Accommodation: The 3 bedrooms are separately located giving greater privacy and space. The large bathroom has a separate bath and shower, separate toilet (one of 2), and separate hand basin area. This makes Salamander Cottage especially suitable for groups and families. Bring your own linen.

Facilities: Salamander Cottage is well equipped for your needs – with a modern kitchen (microwave and dishwasher), ceiling fans and entertainment facilities, full laundry facilities, and outdoor line, and a second small fridge for extra drinks or bait. The huge double lock up garage can store a boat/canoes/surfboards/dingy and car or 2 cars. Or you can use the space as a playroom for the family (table tennis).

Features: The house is a short level walk to the bay-side reserve - Georges Reserve and beach, [pedestrian access walkway]. This water front reserve has views of the bay through to the Port Stephens Heads – Tomaree and Yacaaba. Leave the car – you can walk for miles along the foreshores and take in the stunning views, and birdlife. Fish, snorkel, canoe or boat locally, take a picnic to the many water-front parks and relax. Surf beaches are only 10 minutes away.

Shops, cafes, Salamander Shores Hotel [bottle shop/bar/dining], restaurants, a local club are all within 5 to 10 minute walks. Several boat ramps are a few minutes by car as is the Horizon's Golf course, with other golf courses in Nelson Bay - Port Stephens. It is all here locally, but the Nelson Bay Marina and Shopping Centre is only a 10 minute scenic drive away.
