With its postcard-pretty shoreline, towering pine trees filled with chattering rainbow lorikeets and tranquil green spaces, the charms of Cottesloe are instantly winsome. But below the aesthetic surface you’ll discover a neighbourhood marked by its close community and easy amenity, with numerous boutique retailers, gourmet places to eat, drink and shop, and Perth’s most prestigious schools just a stone’s throw away.
A short wander reveals diverse opportunities for recreation. The popular coastal walking and running track winds past paddleboarders catching the whitewater over shallow reef, fish darting under their feet, while surfers near the cove compete for waves. Early-morning swimmers plunge into the water no matter the season. Just up the hill, Perth’s most scenic golf course and tennis courts offer excellent views and the chance to rub shoulders with fellow residents over a friendly game. Or if you prefer more leisurely pursuits, simply walk out your front door and find a seat at an alfresco table for a fine beverage and a spot of people-watching.
Whether you’re after a quick coffee, light meal or a fresh pastry at a quirky local bakery-meets-cafe or a fine-dining experience, there’s a locale to suit in Cottesloe. The suburb is also home to Napoleon Street, a boutique and eatery-filled strip, the gourmand’s paradise Boatshed Markets and is only a short drive away from Claremont’s major shopping district.
