Cottage Point Inn

Sydney


This former general store for boat traffic is now one of Sydney's finer restaurants, in an unforgettable waterside setting in Cottage Point. Sitting out on the deck here enjoying sumptuous, delicately prepared seafood and meat morsels is a worlds-away experience. If you're not arriving by car or seaplane, there's a daily boat from Palm Beach but no other transport.

They also offer two apartments designed for couples. It's 10km from the main road in Terrey Hills.
