A step out of time...
Hidden behind lush greenery the beach cottage is an absolute haven from all that the slipstream of life steals. Spacious, homely, very well equipped and the location superb. We walked on the beach every day; along the river with its myriad of moods; across to Griffith Island beside shimmering water, its sandy shores decorated with Hooded Plovers- both small and large , Oyster Catchers and Gulls.
Coffee- no shortage of options- I think we tried most with our favourites for quality and service: Milll House, Oak and Anchor and Bank.
For dinner Lemongrass but if The Merrijig has tables ( booked out this time) then they are a must - we have tried them many times before and always been elated by the offerings and the ambiance).
Once tasted , never forgotten are the fish and chips but particularly the scallops from East Beach Milk Bar ( diagonally across from your front porch and just like the sirens of mythology the call of them was ashamedly irresistible).
The stillness of the cottage, the resident magpies, the evenings spent gazing up at a brilliant firmament- sigh....we had 29 days and they are truly memorable.
