The New South Wales region

Sydney's Northern Beaches are only a couple of hours from the beautiful Blue Mountains and the NSW Wine region of the Hunter Valley. Both are popular day trips for overseas visitors. Taronga Zoo offers some of the best views of Sydney Harbour and, only 20mins by car, is a great day trip. North Head and Governor Phillip Look out both have spectacular views.

Don't forget to visit the very famous Palm Beach (otherwise known as Summer Bay) and while there hike up to Barrenjoey Lighthouse. On the way back to fabulous Freshwater, pull in to the Newport Arms Hotel for a bite to eat or just a drink.

Drop in to Manly Ocean World and walk under the sharks and experience the thrills of Manly Water Works water slides. Only half an hour on the ferry from Manly across gorgeous Sydney Harbour is Sydney City itself.

Aside from being close to the beach, Sand Castle is walking distance to children's playgrounds and parks.

Tennis courts are available for hire at Keirle Park and Warringah Golf course is only 5 minutes drive away. Warringah Mall has great shops and department stores and is only 5-10mins by car.

The headland offers some of the most beautiful coastal walks in Sydney. Cosmopolitan Manly is only about 25 minutes walk or 10 mins in the car.

Guestbook for Sand Castle

A wonderful location with amazing views. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sandcastles. Close proximity to Manly. Spacious with plenty of room for our party of 6 adults to spread out. Very good value for money
Ann - May 2008.

Magnificent views! Lovely welcoming house, fully equipped in every way. A home away from home. Everything necessary for a great holiday provided here at Sand Castle. Private but central to whatever one needs. Top rating 10/10. Thanks Michael and Caroline. We'll be back.
Rosemary. Rosemary - May 2008.

Very nice property, well located. Very nice beach at walking distance. Every claim on the description is true. We were 4 adults and 3 children and had plenty of room. Martin - April 2008.

Frank and Elizabeth have spent one month having a most relaxing holiday in a lovely house with a wonderful sea view. Thank you very much and we would be happy to return sometime. We came - we were delighted - would come again if invited.
Frank & Elizabeth - June 2008

Absolute Value for Money - We will be Back Soon
Justin - July 2008

We emigrated from Reading, England with our two small children. What a fantastic way to start our new lives in Australia. We have thoroughly enjoyed our time here, and watching the whales every day has been fantastic - we will miss the views and closeness to the sea. Caroline and Michael have been very helpful and welcoming throughout our stay.
David and Louise Oct 6-Nov 9 2008


What can we say about the Sand Castle, but wow! What a way to finish a spectacular holiday in Australia. The place was spacious enough to be able to absorb seven of us with ease. The “outdoor” covered deck with its opening roof was a real bonus. The balcony was safe enough to let our 3 year old play without worry.

We had a wonderful time there with spectacular views in all directions, especially out to sea. When we arrived we were made to feel very welcome by Caroline who helped us to settle in very quickly.

Curl Curl and Freshwater beaches were a few minutes walk away. We also walked to Manly in less than half an hour.

The photos of the Sand Castle you see on the web-site are what you find when you arrive.

We still cannot get over how lucky we were to find such superb accommodation and we would highly recommend it.
Richard - November 2008

Many thanks to you both for a very enjoyable week at your very relaxing and peaceful home. It was a first visit for myself and my daughter and we loved the fantastic views and beautiful beaches nearby. So we are all very sorry to be leaving. Many thanks to Caroline and Michael.
Ita - November 2008

Thank you Caroline and Michael for a wonderful 12 days at Sand Castle - we couldn't have had a more perfect venue to be the "base" for our daughter's wedding and to host many of the family and friends who were here for the big day. Thank you once again and we'll hope to be back one day!

A home from home but with great views! Caroline and Michael made us feel welcome and relaxed in their home. We will definitely be recommending Sand Castle to our friends and family. It's a great base to start a holiday and the near-by beaches are fantastic and safe. With our very best wishes to our hosts (and everyone else who follows us!)
Sandra - January 2009


We have thoroughly enjoyed our time at Sand Castle. The ever changing sea views and proximity to beaches are fantastic. Caroline and Michael were very helpful even down to the loan of forgotten cuff links for our black tie family wedding. Many thanks.
Richard - April 2009

The views are amazing, accommodation spectacular and walks to die for! Thank you for allowing us to share your wonderful piece of paradise. April 2009
