Thirroul - Beach Front Holiday Properties, Holidays and Lifestyles

Listed Below are the best Thirroul - Beach Front Holidays, Holiday Accommodation and Beachfront Properties for Sale, Rent or Lease, that are on the beachfront, waterfront or close to the beach. Thirroul has long been a beach resort - it became a popular holiday destination after the railway came through in the early 1880s. Thirroul is situated on the Illawarra South Coast between Austinmer and Bulli approximately 13 m north of Wollongong. To the east is the Pacific Ocean and to the west, the Illawarra escarpment. It is a popular suburb being so close to beaches and only a one hour and twenty minute trip to Sydney by electric train, and even less by road. The wonderful beach is a great reason to visit Thirroul, a sweep of golden sand backed by a large grassy park with a children's play area, close to shops and cafes. The town also has a lively arts community. The English writer DH Lawrence lived in Thirroul in 1922 and wrote much of his Australian novel "Kangaroo" here. Wyewurk, the home he lived in, is now privately owned, however a park at the end of Craig Street offers a glimpse of the views Lawrence enjoyed. There is a wide range of beachfront accommodation to choose from.
