a short walk from watson's bay is camp cove...narrow little streets full of charming heritage fisherman's cottages. a haven nestled between the massive sandstone cliffs at the entrance to sydney harbour, secluded harbour beach and naval base.
this cute cottage is an all time favourite of mine
love the charcoal weatherboard, white woodwork and nautical touches
I love the little cottage with the nautical touches too. It's a little squeezed in there amongst the "big guys", but so sweet. Great to see the skyline from the beach..., you don't get that everywhere (not at all)!!
So beautiful! I love those cottages. I can only imagine living in a little place like that. I would love to see the insides, too. We went to Watson's Bay for lunch one day (can't remember the restaraunt - maybe Doyles?) when we visited my sister there in '03. It was an overcast day when we were there but still lovely- it was nice to see it on a sunny day. Thanks for sharing!
So many absolutely adorable homes and images there. I am loving the blue home and the one with the cream with the blue trim.....definitely my faves. I came across some fantastic old wooden paddles this past weekend which would look divine in any of those homes xo
beautiful beautiful beautiful my goodness this takes me back. last time I was at camp cove i was 15 and trying to impress a boy .. so jumped off that cliff that jump off there into the harbour.. sadly we had to climb back up the rock face.. these memories are so vivid.. and looking at those beach shots it amazing how strong my memory is of that day...
Those beach shots are FABULOUS.. just love the clouds!!! Hope you are having a great week.. ciao xxx Julie
What a beautiful little town Cheryl! I would love to stroll down the streets there and look at all those beautiful cottages and gardens. Love the view of the city too. What a paradise!
Making me homesick - Camp Cove was far more sophisticated than going to Neilsen's Park when I was growing up, though my mother preferred Parsley Bay. I value them more with hindsight now I live in the Bay Area - California water is COLD!
Such beautiful photos. Love the view of Sydney with the ferry in the distance. Love the huge
ReplyDeleteHibiscus tree and flowers. Love the cottages.
Love it all. Great shots of a great location.

ps. such beautiful flowers.
Camp Cove is such heaven - i used to go there and study in the afternoons when I was a student. Gorgeous pics!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you live in paradise. What a lucky lady you are.

Wow. Very pretty. Reminds me of the very few old-Florida-type small towns that are still around.
