Photos below show the waterways nearby, some within walking distance, others just a few minutes drive away.

Tilba Cottage is close to many local walking trails - some with fabulous ocean views! On a clear day try the boardwalk at Putty Beach for views to Sydney.

Enjoy a meal at one of the local eateries. You will find everything from English breakfasts, pizzas, pasta, vegetarian or crunchy fish & chips to gourmet home smoked salmon or aged beef sirloin. For something simple, BBQ on the front deck of the cottage, or in the park opposite the jetty.

Meander 10 mins down to Wagstaffe and catch a ferry to Ettalong markets and movies, or across to Palm Beach.

Drive a few minutes to Killcare surf beach (patrolled) or hire a boat from the marina to explore local waterways.

Ettalong, Umina and Woy Woy are a 15 mins drive and offer a wide range of shops and restaurants. Feel like a bit of indulgence? try Terrigal - still within a 20 minute drive of the cottage.

The cottage is the perfect place to relax in summer or winter.
