My home consists of 3 bedrooms, family/kitchen, dining room and lounge. It is recently renovated, well maintained and clean. The sleeping arrangements consist of a queen size bed, a room with double bunks,and another single underneath and another bedroom with a double bed. The family room opens onto the alfresco area beside the swimming pool and there is a gas barbecue and table with 6 chairs. The tropical and native gardens surrounding the area are beautiful and peaceful and if you choose to go to the many beaches instead, that is only a half hour away by car. The Shoalhaven river and golf course is only 5 minutes away by car (10 mins on foot) and there are numerous bush walks beside the river and creek. Use of my car can be arranged.

The neighbourhood is pretty and quiet (cul de sac location) with walking tracks through the forest which lead down to the Shoalhaven river and Bomaderry creek areas and an abundance of bird life.
I am about half a km from the local shopping centre and 3 kms from Nowra town centre. The railway line to Sydney 160 kms (3 hours travel) is approximately 2 kms away from my home. There are many beaches to choose from with whale and dolphin watching cruises from Huskisson (small village) or you can go fishing in the river nearby (I have fishing equipment). Jervis Bay National Park is only a 1/2 hour away by car.

The golf course is a few minutes away by car. You can also go for a river cruise. The mountains are nearby and Kangaroo Valley (very pretty) is only 25 kms away.

My name is Ineke and welcome to my home. I was born in Amsterdam and still speak a little Dutch although it is very basic.

I am 64 years old and have 2 cats (friendly) which will remain here while I am away. I would appreciate it if you feed the cats and my neighbour can feed them if you go to Sydney (or elsewhere) for a few days.

My aim in going to the Netherlands is to meet relatives who I have not seen for many years and those who I have never met. My intention is to stay in Holland and surrounding areas for about 4 weeks although that is flexible.
