All the comforts of home: privacy, a separate entrance, secure, quiet, bush reserve at the back (birdsong in the morning was lovely), swimming pool, spacious, dedicated car park spot, comfortable, lovely extra touches e.g. laundry powder, decor. Although we didn't watch much telly - Foxtel was great. Close to Sydney but not too close. The pizza place in Lane Cove was awesome (Zapparellis). Pauline is lovely and very responsive.
