This is also an excellent vantage point for whale watching during the annual migration or just great for a family BBQ and snorkelling. In the afternoon, the girls can head down for cocktails overlooking stunning Fingal Beach at Saltwater or an early meal with the family at the Fingal Sport and Rec club less than two kilometres away.
The delightful shops of Market Street are just around the corner with a Friendly Grocer, Newsagent, local fuel stop and Cellar Café for something casual or the more formal setting of Saltwater restaurant all close by. A little further down the road is Shoal Bay, with a decent choice of Mediterranean inspired food options or modern pub fare.

Good location… we were greeted by approximately 25 dead cockroaches..screen door lock on front door could do with some attention. But overall we had a pleasant stay. Would book again.

The check in was smooth. There was a hiccup with bed linen, missing linen for 2 guests but it was sorted the same day. Which was fantastic! Great location close to the beach, which was superb! It was clean. Great service.
