If you need regular low temps then go for the southern highlands or Tasmania.

Also in areas such as the Southern Tablelands (Goulburn through to Jindabyne), the Southern Highlands (Mittagong to Goulburn) lots of inland areas of Victoria, the hills outside Adelaide and probably all of Tasmania except for the beach areas.
