We stayed at the Balmain Village Garden House in July, 2016. Jennifer met us on our arrival and made us feel very welcome including a bottle of wine and some chocolates. The house is lovely, full of character and in a perfect location about 15 minutes walk from the ferry and 5 minutes from the buses. Balmain is a bustling place, with a multitude of cafes, bars and restuarents.

The beds were comfortable, and even though it was the middle of winter we were never cold, in fact when we had the gas fire on it was very cosy indeed. The kitchen is well stocked and a supermarket is less than 5 minutes away. I don't think I could find a fault at all; everything was as described.

The only concern would be the steepness of the stairs, common in house like this I imagine, but for a person with mobility issues the upstairs bedrooms could be difficult. The master bedroom+en-suite and the family bathroom are downstairs however, so it might not be an issue at all.

Highly recommended indeed.
