Beachfront Bliss - Great Mackerel Beach

100% Recommended

Pet-friendly
Just a few steps down from the house to Great Mackerel Beach on Pittwater - the house was named "Bliss" in 1961 when it was built. Lovingly restored to its quirky 60's feel you get to rewind, relax and rejuvenate in this idyllic and isolated part of Sydney backing onto the Kuringai Chase National Park.

The boat-shed (one of only 2 here) is a veritable treasure trove of kayaks, inflatables, deck-chairs and exercise equipment.

Make cocktails while you spin the vinyl collection, have that family chat while you wash the dishes (no dishwasher - it was the 60's ...) and play boardgames from the colelction in the spare room.

Howdy! Mark & Geoff here - we've had a shack at Great Mackerel Beach for over 20 years we bought our current shack in 2017 and have lovingly restored it to its 60's charm. Being water access only it is a secluded sanctuary on the northern tip of Sydney. We like to think of it as Shack-luxe, rustic and charming and with everything that you need.
