Welcome to another year. Hope you are all enjoying a happy one so far!
A trip to Watson's Bay Beach Club this week inspired a blog post. Not the best time to go, I would recommend a quieter, less crowded week day.
I've been wanting to see the 2nd stage of the hotel renovation and thought you'd like to see inside too, if you haven't been there already.
This is the Sunset Room. Available for functions and weddings catered for by chef Pete Evans, but open to all at other times. I'm looking forward to coming here for dinner and watching the sun set over the harbour.
I love the casual elegant feel created by the neutral colour scheme. So inspiring with off white panelled walls, linen curtains, oak floors, long timber tables with white and rattan chairs, vintage nautical and natural found objects.
It's all in keeping with the original art deco hotel and suits the area with it's grand old homes and cute weatherboard fishermen's cottages.
Love love love ! these hooks with shells and grain sack bags filled with leaves.
How have you been spending the new year?
We took a 20 mile bicycle ride to Ojai on a perfect beach day. When we returned, we walked to the breakwater to view the lowest tide of the year. It was incredible to be standing on sand in the channel where we kayak. All in all, a spectacular new year.
