Coast bound? 5 places to take the kids near the Bay this weekend

It was once a grocery store, a service station and a much-loved icecreamery: now the building at 38 Princes Highway, Mogo, is starting life as a 1950s-style icecreamery and diner.The former Mogo Icecreamery was given a striking old-school American style makeover in April of this year, and the result is part Happy Days and part I Love Lucy.<img alt="IMG_0427" class="richtext-image full-width" height="1024" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/IMG_0427.width-800.jpg" width="800">The transformation includes new seating booths inside, the removal of the front window so diners can look out over the Princes Highway, and a new outdoor area with a sandpit for the kids.The new HWY 1 menu includes gourmet hotdogs, American style waffles and, of course, a selection of 26 heavenly icecream flavours. The diner’s milkshakes and thickshakes are made directly from the icecream, with ginger and liquorice among the most unusual.<img alt="IMG_0430" class="richtext-image full-width" height="1066" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/IMG_0430.width-800.jpg" width="800">HWY 1 owner Heather Birss says Pop’s Diner, from the hit Netflix series Riverdale, was also part of the inspiration for the diner. She describes the retro makeover as &quot;a fun, creative project for [husband] Clay and I&quot;.“We&#x27;ve had local people chip in and help with absolutely everything,” Heather says.<img alt="IMG_0425" class="richtext-image full-width" height="600" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/IMG_0425.width-800.jpg" width="800">“We had the concept in our brains and it was all hands on deck. Clay and I did a lot of the work but so many people from the surrounding areas helped bring it to life.“People are loving it so far, and we can’t wait to welcome lots of new visitors over summer.”<img alt="IMG_6687" class="richtext-image full-width" height="1459" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/IMG_6687.width-800.jpg" width="800">Mogo Icecreamery has been a staple on the Mogo itinerary for decades, with previous owner Brian Daly behind the counter serving double and single scoops to locals and holidaying Canberrans for 23 years. Sadly, Brian passed away earlier this year.Heather and husband Clayton, who own the icecreamery and the block of land it’s on, decided to keep the tradition going by opening a place for people to stop and have a cold drink or treat while exploring Mogo.<img alt="IMG_0434" class="richtext-image full-width" height="600" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/IMG_0434.width-800.jpg" width="800">“Mogo has always been somewhere people go – and that includes locals – to buy something a little bit different,” Heather says.“The specialty shops and the little galleries always draw a crowd.“So it&#x27;s nice to have something different, something special and unique for people to see and be part of.”<img alt="IMG_0424" class="richtext-image full-width" height="1066" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/IMG_0424.width-800.jpg" width="800">And if you drive a vintage car there’s good news: you get to park in the VIP spot right in front of the diner.HWY 1 Mogo Icecreamery and Diner, located at 38 Princes Highway, Mogo, is open Thursday to Sunday, 10am–4pm.

The story behind Mogo Icecreamery's 1950s-style makeover

Ahead of summer 2023/24, we ducked down to the Bay to suss out the fish and chip situation. Here&#x27;s an update on where to go for the best fish and chips this holiday season.<h3 data-block-key="6h9gi">Berny’s at Batehaven</h3><img alt="IMG_0408" class="richtext-image full-width" height="1066" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/IMG_0408.width-800.jpg" width="800">ADDRESS: 246 Beach Road, Batehaven NSW PARKING: Easy (park across the road and walk across Beach Road at the lights) TABLES FOR EATING IN? Limited TIME FROM JOINING THE QUEUE TO EATING: 38 minutes COST: $$ CRISPY FACTOR: 10/10 BURGERS AND CHIKO ROLLS AVAILABLE? NoA few years ago Berny’s had a sticker on the window: Voted Best Fish and Chips in NSW. It’s not there anymore, but definitely should be. You’ll wait a fair while for your fish and chips at Berny’s but when they arrive — wowee. The chips are super crispy, as is the coating on the fish and the seafood.<img alt="IMG_0414" class="richtext-image full-width" height="600" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/IMG_0414.width-800.jpg" width="800">We ordered the seafood basket, which came with a piece of fish, a serve of chips, a prawn cutlet, a seafood stick and two calamari rings. It didn’t quite feed two adults.<img alt="IMG_0412" class="richtext-image full-width" height="727" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/IMG_0412.width-800.jpg" width="800">I highly recommend heading to the flying fox park across the road from Berny’s (next to Clydeview Caravan Park) with the kids, and sending one parent over to order and wait for the food while the kids play. Then eat your chips hot and crispy on a picnic rug.<h3 data-block-key="d1td3">Rock Face Cafe and Takeaway, Mogo</h3><img alt="IMG_0439" class="richtext-image full-width" height="600" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/IMG_0439.width-800.jpg" width="800">ADDRESS: Unit 3/31 Sydney Street, Mogo NSW PARKING: Medium TABLES FOR EATING IN?

