An idyllic location that is off the beaten track and located in a peaceful valley, full of birdsong and with a gentle stream flowing to a secluded all-weather bay and safe, child-friendly beach. The self-contained cottage is located by the stream and 20m from the main house where the owners live. The bay is very private with safe swimming and is sometimes frequented by dolphins. There are two registered moorings for parking your boat and a jetty with pontoon for easy boat access. Walk 300 metres from the jetty to the house across the beach at low tide or along the track around the edge of the bay at high tide. Three sit-on-top kayaks are available by arrangement.
