Sleeping just eight guest in four beautiful pavilions, Pretty Beach House makes for a peaceful retreat in the midst of Australia’s spectacular Bouddi National Park.
Perched on an escarpment high above the village of Pretty Beach, just 90 minutes north of Sydney this sophisticated lodge represents the epitome of laidback luxury. Its four pavilions are surrounded by stunning views of the natural world, from the ancient angophora forest down to the sparkling waters of Broken Bay. Each is thoughtfully equipped with little luxuries, from heated flooring to wood burning fireplaces and private plunge pools.
Crafted out of handmade mud bricks and recycled timber posts, the main house is a shared space where you’ll find the guest lounge, day spa, outdoor infinity pool and spectacular dining room – which is warmed by a huge sandstone fireplace. Italian-inspired dishes are prepared from native ingredients and produce plucked straight from the kitchen garden.
Whether you’re seeking a romantic escape, a quiet place to rejuvenate or a base for adventure, Pretty Beach is quintessential Australian coastal experience. Golden beaches and bays are on your doorstep, as well as fabulous hiking trails that wind along coastal sandstone cliffs. Boating, sailing, mountain biking and tennis are all on the menu, as well as the opportunity to connect with the local Aboriginal culture.
