The Boatshed is a very special place, the perfect winter retreat right on the Hawkesbury River. Stunning views of the river from the very beautiful, cosy and comfortable space where you have everything you could possibly need, including a full kitchen. Sit on the verandah with a glass of wine and watch the moon come up, go to sleep to the sound of the river and watch the tide roll in at breakfast - so relaxing. Dangar Island is so peaceful, no cars or noise to disrupt your sleep, only the birdsong of the many birds you'll see while visiting. It's a lovely walk around the island, there is a good cafe and a small shop for last minute supplies and the local bowlo for an afternoon drink. Barb & Glenn are the perfect hosts, happy to help with anything you need - we borrowed their kayak and had a great time on the river.
The boatshed is only about an hour from Sydney, which makes it a very easy getaway to a unique environment that feels a thousand miles from city life. We will definitely visit again and hopefully stay longer next time.
