KINGFISHER COTTAGE Beachfront at Bay of Fires

Kingfisher Cottage, formerly one of the Bay of Fires Character Cottages, has the absolute best location at the Bay of Fires. You only have to walk a few steps to be sitting on Binalong Bay Beach, or even less will have you sitting on the deck at the local restaurant. This cottage has been a favourite holiday destination for many years. Recently the new owner has purchased all new bedding, kitchen accessories, large flat screen TV & DVD, dining table, couches and really comfy deck furniture, to help their guests enjoy the wonderful experience that is the Bay of Fires. They even supply gourmet coffee! FREE FAST WIFI is available. There is a full length, ENLARGED DECK to enjoy the fabulous views from.

The cottage has been repainted throughout, giving it a beautiful relaxed beach ambience, which is bright and airy. You will just love your stay here, and won't want to go home.

Kingfisher Cottage sleeps 6 guests, in 2 bedrooms, both with views of Binalong Beach and along the Bay of Fires. There is a large open plan living/dining/kitchen, with ocean and beach views from all areas. One bathroom services the cottage.

Cute little stay in Binalong Bay

Amazing location and cute house.
We had a fabulous stay here. I only wish it was for longer. You cannot beat the location of this cottage. Beautiful views, short walk directly across the road to the beach, and a great cafe next door for coffee and afternoon drinks/dinner. The house itself was very cute, and had everything we needed to be comfortable. Highly recommend for a stay.

We had a wonderful stay at Kookaburra Cottage. The position of this house was a standout. Blessed with gorgeous beach weather and stunning sunsets, it was a magical place to be. The house was so well presented and set up for a relaxed laid-back holiday.

We only had one night, so the proximity of the cottage to the beautiful beach and nearby restaurant was perfect. Everything is oriented to enjoying the spectacular view in comfort. Can't wait to return one day for a longer stay!

Nice spot
The house itself is run down which is to be expected due to its age. The kitchen is functional and overall cleanliness was not too bad. The beds just about broke me but all of this really didn’t bother us too much as the location is second to none and our 2 dachshunds were welcome. Jan the property manager was friendly and helpful.

Absolutely loved it. Amazing view, super comfortable space, and has everything you need -fridge, washer, dryer, kitchen facilities ect. Everything is clean and tidy, nothing is faulty, parking is undercover and there’s a cafe/restaurant next door which is so convenient plus beach right across the road, what more could you want. Will definitely be back, so sad we were only here for one night, loved it so much!!
