National Parks

We are located just a short drive from all of the magnificent National Parks in the area for you to explore for the day before returning to the comfort of your room to relax and re-energise. Ben Boyd National Park is just one of many of the magnificent places on offer where you can immerse yourself in nature and take in some of the most breathtaking scenery you will experience.

Coastal Wilderness

Visit Davidson’s Whaling Station and see the relics of the try-works and read about life of the 19th century whalers. Visit the Seahorse Inn built by Benjamin Boyde, just 8km’s south of Eden at Boydtown. Built in 1843 using convict labour and named after his steamship. Drive to Boyd’s Tower approximately 34km’s south of Eden where Benjamin Boyd built an elaborate sandstone structure with the intention of having the structure serve as a lighthouse. Instead, the tower was used for whale spotting.
