If you are planning a special occasion and want to escape, indulge yourself at this absolute waterfront self-contained, peaceful, romantic hideaway.

 

Situated in the historic township of Toronto, the cottage is located on the shores of Lake Macquarie, Australia’s largest coastal lake, four times the area of Sydney harbor, 80 minute drive from the Sydney suburbs Wahroonga or Hornsby.

 

The air conditioned cottage is comfortable year round, facing east, cool and breezy in the summer and cozy in the cooler months.

 

It is thoughtfully appointed with all the things you need for a relaxing holiday, including queen bed, TV / VCR / CD facilities, books, magazines, games, hairdryer, iron, kitchen, gas BBQ, undercover parking and laundry.

 

There is a bay window with a seat as well as a waterfront verandah located in an idyllic setting, 15 meters from the edge of the lake, the interior is tastefully furnished, lined with natural timber.

 

Leave the car undercover at the door and stroll over to our close neighbour the Royal Motor Yacht Club which overlooks the marina and enjoy a meal at the award-winning restaurant or discover the many restaurants, cafes, shops, supermarkets, historic railway station and federation cottages in the township.

 

For those who prefer not to dine out, enjoy your own home cooked meal prepared on the outdoor barbeque.

 

Relax at the bay window or waterfront verandah, sip on a glass of wine and soak in the magnificent views, watch the yacht races and passing boat traffic, stroll by the lake to see the bird and marine life or simply leave the security door locked and listen to the gently lapping waves from your bed at night.

 

The reflections of sunrises are spectacular and on moonlight nights the waves roll by like scrolls of silver.

 

Novels, cards, magazines and scrabble are available if you need something to do apart from relaxing.

 

When you are not messing about around the waterfront, fishing from the lawn or simply enjoying the setting, catch a movie at the local cinema, head for the ocean beaches within a half hour drive, tour the Watagan mountains or visit the Hunter Valley wine country.

 

Ask about our offer of a complimentary yacht cruise.
