BookThe New South Wales region
New South Wales lies on the east coast of Australia. The State capital, Sydney, is Australia’s premier gateway and the largest city in Australia. Well serviced by flights from across the world, NSW also has a network of regional airlines, trains, buses and coach services making it easy to get around.
The regions within three hours’ drive from Sydney offer a world of astonishing natural attractions - stunning wine regions in the Hunter Valley and Southern Highlands, beaches on the Central Coast and around Wollongong, World Heritage national parks in the Blue Mountains and at Barrington Tops and spectacular coastal and country scenery. Further afield, the Snowy Mountains is a year-round destination for winter sports and summer hiking; beautiful and unique, Lord Howe Island is a World Heritage-listed island paradise.
Country NSW, stretching across the rich agricultural lands and western plains, is criss-crossed with food and wine trails and touring routes amidst beautiful natural landscapes. Outback NSW has a mix of vast national parks, quirky towns, a thriving arts scene, rich and lasting Aboriginal heritage and the awe-inspiring magic of the desert. The North Coast of NSW provides a taste of classic Aussie surf culture with great surf beaches and a relaxed lifestyle, while the South Coast has a collection of stunning natural treasures - more than 30 national parks, marine parks and reserves.
The Sydney / Bilgola Plateau area
North of the city, the beautiful stretch of coastline from Manly to Palm Beach has a relaxed beachside ambience and plenty of things to see and do.
With the Pacific Ocean on one side and Pittwater on the other, the peninsula covers about 18 km of open coastline and has excellent dining, surf beaches, waterways and parklands.
Bordering Pittwater to the west is Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park, which has pockets of rainforest with creeks, waterfalls, Aboriginal rock art and campsites.
Nearby ocean pools along the northern beaches are at Avalon,
Bilgola, Newport and Palm Beach.

Despite the weather letting us down, this tranquil cottage did not. For our last three days in Australia, having been there a month, we wanted somewhere close to the beach, a decent drive to Sydney city, but private, and this was the ideal place to stay. Extremely well kept, and suited our needs to a tee |
