We had a lovely time at Bev and James' place. The area has so much to offer and it's wonderful and kid-friendly, families are sure to have a blast. It's also super convenient for groceries as well as eating out. We loved the sushi train nearby and we had a great meal at the Parkview Hotel. There were so many places I would have loved to have tried! The cottage itself is nicely decorated and very comfortable for a family of 4. We loved how comfy the beds were and there was plenty of space for us all. The kitchen was well-equipped and the air conditioning did a great job of warming the place up in the coolish weather. Having a washing machine and dryer was also really handy. We had no trouble at all finding free street parking just nearby, even though Bev and James had kindly left us 2 passes to use. Communication before and during our stay was great and check in and check out was all very easy. We definitely recommend Bev and James' place as well as this area as a great base to explore all Sydney has to offer.
