With infinite stretches of coastline, wonderful wilderness, cosy accommodation and plenty of restaurants to choose from, you’ll be spoilt for choice when looking a romantic getaway in Lake Mac.
Here are some of Lake Mac’s most romantic weekend getaways:
Luxury Lovers
How does a private bungalow right on the water sound for your weekend away? Just a 90-minute drive up the coast from Sydney you’ll find the stunning Caves Coastal Bar and Bungalows. Its adults-only Beach Bungalows feature a king size bed, a deep freestanding couples’ bath and a private deck with hanging egg chair, where you can curl up with your special someone.
Take your Valentine somewhere extra impressive by experiencing Lake Macquarie’s newest modern contemporary Italian, 8 at Trinity, located right on the waterfront and boasting mouth-watering mains. For a more intimate atmosphere, head to Warners Bay and visit Sephardim where you can indulge in a sensational Mediterranean feast.
Sunny Sweethearts
Looking to escape the world and enjoy a weekend away with just you and your lover? Stay at one of Lake Macquarie’s holiday rentals – we recommend Serenity by the Lake for the ultimate couples’ retreat. Wake up slowly to stunning views of Lake Macquarie from your bedroom window, then enjoy the complimentary country breakfast provided by the hosts that you can prepare at your leisure. This sweet spot is also prime for a sunset over the Lake, whilst toasting marshmallows by the firepit – romantic nightfall views guaranteed!
During the day, slip over to one of Lake Mac’s beautiful beaches to soak up some sunshine. At Redhead Beach you’ll find local favourite, Cargo Espresso Bar, the perfect spot to grab a coffee and a bite to eat from the delicious summer menu. For dinner, don’t look any further than Belmont 16s, where you can choose from one of six restaurants. Featuring everything from burgers to fresh seafood and succulent steaks to epic New York style pizzas, this place has something for everyone!
Adventuring Amours
If your perfect getaway involves cuddling up beneath the stars before retreating to a cosy tent for two, then one of the Lake Mac Holiday Parks is perfect for you. Choose between four fabulous holiday parks, each with powered sites and villa accommodation. For couples, we recommend Belmont Lakeside Holiday Park where you and your loved one can experience breathtaking views and an island-like atmosphere at this unique park that is almost completely encircled by Lake Macquarie. If you happen to be stuck in a love triangle with your furry friend, Belmont Lakeside offers pet-friendly camping and accommodation year-round.
