Catherine's "little pocket of calm" was exactly that! I had a relaxing, cosy, rejuvenating getaway in this very clean, neat, compact home. It was decked out with all the essentials plus a few perks, and I felt like I was staying in a well-kept hotel room without having to walk past heaps of people in the lobby (you can basically step from the front door straight into your car! Or venture immediately out into fresh air and in 5-10 mins stumble upon the glittering Koombana Bay). Even though there was someone living in the back half of the house, and I could hear their TV from the bedroom, I never saw them and it felt quite safe and private. The wifi was great, and so was the lighting: curtains, lights and lamps pretty much enabled full darkness or full brightness, and everything in between. All in all, I enjoyed my stay and can highly recommend Catherine's little pocket of calm.
