Lakeview Cottage - Toukley

Summary:
Watch the sunset over the stunning Lake Budgewoi in this peaceful lakeside property. Built with its picturesque surrounds in mind, this light, and airy cottage is the ultimate setting for a relaxing and memorable stay.

Once a fisherman’s cottage, Lakeview Cottage has since been refurbished into a cozy holiday home that has retained plenty of its original charm. With truly spectacular views from all vantage points, this property is a picture-perfect place to kick back and relax.

The Space:
The property boasts three bedrooms, each with built-in robes, with a queen bed, double bed, and set of bunk beds to choose from. With a split-system air-conditioner in the living room and main bedroom, as well as fans in each of the remaining bedrooms, the Lakeview Cottage is built for holidays all year round.

You’ll love the cottage’s traditional charm, including the original kitchen layout, high ceilings, natural light, and impeccably kept wooden floors. The perfect intersection of old and new, you’ll be amazed by how the cottage’s historical features blend in seamlessly with its modern updates. The kitchen is a prime example of this, with its refurbished bench tops and modern appliances, including an oven, microwave, dishwasher, milkshake maker, blender, and coffee pod machine, settled alongside the vintage cabinetry and exposed brick finishings of the original kitchen setting.

The front deck of the cottage turns into your own private lookout over the sparkling waters of Lake Budgewoi, the prime place for a morning coffee or an afternoon of reading. You can also retreat to the cottage’s peaceful sunroom and continue to take in the incredible views, no matter what the weather has in store. You will also love the extra entertaining area at the back of the cottage, perfect for drinks and nibbles, which run onto the cottage’s lush backyard. The cozy living room is designed for chilling out and has plenty of entertainment options to choose from, including TV, Foxtel, DVDs, and boardgames.

The cottage also includes a fully functioning laundry, complete with a washing machine and dryer, and an outside clothesline for convenience. Onsite parking is also available during your stay.

The location of this peaceful lakeside cottage is truly exceptional, being within walking distance of the Toukley Golf Course and the local Club Toukley. Many of the local clubs also offer door-to-door shuttle bus services for your convenience. Being a former fisherman’s cottage itself, the Lakeview Cottage is of course the ultimate getaway for the avid fishermen and women. Mere steps away from the banks of Lake Budgewoi, you’ll love watching the paddleboarders and water skiers pass by, or you might just join them yourself!
