Bed & Breakfast, Self-contained apartment

Wake to the sound of breakers on the shore at Austinmer's Glastonbury Bed and Breakfast. Beautifully appointed and decorated rooms await you. All of this is just a short walk through Glastonbury Gardens to unspoilt Little Austinmer beach - a glimpse of how Sydney used to be.

An easy walk to buses and the train station, or bring your bike and explore the famous coastal cycle-path all the way to Lake Illawarra. (Bike rentals can also be arranged in advance.)

A stylish and serene, self-contained 1-bedroom apartment, Glastonbury Bed and Breakfast offers comfort and privacy. We provide full breakfast provisions, including good quality teas and coffee. We provide organically-grown food when-ever we can, and can cater for special dietary needs.

A separate entrance leads through your own courtyard to a sunny living/kitchen area, with a modern, fully-equipped kitchen, a flat-screen TV with DVD player and a library of films and music. There is a separate bathroom off the hallway. Your bedroom with Queen-sized bed, has a leafy outlook to the park, and the sound of the ocean to sooth your soul.

Enjoy beautiful Austinmer, nestled between the Illawarra Escarpment and the Tasman Sea. Austinmer is the jewel of the spectacular Illawarra coast. It is part of the area known as the Illawarra 'Northern Villages', which boast wonderful cafes, restaurants, shops and galleries.

Locality

Austinmer is one and a quarter hours on the train or a spectacular one-hour drive south of Sydney. Twenty minutes on the train or in your car south to Wollongong.

Austinmer Beach is a clean, safe, patrolled beach, with two tidal sea pools. Watch for the whales and dolphins swimming past, or take advantage of the surf.

Drive or walk along the headlands to the north and the Royal National Park. Or go south to the thriving centre of Thirroul, with fantastically-decorated Anita’s Theatre, shops, pool, and nursery, and on to the city of Wollongong. A short walk takes you up the spectacular, tree-covered Escarpment, or just enjoy walking to the local cafes and shops.
