A beautiful setting on the lagoon- and quite tranquil-rather than in town. .The owners have put a lot of thought into an environmentally sustainable retreat. And kayaking from your front garden.!

kookaburra cottage

Amazing location and a beautiful cottage with plenty of room for the family. Waking up with a fantastic view and only a short drive to the local shops and beach. Fully equipped house and large bedrooms, huge dining area and lovely verandah to enjoy with a book while the local kangaroos lurk in the corner of your eye enjoying their surroundings.

No real facilities, no one to greet or show you to your accommodation, run down old caravan to sleep in, smelled damp and musty. I couldn’t stay in it and so told the owners, non the less they still charged me full rate of $117. Disgusted. Would not recommend to anyone

Stumbled upon this place when the rest of Bawley Point was booked out. What a hidden gem this is. Lovely cabins, free kayaks, 5mins from the beach, all located in a tranquil bush setting on the lake. Will definitely stay here again, very impressed.

Tranquil hideaway from the world

My partner and I spent a few wonderful days here in the Chefs Cottage. Check in was via phone call from the office. We didn’t need to see a soul. And felt we were the only ones there. It was beautiful, tranquil and relaxing. On walks around the grounds we ran into kangaroos, saw and heard birds in the trees and watched swans on the lake. The cottage was lovely, clean and comfortable. We had a log fire in the evenings due to chilly nights. And had everything we needed. It’s wonderful for a hideaway but easy driving distance to local shops at Bawley Point or Ulladulla and a day out in Batemans Bay. We loved it

Peacefully and tranquil. Clean and most things available. Not sure about the composting toilet and limited drinking water only at specified taps which makes the daily tariff seem expensive for what you get. This Bush Retreat is far from services. Make sure you take in your provisions from the major centres as limited shops and no reception facilities. Overall expensive for what you get.

"ONE THE BEST" places on the south coast

The moment we arrived till we had left the retreat. Had enjoyed every minute of of here. Home away from home but coastal lifestyle. 10/10 self contained for relaxation and beautiful bush spot. Everything is only mins away if you need a quick stop at the shops or a coffee too ect.. Amazing for our fur child "Juce". Customer service was 110% excellent. We shall definitely book again soon.
