We arrived on a damp cloudy day and had difficulty finding parking nearby which continued throughout our stay. The house felt a little dark as we walked in as it received very little sunlight through the windows and neither did the nice enclosed terrace area at the back at this time of year (October). This contained a table chairs a shed with bikes in and potted plants. We grew to appreciate the eclectic style and the obvious efforts that had been made to design the house and furniture in a vintage arty way where everything had obviously been well thought through. We were glad we had brought a hairdryer to use but it did not have a toaster, microwave, iron/ironing board or oven. The house was well equipped otherwise and comfortable but we found it strange that the area to the washing machine was initially locked which Carola opened for us to use. The reversible air con for heating was welcome as the evenings started to get colder. The small bedroom was at the front taken up by a large very comfortable bed but there was some noise from the street on occasions coming through the small shuttered window. The area is up and coming but a bit shabby in places. It is very handy for both the city and the northern beaches with good bus services. Most of the small restaurants only appeared to open at lunchtime when we were there or were closed as it was all saints weekend. There was a good large supermarket and several smaller ones. The first photo currently does not represent the road that the property is in but one that is nearby.
