If you're looking for a quiet retreat on the Northern Beaches Avalon Peacock Cottage is a fantastic place to stay. It's super close to Avalon Beach, Whale Beach and Palm Beach. Pennie is a lovely host and very accommodating. The cottage has a lovely quiet / private backyard area. It was lovely enjoying a glass of wine under the palm fronds in the back yard. The kitchen is well equipped including nespresso with capsules. Avalon Peacock Cottage is a great base to access fantastic restaurants and beaches. We went stand up paddle boarding in Claireville and Palm Beach and it was a lot of fun. We walked to Whale Beach and spent the day swimming and reading, it was beautiful. Avalon Peacock Cottage was a lovely tropical retreat perfect for a long weekend get away.
