Hi,
We live in Charlestown, just 10 mins from Newcastle. Good public travel, good schools, near shops, beach, reserve and Lake Macquarie. Ideal spot for us (oldies) and families alike. Our son and his family live within 15 minutes walk of us. The Lake is a lovely area to live and Warners Bay is one of our favourite spots. Walks, childen's play areas, boating, good road and bus links and only 15 mins or so from Newcastle itself. Take a look at the Lake Macquarie website for a taster! We feel that Charlestown is great for families and it is a growing area all within only a short drive to some lovely beaches. Good Luck!
Linda
