The views from the cottage are wonderful and there is a very short walk to the beach. The beach itself is gorgeous, and waking up every morning to go out on the deck and view the scenery was great. We had a visiting kookaburra who seemed very fussy about what he would and would not eat, but also very friendly. There are great places to visit - the Remarkable Cave, Shipstern Bluff and Raoul Bay lookouts, and wonderful beaches - do visit Safety Cove! The supermarkets offer lots of choice and oysters at $15 a dozen made my day (several times!). Visit the Pear Shed for good coffee, food and fresh produce, all marked with the place of origin, as well as the gallery which displays work by local artists. A lovely place to visit!
