About this property

Longview @ Berowra Waters - Access by boat with pick up and drop off provided

Located on a bend in the river that affords a 180 degree vista of the surrounding pristine forests, Longview @ Berowra Waters is a magical destination for creating special memories. The residence is perched right at the water’s edge providing the sensation of truly being on the water for the duration of your stay. Surrounded by nature the prevailing sounds are of the water lapping at your pontoon, native birds and the gentle to and fro of life on the river. Included in your stay is a motorised tinny and double kayak perfect for exploring the river.

Made up of two individual buildings, of which are available to the guests who rent our property so you have plenty of room to come together or to spread out.

The Main Homestead comprises 2 Bedrooms, a Master with Queen Bed and a large separate en-suite complete with Spa Bath, while the second bedroom contains new King Single bunk beds perfect for the kids but very comfortable for adult guests.

The Boathouse so named as it is built above the waterline and is a little oasis for two, simple but perfectly formed contains a double bed with toilet and vanity.

Activities
Explore the river using the tinny provided or for that bit of luxury hire a BBQ Boat from the Marina, enjoy the walking tracks of Berowra Valley National Park and experience fine dining at Berowra Waters Inn, where you will be picked up and dropped off at your own pontoon upon request. If you're feeling energetic the double Kayak is a great way to explore the narrow channels of the river, including the tidal channels that cannot be accessed by motor boat.

Paddle around the corner to Calabash Bay and at low tide and you will find 'The Sandbar' a small beach perfect for swimming and known only to the locals. Explore a little further and you will discover beautiful wildlife up close that you will never see if you approach by land.

Alternatively dive right off your own pontoon into the deep water of Berowra Creek or watch the kid’s splash about from the balcony above while you enjoy the amazing views.

Dinning & Entertainment
One of Sydney’s most exceptional restaurants, the fabulous Berowra Waters Inn is located just two minutes away. Our friends there, Brian and Victoria, will arrange for a free pick up and drop off right to your pontoon which makes the whole experience of fine dining that little bit more special.

A Chef Secrets, another special dining experience offers fine Italian fare under the stars. Fully licenced this restaurant is a shot boat ride from the property and is open for breakfast and lunch during the week and they have added dinners on weekends.

We also offer Foxtel (most channels including sports package) and NetFlix, Free WiFi, PS3 & a selection of games, Board Games, toys, Stereo, and a selection of books for Adults and Children are all available during your stay.

Hawkesbury River Dreaming

The Boathouse provided the perfect setting for our nature escape. Your kayak was all we needed to explore the river and creeks. The Hawkesbury River is: super moon, lulling-lap-lap of water, screaming cicadas, soothing crickets, Sydney sandstone, naughty possum, electric thunderstorm, rough barked apple blossoms, Xanthorrehoea spikes in flower, Australian bush bees, jumping mullet, strange crustaceans, morning sunlight dancing on the ceiling and spilling across the river slate floors. Thank you Cameron and Eleanor for an unforgettable experience. Hawkesbury River dreaming, Tia and Andrew

Where memories are made

I took my partner here for a surprised getaway weekend and finished it off with proposing whilst enjoying the beautiful scenery. She said YES and we'll forever remember this boathouse as the beginning of a new chapter in our lives. Dinner at Berowra Waters Inn was a unforgettable experience, from service to food. The next day we took the boat and had a picnic on the water. We'll return again to this boathouse.

Magical weekend

Our family of 6 stayed at The Boathouse and very much enjoyed our stay. All of us were captivated by the beauty of the river and loved watching the passing boats, seaplanes and kayaks, as well as the birds. We used the boat to explore the river and it's beautiful bays and to go to the cafe at Berowra Waters. The house was comfortable, clean, cosy and had everything we needed for our stay. Would have loved to have stayed longer.........

An Idyllic Retreat on the Berowra Waters

My partner and I decided to stay at the Berowra Waters Boathouse and found that it had everything we needed and more. Situated on the water's edge with breath- taking views, the property is ideal for both a peaceful couple's getaway or family holiday. Very clean and well-equipped with amenities - we thoroughly enjoyed the spacious living room, kitchen and dining area. The comfortable bed also made for excellent nights sleep. We really appreciated the ample firewood as the temperature does get chilly during the winter. Location is fantastic - we spent one day cruising Berowra creek, visited Berowra Waters Inn for dinner and enjoyed a hike along the fire trail on top of the mountain. Cam and Elle are extremely friendly hosts and are available for queries during the stay. I highly recommend this gem in the heart of Berowra Waters and will be planning a trip back soon.

Great location but...

This is definitely a gorgeous location. However, the property, during the time of our stay, was in need of general maintenance (eg the grout in the kitchen and bathroom need attention and the stairs up to the property were slippery). In addition, there are no clear property orientation notes, so unless you want to be in constant contact with the neighbour who does the check-in (something that had no appeal for us), prior to booking, check with the owners to ensure you know where to find things like kindling and to ensure there is room in the fridge and freezer to store your own provisions, and be sure to ask if the BBQ is clean and supplied with gas. Some niceties such as bedside tables and room in the cupboards to unpack, bathroom hand towels and mats would be appreciated. All of these comments have been brought to the attention of the owner so hopefully they have been addressed.
