The Myall River, spanned by the 'singing bridge' that leads to Hawks Nest, is great for fishing and boating. Grab a paddle and explore by a kayak hired from Lazy Paddles, or take a guided tour. The secluded Black Oaks picnic area is a gorgeous spot to stop for lunch on a paddling trip. In the spectacular Myall Lakes National Park, take a boat trip to sandy Broughton Island, home to the only campground in NSW where you can camp among a seabird colony. For a scenic and affordable day trip, jump on the Port Stephens Ferry Service which departs daily from Tea Gardens to Nelson Bay, where you can take dolphin watching cruises year round or go whale watching between May and November. Across the bridge in Hawks Nest, there are kilometres of beautiful beaches to relax on, including Bennett's Beach on the Pacific Ocean side, and tranquil Jimmys Beach on the bay. Tea Gardens has attracted a creative community, with local paintings, drawings, ceramics and jewellery on display at The Gallery and the Myall Community Arts and Crafts Centre (behind the Visitor Information Centre). The Myall River Art Walk also features 25 installations and sculptures scattered throughout Tea Gardens and Hawks Nest, an initiative to encourage and foster local talent. Tea Gardens punches well above its weight when it comes to great restaurants and cafes, many of them lining the riverfront. The oldest continually operating restaurant on the North Coast of NSW, Tillermans is an icon with a menu focusing on local produce; while the Tea Gardens Boatshed is a great place for brunch view absolute water views. Perfect for a beachside escape or family holiday, Tea Gardens is less than three hours' drive north of Sydney and just 40min from Newcastle Airport. Coach services also run from Sydney via Newcastle. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool - Hot tub - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Jetted bathtub - Shower ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - In-room accessibility - Lift - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Gym ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![Outdoor pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/2000000/1780000/1774000/1773945/e0c21fdc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Oaks Port Stephens Pacific Blue Resort Salamander Bay - Pool - Hot tub - Parking included - Air conditioning 8.6 Excellent 2,498 reviews £79 includes taxes & fees 29 Oct - 30 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-29&endDate=2025-10-30&selected=1773945&PinnedHotelID=1773945&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/4000000/3960000/3956900/3956833/fd6a9435.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Nelson Bay Breeze Holiday Apartments Nelson Bay - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Parking included 8.2 Very good 258 reviews £194 includes taxes & fees 26 Oct - 27 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-26&endDate=2025-10-27&selected=3956833&PinnedHotelID=3956833&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach Spa House | Balcony view](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/10000000/9630000/9625800/9625723/ab5bbaa5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Wanderers Retreat Port Stephens Boat Harbour - Pool - Hot tub - Parking included - Free WiFi 9.2 Wonderful 130 reviews £116 includes taxes & fees 16 Oct - 17 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-16&endDate=2025-10-17&selected=9625723&PinnedHotelID=9625723&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor pool, a heated pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/4000000/3950000/3945600/3945523/04499032.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Mantra Nelson Bay Nelson Bay - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 8.6 Excellent 1,526 reviews £170 includes taxes & fees 16 Oct - 17 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-16&endDate=2025-10-17&selected=3945523&PinnedHotelID=3945523&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109190000/109185300/109185221/63e4bf09.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### NEW 2 bed, walk to everything!
