The perfect romantic retreat! Ridgedale Cottage is beautiful and rustic, a renovated original cottage with all the modcons one could want. The perfect romantic retreat, there is nothing better than waking up to watch the sail boats from the gorgeous view, or cooking the perfect dinner on the large BBQ. We are a company that does a lot of travelling so our best means of contact would be either through the app or please email us and my Team will respond as soon as possible! Bayview is a tranquil neighbourhood on Sydney’s northern coastline, offering stunning views of Pittwater and lush bushland. The area is known for its peaceful atmosphere, with locals enjoying morning jogs along the waterfront and families gathering in leafy parks. The streets feature a mix of elegant homes and cozy cottages, creating a welcoming community. Outdoor activities are at the heart of Bayview, with opportunities for sailing, kayaking, and hiking through nearby trails. The local cafes, boutique galleries, and hidden beaches add charm to the area. As the sun sets, the neighborhood transforms into a quiet retreat, where nature and community come together in perfect harmony. Please note that the cottage is adjacent to our House and shares a gate as well as the front yard. Should you prefer complete privacy, we highly suggest booking both the house and cottage under our other listing 'Ridgedale House & Cottage'.
