The ABC report is based on one example, a young professional couple currently living in a one bedroom granny flat. For the holidays they're going camping but bookings are at a premium, normal for Xmas holidays.
The story seems to indicate they are located in the Bega Valley. It would be reasonable to assume as young professionals they earn a combine income approaching $150k pa or some $3,000 pw.
According to Domain there are currently around 10 rentals available in Bega, well within their affordability. Sounds like there are other factors at play here not mentioned in the story.
