Susan's cottage was absolutely lovely and the kids and I had a delightful time using it as our base for our first few days in Perth. As a Perth person I already knew the beauty of Cottesloe and it was so great to rediscover the suburb from such a convenient base. We grabbed a train into Freo - how convenient! And took daily walks down to the beach and through Cott's beautiful tree-lined streets. The cottage itself worked really well for the three of us (1 adult, 2 kids) despite being configured for 2 adults and 1 child, in large part to Susan's flexibility. We moved furniture to provide space for 3 beds and all slept really well. We felt very much as if we were staying at a friend's rather than at a rental. Susan was warm and accommodating. The cottage was beautifully decked out and generously stocked with things we might need should the cooking bug bite. (It didn't. I was on holidays!) a great host and a lovely spot to base yourself.
