Little piece of paradise
This is a cute cabin in a quiet location for a restful stay yet close enough to local amenities. The owners really make you feel at home and go out of their way to give you hints & tips on how to make the most of your trip including beaches, bush walks & dining spots. Over New years the suggestion for local fireworks spots was great & a highlight for the kids. Overall a clean, cosy, well appointed cabin perfect for young families.

Small but cute
We stayed here for a week during my brothers wedding, the place was small but cute. We had a problem with the hot water on the wedding day which was very frustrating as we then ran late however it was fixed by that afternoon. Other than that hiccup we had a great stay.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
We are a family of surfers, freedivers and fishermen going back five generations on Blackneds Bay. Our passion is salt water. We are more than happy to share our knowledge of the area regarding surfing, fishing, spearfishing & boating. If we really like you, we might even show you some mudcrab and lobster hotspots.

Why they chose this property

Ned's on Northcote is cosy cottage surrounded by trees on a large block. There is plenty of parking for boats at the back of the house. The back verandah is a few metres off the ground and is literally in the trees. It is a beautiful place to sit and relax or rig a fishing line.

What makes this property unique

Ned's on Northcote is about being close to salt water. Nestled in the Swansea Heads peninsula you are surrounded by the Ocean, Blackneds Bay and Swansea Channel. Turn left and you are 700 metres to Frenchmans beach, home of the Frenchmans Boardriders Club. Keep walking and you are at Crabs Creek and Swansea Heads itself. Turn right and you are an 800m walk to Hams Beach and further on to Caves. Neds on Northcote is 100m away from public access to Blackneds Bay, a large fully tidal bay that is fringed by mangroves. It is one of the best places in Lake Macquarie to kayak, fish, and SUP.
