Murrays Beach

Reviewed By 862marieq - Murrumbateman, Australia

Stayed here 4 days - never been here before it is soo beautiful and serene. Has a beautiful well equipped play area for the children plus undercover bench seating and BBQ's. Children can easily ride their bikes along the foreshore. There is also a jetty if you don't have a dinghy to put in the lake for fishing. The Lakehouse Cafe is nearby. Approx 90 minutes drive from the south western suburbs of Sydney. And approximately 45KM south of Newcastle, close to Swansea.
