My husband and I spent 2 weeks travelling up the Eastern Coast of Australia, and by accident found the Smoky Cape Lighthouse. It is some distance from the nearest town, and we even met a couple of kangaroos on the road to the lighthouse!

This became one of the most memorable stays of our holiday. The owners of the B&B are incredibly hospitable and kind, allowing guests to use their kitchen and BBQ facilities. The 3 course breakfast the next morning was definately one of the best we had our entire 6 week trip around the world. The room we stayed in was lovely, with a four poster bed. But the real highlight was being able to walk the short distance up to the lighthouse late at night, and watch the beam from the lighthouse going out to sea. The view at night of the stars and sea was nearly matched the next morning, by the stunning coastline.

Overall a really individual, beautifully maintained property, made even more special by an incomparable location and wonderfully hospitable hosts.
