The deck and BBQ are perfect for outdoor entertaining.

The cottage's northerly aspect and many windows will ensure that the cottage takes advantage of a sunny day. For days that are on the chilly side, the wood heater will provide heat for the whole shack and a romantic air, sure to please.

Taylors Beach is a vast stretch of beach that is home to many birds that nest throughout the dunes at certain times of the year.
The wildlife in this area is what makes it more than special, take the time to get out at night with a torch. It is not unusual to spot Quoll, Potaroo, Echidna, Owl, Possum & Wallaby, even Platypus in Sloop Lagoon.

During the day the bird life is abundant, many sea birds, as well as on the lagoon.

The sighting of pods of Dolphins are also common with migrating Humpbacks often seen frolicking along Taylors during the different seasons - May to July and again from September through to November.
