About the host
Hosted by Lakeshores Holiday & Short Stay Accommodation
Lakeshores Accommodation is a family owned, locally based holiday rental company that has been looking after guests and holiday homes around Lake Macquarie since 1996. What started with just a couple of family properties has grown into a small, hands on team that lives, works, and plays in the same streets and beaches our guests come to enjoy.
We are not a big corporate agency, we are local people who know the area and the homes we manage. You will often find us checking properties ourselves, meeting trades on site, and making sure each home is guest ready, rather than relying on cleaners alone to do the property management work.
We love welcoming couples, families, and workers. Our focus is on honest communication, clean and comfortable stays, and sharing local tips so you can make the most of your time in Newcastle.
When you book with Lakeshores, you are supporting a local family business that genuinely cares about your stay and about the owners who trust us with their homes.

Why they chose this property
Newcastle is a vibrant coastal city where working harbour, surf beaches and café culture all sit side by side. Just over 30 minutes from Lake Macquarie and about two hours from Sydney, it’s an easy add-on to a lakeside or beach stay, or a great day trip during longer holidays.
✦ Beautiful beaches and iconic ocean baths - Newcastle is lined with sandy beaches like Nobbys, Newcastle Beach, Bar Beach and Merewether, all popular for swimming and surfing. The city is also famous for its heritage ocean baths, giving guests a unique place to swim with ocean views but in sheltered seawater pools.
✦ Walkable coastal city - Guests can follow the coastal walkway and Anzac Memorial Walk along the clifftops, wander the harbour foreshore, and explore cool laneways and street art – most of it easily done on foot from the CBD and beaches.
✦ Food, bars and coffee with a local feel - Newcastle has a growing food and bar scene, with small cafés, wine bars and restaurants clustered around the harbour, Honeysuckle precinct and inner-city suburbs like Cooks Hill and Darby Street, known locally as “eat street”.
✦ Arts, culture and history - From the Newcastle Museum and regional art gallery to heritage buildings around the harbour, there’s plenty for guests who like a bit of history and culture between beach visits.
✦ Gateway to the Hunter and Lake Macquarie - Newcastle makes a great base for day trips – north to Port Stephens and its sand dunes, west to the Hunter Valley wineries, or south to the lake, beaches and bushwalks of Lake Macquarie.
✦ Laid-back - Many visitors love that Newcastle has ocean views, a harbour, beaches, coastal walks and good public transport like a mini-Sydney – but with fewer crowds and a much more relaxed pace
