Ann's place is brilliant. It's a tranquil, self-contained guesthouse set amongst a beautiful and very well-maintained garden. While it's a 10 minute drive from town, the location has it's upside, it is very quite and peaceful and only a short drive to Tacking Point lighthouse/beach where there is a fantastic cafe ("Coast"). Getting about by car in Port Macquarie is easy, traffic is light and parking is easy. Ann was a great host, very helpful and responsive.
