Being mid winter we thought at first, perhaps it's not the ideal time to stay beachside. We were absolutely wrong as the accommodation, decorated in a bright beach house style, warm and cosy on the inside, set the perfect holiday atmosphere. Rugged up, it was a joy walking along the beach and into the National Park just on dusk. Factor in the friendly village atmosphere of Kurnell and you have a recipe for the perfect getaway within easy driving distance from anywhere in the Sydney Metropolitan area. We enthusiastically recommend Leon's Beach Retreat to any person considering "getting away from it all".
