Relaxing bay side escape
My girlfriend and I had such a wonderful time staying in the boathouse of Judith and Michael for over two weeks.
The accommodation is very well equipped.
We enjoyed the webber bbq outside on the grass area - which is quite a rarity to have access to, most waterfronts in the area are either directly against a sea wall, mudflat or steep incline.
You can see for yourself as well, with a major highlight for me being the canoe - taking it for a row along the waterfront, checking out the big yachts, homes and then crossing the hacking river to the national park side where you can be lucky enough to spot a goanna sunbathing on a rock nearby a natural waterfall.
If you prefer cooking inside though, there is also a gas stove and microwave.
The house is two levels, the downstairs with the cooking facilities, sink, dining table and chairs (which can be placed outside on sunny days) and large bathroom with hot shower.
Upstairs is the bedroom, with big windows overlooking the bay and ample storage for your belongings.
Judith and Michael invited us for cup for a tea and great chat including their own wordly adventures which I encourage all guests to get an insight into cross continent travel before google maps!
We also met the neighbours on occasions as we were coming and going who were also very friendly, including Milly a young kelpy keen for a pat.
One neighbour you'll have to keep an eye out for as well is the local deer. There are whole families of deer who walk through the mangroves and feast on the grasses of nearby properties and it is quite an exciting experience especially the young ones learning how to walk - better than tv thats for sure.
If you are in the mood for a morning coffee, there is a coffee shop just up the street along with liquor shop and general store.
As would be expected in Sydney suburbs, you'll be more comfortable hiring a car if you dont already have one. That way you can take a day trip down into the royal national park (burning palms beach, bundeena etc) or shopping at westfield miranda with interntional retailers such as zara, uniqlo etc and of course Cronulla is just down the road with its world famous surfing reserve and bustling cafes and esplanade.
Would definitely recommend and thank you once again Judith and Michael for a great stay.
