Stay too.
