Listening to the forest come alive as you watch the sun rise from the deck or the master bedroom is a great way to start each day. A 5-10 min walk down the track to the beach gives you the whole of towers bay to yourself till the occasional kayak or tour boats start popping in around 10:30. It’s about 15 minutes back up the hill - our five year old had no problems running all the way back up :) by mid afternoon you have the beach to yourself again.
