Inspection By Appointment Steeped in local history and uniquely positioned with main road frontage ideal for a business or tourism venture, Bittern Cottage has been a landmark for more than a century. Built in 1915 as the homestead for a rural property and more recently run as a popular French provincial restaurant, the Victorian-style building retains its original features with open fireplaces, formal rooms, a delightful front veranda and colourful traditional gardens.
