Stanwell Park is completely surrounded by bushland and the ocean. The area is famous for its Hang Gliding and Para Gliding from Bald Hill which overlooks the coastline from Stanwell Park to Wollongong.
Symbio Wildlife Park is close by.
Other activities include bushwalking, horse riding, golf, tennis and just relaxing on the beach.
The village of Stanwell Park has a bottle shop and some necessities can be found in some of the several excellent cafes. There is also an Art Gallery and Gift shops. The beach kiosk also serves wholesome eat-in or takeaway meals.
How to get there.
From the North: Drive south on the Princes Highway through Sutherland and Waterfall. After Waterfall stay on the M1 towards Wollongong. Take the Helensburgh exit and follow the signs to Stanwell Park. As you come to the bottom of the escarpment take the second turning to the left which passes the shops. After you pass the Stanny Temptations store, take the next street on your left, Stanwell Ave. At the end of a median strip planted with palms make a U turn into a service road and you have arrived.
From the South: Follow the Princes Highway to Bulli. After Bulli turn right into Lawrence Hargrave Drive and follow the coast to Stanwell Park. Shortly after Murrawal Rd (which is the first street on your right), veer right at the Articles Art Gallery building. Immediately after the gallery there are two streets to the right from almost the same point. Stanwell Ave is the second and higher street.
Train: Travelling by rail from both Sydney and Wollongong is a very picturesque journey with a 10 minute walk downhill from the station.

Summary: Great accomodation surroundings make you feel like ypur in Bali. Lovely local beach superb lifegaurds. Great walks. Bit of a struggle to find anywhere close by foe evening meal otherwise great.

Summary: Fernleigh Cottage is exactly as advertised...plus, plus, plus! Neat, clean and beautiful, including the very best orange juice ever! Our family consisting of four adults found great pleasure in the diverse amenities provided for guests. Freshly baked healthy bread was a tasty delight! Thank you, Gail, for everything. Great location, walking distance to the beach, with an even shorter walk via a short cut through the bushes. The beach and lagoon offered enjoyment for all, complemented by breathtaking views of hang gliders in the sky. Having qualified lifeguards overseeing and guiding swimmers added to our safety and enjoyment. We appreciated the convenience of local eateries and takeaways, albeit a few, as well as the dining options at the nearby Bowling Club overlooking the ocean. Our family is strongly considering a follow-up visit of the beach - while staying at Fernleigh Cottage, the gem of Stanwell Park.

Summary: We booked for an overnight stay following a wedding at the Imperial, Clifton. The accomodation more than met our expectations. Everything you needed is provided, very comfy bed, beautiful quiet and peaceful location, Gail the host is so lovely and inviting and the freshly baked bread of a morning is such a wonderful treat. The pool, spa and surrounds is like staying in a tropical oasis. We were greeted by a beautiful King parrot who was treated to a grape from our guest plate. We would highly recommend this Bed and Breakfast. Thank you.

Summary: Unfamiliar with the area, Fernleigh Cottage turned out to be the perfect base for our family of four to stay for a fabulous weekend of wedding celebrations at Tumbling Waters. Hostess Gail made us feel very welcome, the accommodation was clean and well maintained, her freshly baked bread delicious. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend!

Summary: We absolutely loved our stay here! The street has the most beautiful holiday feel to it, with lovely mountain views and an abundance of greenery. Gail was such an excellent host, so many thoughtful and generous details such as fresh organge juice, grapes on arrival, and an outside spa ready when we arrived. Gail also set up the outside fire pit for us which was wonderful. The space itself is beautifully decorated with high quality sheets, towels, and blankets. A very well stocked kitchen. Thank you Gail.
