Om vÀrden

Mandy Hunt Àr vÀrd

VĂ€rdens profilbild
I am from Sydney's Northern Beaches but fell in love with the area of Hawks Nest Tea Gardens 20 years ago. We have been holidaying in the area ever since and decided to build our own holiday home after finding many of the properties we rented through local agents were not up to scratch and holiday rental prices started to rise and rival other coastal hotspots like Blueys Beach and Forster.

Drift was designed during the pandemic and it was completed in May 2024. It has been designed specifically for large multi generation families to soend quality time together in a modern comfortable holiday home in an area that is one of the NSW coasts best kept secrets.

Varför vÀrden valde detta boende

Bayview Road (also known as Limekilns) is historically associated with oyster farming. The area was known for its oyster industry, and the lime kilns were used to process oyster shells, which were a byproduct of the oyster farming process. The piles of oyster shells left in Aboriginal middens were mined by early settlers as a source of lime for mortar.

The general area of Tea Gardens was occupied by the Worimi Aborigines prior to white settlement. The first Europeans to work in the area were timbergetters who took an interest in the forests (mostly red cedar) along the Myall River early in the 19th century. The timber was hauled by bullock train to mills, then carted by punt downriver. Ships bound for Newcastle and Sydney picked up the timber, unloading the stone they carried for ballast on the banks of the river, much of it being used in the construction of the rock walls which can still be seen today.

The Australian Agricultural Company arrived in the area in 1826 and it was reputedly their failed attempts to grow tea there which underscored the name Tea Gardens, although another account suggests it was the tea-tree in the area. At any rate it seems Chinese assistants were employed as advisors in the endeavour and they also acted as gardeners growing vegetables for the company settlements. The mouth of the Myall was traversed by punt until a ferry service was established in 1928, replaced by the bridge in 1974

Hawks Nest became a prominent holiday destination primarily in the 1950s. The town's development as a service center for local industries, particularly fishing and timber, preceded this period. While initial land grants in the area occurred in the late 1800s, with sawmilling operations in the 1870s, the area's focus on tourism really took off after World War II due to post-war affluence and the construction of an Art Deco style pavilion in 1937.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

Bayview River Retreat is a quality contemporary coastal home in a unique off the beat track location in Tea Gardens (but very close to the local town and community). It's incredibly peaceful with almost no traffic passing.

You can SUP, Kyak and fish directly off the front of the property. You will be spotting nature and wildlife day and night and enjoy whisper quiet evenings for deep sleep.

The firepit will be a favourite and a place to gather in the afternoon evening.
