Close to many beautiful beaches and ocean rock pools such as Stanwell Park, Coalcliff, Wombarra, and Austinmer.

Otford is the gateway to the Royal National Park, where you can walk to the Figure 8 Pools or drive along the Grand Pacific Walk. Drive over the Sea Cliff Bridge and stop at one of the many oceanfront hotels or restaurants from Clifton to Thirroul.

Symbio Wildlife Park is also a short drive away.

Local shopping is just a few minutes' drive away, with Coles at Helensburgh, a local butcher, bakery, and bottle shop, as well as a service station. Wollongong is a 20-minute drive via the M1.

There are excellent restaurants and cafes in Helensburgh and Stanwell Park for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with more details available in our welcome book at the cottage.

The bungalow features an ensuite, linen, ducted air conditioning, a 55” Smart TV with Netflix and Apple TV, a beautiful reclining leather lounge, a fully stocked kitchen, and filtered water.

Guest soap, shampoo, etc., can be found in the bathroom. Bed and bath linen are provided, along with wireless internet, games, and books.

We follow strict noise regulations and ask you to be respectful and considerate at all times. We want you to have the best time at the bungalow while respecting our lovely neighbors who generally prefer an early night and peace during the day.

Privacy is assured, however, if you need assistance, we are here to help.

About the host

Hosted by Jackie Boyce

Host profile image
Together with my husband Chris, we welcome you to our B&B situated in Otford NSW.

We have been living in this magical neck of the woods for over 30 years, and we have made this place our home.

Chris recently retired from a successful career as the Director of an adventure sport company. I operate a small home based candle business.

Chris enjoys hang gliding and has many contacts should you wish to participate in a tandem flight. Now that we are both semi-retired, we decided to share our guest residence and whilst this is new to us, we have been hosts too many a friend, and believe we know how to make you feel welcome.

Chris & I enjoy bush walking, swimming at the local sea pools, riding our bikes, gardening and photography.

We look forward to meeting you, and are certain you will find the Bungalow very comfortable, with everything you need and maybe just that little more, you might have to keep coming back to share our beautiful home in Otford.

Hope to see you very soon!

Why they chose this property

We have been living in Otford for 32 years, we found the area most peaceful especially from the hustle and bustle of the city. Chris recently retired from a very successful Hang Gliding business which he started early 1980’s, in that business Chris took 1000’s of people and showed them the amazing coastline of the Northern Illawarra. A view that we never tire of.

The tranquility of the area, is something we love to share with our guests.

What makes this property unique

The Bungalow was purpose-built with lots of love and attention to detail for my mother, whom I cared for during the last few years of her life.

Most of the furnishings, tastefully acquired by her, have remained in the bungalow. We receive many wonderful comments about the setup, noting that this is not just a small house but a real home that is warm, inviting, and comfortable.

Additionally, my mother was a keen gardener, and together we created a beautiful garden. You can sit on the verandah and enjoy total privacy while watching the beautiful birds that come to visit.
