Berowra Waters Inn

It is unique due to its being accessed only by private ferry or airplane, as well as being one of Pritzker Prize winning Australian architect Glenn Murcutt's[1] only venues regularly open to the public.

For many years Berowra Waters Inn represented the cutting edge of both Australian design and cuisine.

The Edwardian-style teahouse had major engineering flaws however and a decision was made to close and redesign the venue.

Between 1976 and 1983, the architect Glenn Murcutt redesigned the property using a "distinctive Australian vernacular style: corrugated tin roof over glass louvre windows, on a Sydney sandstone base, set among eucalypts and angophoras".
