Dreamy Belgravia Bungalow

Located a short drive north of Old Bar. Manning Point offers the best country-style living right by the beach.

The Belgravia Bungalow offers all the amenities you’ll need during your stay with a few extra special things to make you feel right at home. Our generous host provided a huge spread of breakfast goodies with some local produce and delicious homemade cookies to enjoy with coffee or tea. Bikes are provided for the short 1km ride to the beach. We spent a good part of the trip relaxing around the fire and cooking on the bbq at the Bungalow. It’s a dream spot to watch the sunset, stargaze and enjoy the sounds of the ocean in the distance.

We spent Friday afternoon enjoying some wine, and a cheese platter as we watched the sunset on a Safari-like backdrop. The evening around the fire was lovely, the night ended with a moon so large; it was a breathtaking sight. The next day we rode the bikes and spent most of the day at the beach, exploring, reading, and swimming.

Flow Bar was a great place to watch some live music and meet the locals. The pizza, squid, and chicken paired with a cold beer and music were a lovely way to end the day.

Sunday morning we enjoyed the huge spread of breakfast left for us by Terri, our generous host. After breaky we got some work done before having to say our goodbyes to the sweetest 4 dogs and cat. Terri was so lovely and loaded us up with some Homemade cookies.

We made a coffee stop at the Greenhouse Cafe in Nabiak. The coffee, steak sandwich, and chips were just what we needed to fuel us home. This cafe and little town are worth visiting.

We did a little bit of Christmas shopping at a few local boutiques in Old Bar and stopped in at the Greenhouse Cafe for lunch. Great service and food. Just what we need for the trip home.

We had perfect weather for a day at the beach. Set up with some food, and a book and unwind to the sounds of the ocean. Manning Point Beach is also perfect for those who enjoy 4WDing.
