We have endeavoured to combine comfortable and stylish accommodation, with the charm and authenticity that a bus of this era has in bucketloads. This classic bus is surrounded by the ever changing landscape of the estuary, with its diverse wildlife and dramatic views of the velvety hills of the Richmond Ranges. In the summer months the beautiful evening sun nearly always turns into an eye-popping sunset. An enchanting vintage stay, lovingly refurbished, in a truly unspoilt place.
