Phil's house is a nice base for trips in the surrounding of Sai Kung. After a few days in Hong Kong city it is the perfect place for some quietness after the buzzling city life. The house is a bit outside of Sai Kung but can be reached by a 10-15 min walk through the forest. Sai Kung is a nice fishing village with boutiques, shops and restaurants. The famous Mc Lehose trail is nearby and we also went to Sha Tin to see the 10.000 Buddhas temple (30 min by bus).
Marjorie the house maid is very friendly, obliging and communicative. She gave us a heartly welcome and even cooked breakfast for us the first day. Would recommend staying here!
