Description
We live in the lovely seaside town of Austinmer, twenty minutes north of Wollongong, and about 1 1/2 hours south of Sydney by train. With the escarpment behind us and the beach in front, it is a beautiful place to stop for a while. We have two small dogs.

English: Fluent
Accommodation
We have a small two bedroom cottage with its own bathroom and kitchen. It is on the other side of the garden and is quite private, apart from the occasional visit from our dogs, Frank and Stanley.
What else ...
There is plenty to do in the area, walks in the escarpment, swimming, ocean pools and beaches. We are five minutes walk to two lovely beaches with ocean pools, rock pools and occasionally good surf. Only five minutes north and south of here are more great surfing beaches. The Royal National Park is only thirty minutes north with lots of good walking tracks and places to swim. Sydney and all it has to offer is only a train ride away to the north.
