Set back from the road in half acre of manicured gardens with a fresh water creek at the edge of the garden, this property is a special place to spend some time, whether it be having breakfast ,reading a book or just watching the abundant wild life. You will be our only guests so the pool is there for your personal enjoyment.
Having lived in the Port Stephens for 43yrs. I have a very comprehensive knowledge of the area and I am happy to supply guests with a map and inform them of places of interest, magnificent views along with some great restaurant recommendations.
Salamander Bay is a quiet residential area and is the main shopping precinct in the Port Stephens area.
