Over The Fire Cooking

The fire pit in the backyard is all set-up for easy and amazing over the fire cooking. We put t-bone steaks & veggies on there, as well as foiled some sweet potato to roast in the coals. It was scrumptious.

Private Rockpool

This rockpool is truly something to behold... complete with waterfalls, fish, dragonfly's, and real plants. The water is magical and free of chemicals. It's own little eco system humming along for your private use. You can swim, dive, snorkel, play under the falls, hang in the Dragonfly Hut, and soak in the sunshine.
