Luxurious Hideaway at Blue Bay
Adventure in Blue Bay, Central Coast, NSW, AU
Our stay at the Nest was met with a timely change in weather, as we pulled into the driveway the clouds cleared and the sun began to shine.
The unique architecture of this luxurious retreat was enough to impress, let alone the the precise modern vintage stylings. From the ornate artworks on the wall to the wicker wrapped brass bottle opener in the wine rack, everything in this studio had its place and purpose.
We spent our days on the bikes provided by our host, visiting Toowoon Bay and Blue Bay as well as multiple visits to the local cafes situated only 100 metres from our front door. Our indulgent views were topped off with two spectacular sunsets, one on Long Jetty overlooking Tuggerah Lake and the other on the fairways of Shelley’s Beach Golf Course.
For one last hoorah before we headed back to reality, we took a short drive to Distillery Botanica for a quick gin tasting and a roam of their beautiful garden....
