Relaxing at seaside
THE QCWA Flying Fish Point branch has welcomed its first new guest to its reopened seaside cottage.

The cottage suffered smoke and other damage after fire destroyed the branch’s hall in March this year.
But now the branch is celebrating the renovated cottage.
“After lots of hard work, dedication and incredible support from our wonderful members and the Innisfail community, our little piece of paradise is officially open again,” they said in a Facebook post.
“Fresh paint, a fresh new feel, airconditioning to keep our guests cool – and perhaps a relaxing glass of wine to enjoy the seaside atmosphere – our cottage is ready to welcome guests once again.
“These walls will soon hold new memories, familiar faces and many happy stays.
“We have so much to be proud of, and none of this would have been possible without the helping hands, generosity and community spirit that brought our cottage back to life.
“A very special welcome to Jim (surname withheld).
“Thank you for being our very first official guest since reopening.”
New bookings are invited by calling 0457 971 111.
