Coledale is a charming beachside village north of Wollongong. Fifty years ago, Coledale was one of the many coastal coal mining villages which lay to the north of Wollongong. With the decline of coal in the area and the arrival of regular electric train service to Sydney it quickly acquired a certain chic charm. Commuters decided it was within their price range and still close enough to Sydney. Today it is one of the most popular beaches north of Thirroul. Holidaymakers come for extended breaks and summer weekends. The seductive combination of a sandy 250-metre beach nestled between rocky headlands, rock platforms pockmarked with rock pools alive with sea creatures, two ocean pools (one for toddlers), comprehensive amenities, a beach edged by grass which is ideal for picnicking, a backdrop of 45-year-old Norfolk pines and cafes serving decent coffee, gelatos and inner-city cuisine demonstrates that its popularity is justified. Location Coledale is a beachside town/suburb north of Wollongong. It is 15 km north of Wollongong and 73 km from Sydney via the Bulli Pass. A more scenic, but slower, route down the coast via Stanwell Park is 70 km. Our home is a two-storey, 3 bedrooms, beachfront dream. The floorplan consists of an open plan kitchen that doubles up as an entertaining space. There is also has a huge deck overlooking the ocean and headlands. A simple stroll down the driveway and across the road and you are on the beach, the perfect location! There is also 5 large beds, one perfect for the kids! The kids living room comes complete with a smart TV, 3 bunk beds (in the third bedroom) - the perfect hangout! The house sleeps 10 adults and/or children (including the bunk beds) comfortably or two young families. It has WiFi, Netflix, BBQ, and laundry facilities. All bed linen and bath towels are supplied. There is also 1 bathroom and 2 free-standing toilets.
