Shoaly House Cottage - A charming coastal escape
Welcome to our charming cottage, a haven for up to 5 guests.
The Cottage is Inclusive of 2 cozy bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a spacious lounge and dining area, alongside all the essential bathroom amenities. A shared Laundry is available.
Upon arrival, park at the front and follow the path on the right side to your cozy cottage.
Your perfect pet-friendly Beachside Getaway awaits!!
Shoaly House Cottage is located in the heart of Shoal bay, within only a short walk of several activities ensuring all in your accompanying party are catered for.
On those blistering summer days find bliss in a short walk to the beach where you'll find pristine sands and crystal-clear waters. Our top picks in the area include:
- Shoal Bay Beach (A peaceful spot for those with young Kids) (1KM)
- Box Beach (Perfect spot to catch some waves, Note: Unpatrolled) (1KM)
- Fingal Bay Beach (Lovely spot for a morning sunrise stroll) (1KM)
- Zenith Beach (2KM)
Exploring the local area can be best done by wandering the local trails and cruising the local waterways. Our favourite ways to do this include:
- Tomaree Coastal Walk (A beautiful summit with serene bay views, perfect for that sunrise/sunset pic!!!)
- Point Stephens Lighthouse and Fingal Spit Walk (Pure bliss at low tide)
- Shoal Bay Boat Ramp (Launch your boat and traverse the stunning coastline, perfect for those bluebird summer days)
For the little ones we recommend:
- An afternoon fishing session off the pier.
- Surfing Lessons located at Fingal Bay Beach
- The Local parks and playgrounds
