Yvette was a terrific host and her house is very special. We felt privileged to be staying in such a beautiful heritage home. The bed was very comfortable and the room had everything you need - ours was the upstairs queen room with a restful attic feel. The downstairs private bathroom was perfect - big shower with all kinds of nice toiletries to choose from. Breakfast was a included and was delicious - all the cereals including good quality muesli, sourdough toast, whole grain and banana bread and a delicious home made fruit compote. I can't stress enough how special this restored 'art nouveau' era home is - lots of interesting architectural elements and decorated with such style. All mod cons where you need them too - including air-conditioning in the bedroom and a great coffee/ tea fridge corner. Excellent location is central for a stop over on journeys heading north and south from Sydney, and an easy walk to the shops in Hornsby. Thanks, Yvette we will be back. Kate and Steve
