Independent review Mar 08 - Holiday Inspirations

Bed & Breakfast

From the moment you set sail from Church Point you begin to experience the wonderful relaxing world of Pittwater less than an hour¹s drive from the centre of Sydney.

Scotland Island Lodge is a beautiful architect designed private residence quietly tucked away on the North Eastern side of the island in the heart of Pittwater.

The island is accessible only by water. The Lodge opened late in 2002 as a boutique guest house/ bed and breakfast and over the years it has become renowned for its great hospitality and excellent cuisine made from fresh local ingredients and prepared daily by Rosemary and Colin.

It is ideally suited for the discerning traveller looking for something special off the beaten track or for local guests who would enjoy a unique and relaxing time away.

Today the island has residents from many countries and fields particularly the arts who choose to live here to enjoy the peaceful and inspiring surroundings.

SMH reviews
"Everyone on the tiny ferry knows everyone else and one of the passengers offers to walk us to the lodge. "Rosemary's a great cook," she says as she leaves us at our destination, a three-minute walk from the pier. "She does a great breakfast.
"Trip Advisor reviews
" There are so many fantastic things about Scotland Island Lodge that it's difficult to know where to begin. The unique island retreat is worth every cent."

Activities

Bushwalking

There are many walks around the island and in the National Park. Spend the day exploring the wonderful flora and fauna in the area. Take the Elvina Bay walk to your own private rock pool where you can watch the spectacular birdlife whilst enjoying the peace and tranquility of the area looking over Pittwater and over to the ocean beaches.

You can also explore the ancient Aboriginal site nearby and see their carvings in the rock.

This is just one of many great walks in the area and we can advise you on walks to suit your needs.

Kayaking

Why not take out our two man kayak and explore the island from the water. If the weather is suitable paddle across to the National Park to picnic and maybe have a swim. It is like being on your own tropical island.

Cruises

Take a ferry from Palm Beach to Ettalong on the Central Coast - a wonderful trip taking in Lion Island and Brisbane Waters.

OR take a ferry to Bobbin Head…… a scenic 2 hour trip from Palm Beach calling at Patonga (wonderful fish and chips), Cottage Point Restaurant, and then Bobbin Head. Have a walk or lunch at the Marina and then a trip back to Palm Beach. This is one of the best things to do when visiting Sydney.

Swimming

Join the locals and have a swim from Tennis Court Wharf or maybe go over to one of the many sandy beaches in the National Park.

Spa Pool

Start the day or complete your day by relaxing in our massage spa pool. Just the thing to do before dinner.

Yoga/Massage

If you are interested in either of these please speak to Rosemary who can arrange during your visit.

Other activities.

There are two local golf courses nearby, also tennis courts. If you enjoy shopping, Mona Vale and nearby Avalon have many unusual and interesting shops to spend some time browsing.

And if you just feel like being lazy, then you can relax in the garden with a magazine or your latest book and a cool drink, and let the rest of the world go by.
