Things to do at Lakeside Cottage

Stroll the meandering paths and have a picnic under the willows or on the island. Feed the ducks or the fish in the lake. The magpies don’t need any encouragement and will eat any leftovers you may have.  A glass of bubbly in the gazebo is always good in the warmer months and a gas fired heater keeps you warm in cooler weather. The frogs, kookaburras and many other birds remind you of the perfect sounds of Mother Nature. Soak in all the fragrances of the hundreds of roses and stroll hand in hand through the rose tunnel stunningly lit with fairy lights.

There are numerous activities to suit all tastes within a few minutes scenic drive. Click here to enlarge a list of nearby attractions or visit OverseasAttractions.com
