The cottage has a verandah and entertainment area, with spectacular views of the Manning River and across the river to Oxley Island and Mitchells Island. A must is a visit to Harrington and Crowdy Head Fishermens' Co-Op for fresh seafood and a swim in the surf. Take a drive up to Crowdy Lighthouse for panoramic views.
