Kate's place was spotless and perfect for our family to stay in while in Sydney. The pool was fantastic for our kids, who were in and out despite being on the chilly side of Spring. The location was really great, with buses right out the front and large motorways nearby to lead you into the city and out to the mountains etc. Manly was just down the road and plenty of shops and amenities nearby too.
Kate was very accommodating and helpful and couldn't do enough to make our stay enjoyable, from a jar of honey to spare board games for our kids.
We'd highly recommend a stay at Kate's place.
