When we arrived at Cath's, we were greeted by a gorgeous host and an equally gorgeous garden that made its way to our private entrance. While we were unloading our luggage, Cath showed our 8-year-old all the books, toys, and board games in the house, which really delighted him. Cath was easy to communicate with and also a very understanding host - she allowed us a very late check out due to our 2am flight. We love how clean and bright the home was, lots of sunshine and very comfy beds. The table fans in the bedrooms were a thoughtful touch for the summer. Washer and dryer worked great and you get clean, dry laundry done in under 2 hours. Location was opposite a primary school but we barely heard the morning drop off. A 3-minute drive gets you to the beach and Coyle Park at one end and on the other end, 3 minutes away, there is a Countdown supermarket and many good restaurants. We loved Nomad for its pizzas and tiramisu. Getting to the Cbd by car was 15 minutes away - great location for us. Overall, we had a pleasant stay and will recommend and return.