This is more a ‘we’ve got a huge family and everyone wants something different’ option, rather than a place to head for fresh fish.<h3 data-block-key="2n92s">The Boat Shed, Batemans Bay</h3><img alt="IMG_0371" class="richtext-image full-width" height="600" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/IMG_0371.width-800.jpg" width="800">ADDRESS: 1 Clyde Street, Batemans Bay NSW PARKING: Hard TABLES FOR EATING IN?

The fish and chips were golden and crispy, and delicious. The only downside was I left hungry: the portion size just wasn’t big enough!<img alt="IMG_0373" class="richtext-image full-width" height="600" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/IMG_0373.width-800.jpg" width="800">Head to the Boat Shed if you want to enjoy your fish and chips right next to the ocean.And the winner is: Berny’s at Batehaven, but make sure you’re well prepared for a long wait.

Summer 2023/24: Where to get the best fish and chips in Bateman's Bay

Property

What if you got bored during Canberra’s second COVID lockdown and just decided to, you know, join forces with your friends to buy an entire motel in Batemans Bay?This is exactly what a group of Canberra friends did while locked indoors with their young families in 2021. Yearning for a passion project, the young property industry professionals banded together to transform an old 1980s motel in Batehaven.<img alt="222-beach-road-batehaven-nsw-2536-41361-image-0-20210714023205185480-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/222-beach-road-batehaven-nsw-2536-41361-image-.width-800.jpg" width="800">After spotting <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/222-beach-road-batehaven-nsw-2536-41361/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this ad for the Abel Tasman Motel on Zango</a>, they put in a bid on behalf of the group - and it was accepted.“We all grew up in Canberra so Batemans Bay was a big part of our childhoods,” co-owner Yanna says.“We thought maybe if we created the kind of motel we ourselves would love to stay in, a much more modern experience, then surely that would attract other people too.”<img alt="Isla_060422_218128" class="richtext-image full-width" height="600" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/Isla_060422_218128.width-800.jpg" width="800">During the eight-month overhaul of the Abel Tasman, the group of friends travelled up and down the Princes Highway to work with Canberra-based Monarch Building Solutions on their vision for a boutique offering.The original motel’s double garage was torn down to make way for an Instagram-worthy pool and pool house area, while the manager’s residence was transformed into two suites overlooking the ocean.<img alt="Isla_060422_218151" class="richtext-image full-width" height="1066" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/Isla_060422_218151.width-800.jpg" width="800">The Isla now stands out as a modern Mediterranean dream in a line of 1980s chocolate brown brick motels along Beach Road. The team engaged Sydney and Byron Bay-based <a href="https://thosearchitects.com.au/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Those Architects</a> to help transform the façade and completely reinvent the interiors of the property.<img alt="zajxdBfQ" class="richtext-image full-width" height="1035" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/zajxdBfQ.width-800.jpg" width="800">“We’ve really tried to create a destination rather than just a stop-by motel,” Yanna says.“We wanted it to feel more boutique and luxury; encapsulating that raw Australian coastal vibe whilst also respecting our European roots.<img alt="E33I71yw" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/E33I71yw.width-800.jpg" width="800">“It has everything you think of when you think of holidaying on the European coastline: arches, beautiful greenery and flowers that grow up beside buildings, and some of those stunning ocean colours.”Canberrans are loving The Isla but so are Sydneysiders, who make up around 50 per cent of motel guests, with holidaymakers from Victoria also checking-in regularly.The Isla has one pet-friendly room, partnering with Canberra&#x27;s WOOOF Dog Grooming to provide doggy care packs for guests staying with their furry friends.<img alt="8-JJoGWg" class="richtext-image full-width" height="1119" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/8-JJoGWg.width-800.jpg" width="800">The group is already on the lookout for its next project, likely a sister motel to The Isla.“All I can say is watch this space,&quot; Yanna says.For more information and to book head to <a href="https://www.theisla.com.au/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">www.theisla.com.au</a>Top two photos of The Isla by Anson Smart.

