Sue and Stephen were such generous hosts. We made a booking last minute for a long stay and allowed us to stay at their Newstead home. Sue came over immediately to welcome us. They are a well traveled couple and were very friendly. She came to give us fresh towels every 3 days and came to refresh linens and tidy up the room every week. They were generous enough to have supplied the room with basic fixings for a home cooked meal so we did not have to go out to buy it. We appreciate how much time and effort they had put into this location to make it seem homey for tenants who stay at their properties.
We had a very private studio, which is attached to their garage. Easy to get to place with a sign out front. They gave us our space and privacy. The studio opened up to a huge yard with lots of outdoor seating and a BBQ. There was electric blankets and a heater. Bathroom was supplied with soap, shampoo, and conditioner. The kitchen had a little fridge and a mini oven with a stove top at the top. They had all the kitchen appliances, dishes, and cutlery that was needed for a stay at Newstead. There was Wifi, but with the rain and wind, connection was tough. (Best connection spots are under microwave, on dresser and outside on the green picnic table)
As being well traveled, they know what makes a stay away from home great.
