I will be going out to oz on my own for 3 weeks in april on a reky to check the place out before i steam into the application, the trouble is, i've never been before and am stuck as to places to look at over there. i will be visiting adelaide, sydney and brisbane and looking for some nice family friendly community based areas.......can anyone make any suggestions??
My brother origionally settled in Brighton/Sandgate are of Brissy and then moved to Redcliffe - they looked nice areas when we visited and I know he's been happy in both places. They have a young family. When we visited it was about an hour on the train into the city which was reasonably priced and also included using the river cat in the city. It was handy for the gold & sunshine coasts too. I think Brighton is classed as Moreton Bay area (but I'm not sure on this).
Stick to the city centres (base - your from London be used to traffic and transport) with a Mecure / Accor brand hotel (med range and reasonable, transport is good and hiring a car easy from the airports or city office locations.
Hi there