A group of Canberra friends turned a Batemans Bay motel into their dream holiday destination

Located in a quiet street in Tomakin, this incredible property showcases the best of coastal design: wood finishings and high ceilings framing seaside views.<a href="https://zango.com.au/agencies/blackshaw-real-estate-coastal/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Blackshaw Real Estate Coastal</a> sales agent <a href="/agents/pat-jameson/">Pat Jameson</a> describes <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">79 Forest Parade, Tomakin</a>, as “the ultimate beach house”.<img alt="79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349-image-0-20230927050134911162-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349-image-.width-800.jpg" width="800">“This is one where if you want a home by the beach with all the comforts of modern conveniences, you can’t do better,” Pay says.The house features three bedrooms and two bathrooms across an open–plan design from south coast builder Rob Routledge.“The master bedroom is at the back of the house, with a sliding door onto the deck and a large round porthole window looking out to the tree canopy,&quot; Pat says.“The other two bedrooms are at the front of the house, but with one at each end.”<img alt="79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349-image-0-20230927050136160452-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349-image-.width-800_TgOqWaK.jpg" width="800">The home is located at the end of a cul-de-sac and features timber-clad cathedral ceilings, custom-built windows, marble benchtops in the kitchen, a spa bath, Sydney bluegum timber floors and a (heated) outdoor shower.“It’s got a nice feeling of space because of the high ceilings and the attention to detail,” Pat says.Storage space in the roof, a separate laundry and a double lock-up garage mean the next owner will never run out of space.<img alt="79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349-image-0-20230927050136619239-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349-image-.width-800_2koVJKL.jpg" width="800">“A lot of the other properties in Tomakin are on the flat [land], so they don’t have a view and have more of a standard residential layout,” Pay says.“This one’s got a bit more character than most with its unique forest position overlooking the breaking waves of Barlings Beach and pink rocks off the tip of Broulee Island.”The home has recently come onto the market after being in the same owner’s care for 20 years, Pat says.<img alt="79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349-image-0-20230927050137797615-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349-image-.width-800_ZGveBio.jpg" width="800">“It’s had one owner – it’s been their personal holiday home – and in that time, it’s been very lightly used and very well-cared for so it presents as a much newer house,” she says.Despite the name of the street – Forest Parade – it is the stunning and panoramic views to the ocean that set this home apart from others by the seaside.Pat has two words to describe the outlook from the windows: “glorious views”.<img alt="79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349-image-0-20230927050138270029-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349-image-.width-800_yajPB5S.jpg" width="800">“It’s one of the best views I’ve seen in that particular street and one of the better views in Tomakin,” she says.“I’ve been in very few properties that have views to Broulee Island as it is pretty rare.”The new owners can take in the views from a timber deck, alongside friends and family, or relax with a glass of something nice.“For many houses with views, the best views are from the second storey – this isn’t true here,” she says.“In this one, the views are good from both storeys.”<img alt="79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349-image-0-20230927050134443916-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349-image-.width-800_Kgmd4V2.jpg" width="800">The home is split with the main living areas and garage on a single level.A mezzanine on the second floor with a studio and rumpus room provides more relaxation space, an area to work from home or easy access for older individuals.Pat says that while the Tomakin area is the ideal location for anyone looking to spend time in the water, it is a hidden gem on the coast that has grown in popularity in recent years due to its natural beauty, community facilities and ease of accessibility from Canberra.<img alt="79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349-image-0-20230927050139576290-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349-image-.width-800_pveuMfy.jpg" width="800">“It’s got beautiful beaches, including a beautiful cove, a surfing beach and a pet-friendly beach. But it also has very nice cafes, Tomakin Social Club and an IGA nearby.”Pat says the slower pace of life and closeness to nature means the property can serve families and individuals in different stages of life.“While it’s the perfect holiday home, it’s also ideal for people looking to transition to retirement, with garage and main floorplan located on ground level,” she says.“It’s got broad appeal.”Number 79 Forest Parade, Tomakin, is for sale between $1,400,000-$1,500,000.<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/79-forest-parade-tomakin-nsw-2537-87349/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/contemporary-coastal-design-matched-for-beauty-with-ocean-views-in-tomakin/709231" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Riotact</a>.
