Mine is Scotts Head. About 50kms south of Coffs Harbour 12 kms off the Pacific Highway.
Its a beautiful small coastal town. My parents live there. There are only a few hundred people live there. It's really laid back, with beautiful beaches.
Oh & the bestest food ever at my mum's cafe!
We love Apollo Bay, we stay inland just a bit, in some beautiful cabins in the Ottoway ranges, LOve the rainforests and waterfalls. And a plus is the beach is just a short drive too. The kids love it there and we enjoy the great ocean rd drive.
We went to South West Rocks last year. It was lovely.
I love the Snowy Mountains.
I also like Lennox Head.
TBH it doesn't really matter where I go - anywhere that my family is staying is my favourite place. We try and go on holidays together and rent flats or houses next door to each other. My children love spending time with their aunts and uncles and cousins.
I've been away with my ILs before and it was awful - just like being at home with them so I would also say anywhere that my ILs aren't :P
South West Rocks is nice. We went to the bowling club there for my 20th birthday. Memories. We lived in Scotts Head at the time. I still hate that DH made me move, but I'd rather be with him!
A lovely country town in central west NSW, is Mudgee,terrific wineries,beautiful local produce,my Dad had a farm here when i was a little girl,and i take my kids back their to show them around,such a peacful place. Also another place we spend holidays at is down the south coast of NSW,Ulladulla/Merry Beach,my hubby use to live down their and he takes us to all the places he use to hang out at when he was young,...Oh those memories,lol.
I really loved Alice Springs its such beauitful country out there....
Litchfield NP in Outer Darwin Love the water falls there ( but not the sand flys )
Ellis Beach Carins stunning...
Sunshine coast...
Now that we live in Melbourne we like to go down to Inverloch a smallish ( Not in summer) sea side town but thats because my parents live there so we get to stay for free....
there are meny more just cant think of them right now...
Great idea for a thread! Certainly doesn't encourage me to concentrate on getting my work done though
Apollo Bay is beautiful and I also think Bargara Beach and 1770, not far from Bundaberg are fabulous for a cruisy holiday.
Don't mean to hijack this thread but just on the side if anyone has any suggestions for places to stay in Perth and Margaret River/Albany for fave spots I would LOVE to hear about them!!
Mine is for winter/spring-Daylesford for the pretty picturesque town,food and of course Hepburn Spa resort..mmm pamper,massages,mud baths etc
Other than that im a hot weather girl and enjoy Sunshine Coast(freebie place to stay with the relos)in qld,the Gold Coast but not over xmas and a little place i like is around Ettalong beach,Avoca on the Central Coast of N.S.W about an hour if that outta Sydney,have friends there and is nice and peaceful.OH and if i dont mention hubby's home town of Lakes Entrance where the in-laws are i be killed.gorgeous place in East Gippsland Victoria but do it in summer..Pretty and worth a visit
Bon xo
O my I forgot my BHL's home town he would be very up set ( he wants to move back ) and thats Avoca NSW ( thanks soniebon ) opps it is a very nice part in the country...
Ooh, I don't mind Ettalong. I know how to get to & from there, but I'd be stuffed if I had to go past Umina. I'm a country gal. That's as far as I've gone into the big city in my own car.
Went to Sydney once, but followed mum & dad.
Gosford ain't exactly the big city for most, but for me it's huge!
Dubbo's too big for me to live in. Coffs I could handle, coz it's on the beach. Maybe. Only coz I know my way around those two. Anywhere else & I'm lost!
