Young children and pets are not recommended due to the challenges of the rainforest and creek.

No-smoking indoors.

Local Area:

Coledale is a rare unspoiled piece of paradise, set between the dramatic, dreamy escarpment and lots of little beaches. It has a laid back village atmosphere, with a patrolled beach, surfers beach, sea pool, rock pools, bush walks, 2 cafes, and a great video shop.

The very popular Coledale Markets is held on the 4th Sunday of each month at the local primary school. Just a few minutes drive 'south' to Austinmer and Thirroul, you will find more beaches, a Bi Lo, good fruit and veg, Thai food, homewares, and more cafes. A few minutes drive 'north', you can lunch at the "Scarborough Pub", head for Hangglide OZ at Bald Hill Stanwell Park, or picnic in the Royal National Park."

Coledale is about an hours drive south of Sydney and a 20 minutes drive to the city of Wollongong.

Pretty special

Our stay in this cosy & quaint renovated Coledale miners cottage was you guessed it.....pretty special. This is not your average off the shelf accommodation but a place with real charm and character. We had a few minor issues that come with a property of this age but they were quickly, efficiently and pleasantly resolved by our host. For the location and experience this property offers I would definitely stay again.

Paradise found

This is the most peaceful place I have ever stayed. Lush rainforest surrounds and the stunning beaches await. The house is rustic but well equipped and comfortable. I loved the outdoor shower and the bed was so comfortable. Sleeping to the sounds of the running creek and local wildlife was heaven and just the ticket to truly relax.

Loved our stay

We had a short but amazing stay in Coledale! The property was in the perfect location, a short stroll to the beach and close to amazing shops and restaurants/cafes! We wish we could’ve stayed longer to explore the surroundings! High recommend staying here and definitely will be rebooking here in the future! Thank you 😊

Cosy and well equipped

Nicola (and Ausilia) were extremely pleasant and helpful to deal with. I took my overseas friend here for a visit to get a taste of life away from the big smoke of Sydney. The cottage is very cosy and well equipped and the beds comfortable, with crisp cotton sheets and summer weight doona. Extra blankets should you need them. I loved the outdoor (heated) shower which you can take looking out into the rainforest garden, it is very secluded and completely private. You get woken up by the sounds of birds and the gentle stream at the back of the property, the view into the trees is amazing so I left the curtains open day and night. I would love to come back!

Delightful eclectic interior made the experience.

Charming, simple miners cottage amongst wonderful forrest of ferns and cedar Forrest. Interior boasts real furniture not a collection of IKEA. Bed very comfy and beautiful crisp cotton sheets. Add a wood burning fire and perfect was achieved. Couldn’t recommend more.

Coledale Sanctuary

We had a perfect stay at this gorgeous cottage! A serene and private location surrounded by rainforest and just short walk to the beach. The cottage itself was very clean and had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay including the bonus fireplace and bottle of vins. Thanks to Nicola for arranging an easy check-in and for hosting us. We hope to return!

Perfect getaway

The property comes with a beautiful feeling of calm and privacy, being surrounded by a stunning layer of bushland. That said, it's within walking distance to the beach, hospitality and train station and a short drive to the surrounding townships. Thanks for our stay- it was exactly what we were after.

Incredible cottage in a wonderful town

My partner and I along with another couple had such a wonderful two days at Nicola's cottage in Coledale. It felt like a home away from home. Beautifully decorated and a great space for two couples. Nicola was fantastic to communicate and the location was perfect for a relaxing weekend in nature. We loved all the extra touches and the wine was delicious! Can't wait to come back!
