Cosy little cottage in Brightwaters, NSW, close to the shores of Lake Macquarie. Nothing fancy, but a clean, quiet and safe place to stay. Each bedroom has its own bathroom, with the lower bathroom also equipped with a washer and dryer. There is enough space for one car to park on the property, and additional parking is available on the street. The kitchen includes a stove, oven, kettle, toaster, coffee grinder, and coffee plunger. Outside, there's a BBQ on the deck and a fire pit on the lawn. We love animals but in the interest of the local birds and wildlife we have a "no pets policy." \-Seconds from lake access. Launch your boat or fish along the shore line. \-5 minutes' drive to restaurant 8atTrinity - Trinity Point Marina. https://8attrinitypoint.com.au \-Enjoy bush walks, lakeside strolls.
