The cottage in Lindfield could not be in a better location: very quiet, yet so close to things of importance: 5 minutes to Coles, even less to Harris Market and an IGA. Smaller stores, numerous coffee shops/restaurants and several banks are within about the same distance, and, best of all, also the railway station. In 2 months, typically we waited 0 to 5 minutes for trains in direction Sydney, occasionally 8 minutes. Trains are so frequent, we never even looked at a timetable/app to go to Sydney. We could not believe how well this works!
Especially noteworthy, given the summer season of our visit: a very efficient and quiet AC. WiFi worked equally well: fast, efficient and totally stable. The ability to use the laundry was very helpful as well.
Margaret and her husband are super friendly people, always willing to help but never intrusive. The response time to questions is so fast, it is a mystery how they do it. The weekly change of linen, towels and the vacuuming are wonderful. The cottage is in the middle of a wonderful garden, with lots of flowers, trees and birds. What a delight to wake up to the sound of birds.
The cottage's kitchen, while small in size, contains everything needed, even for a long stay like ours: coffee machine, microwave, toaster, hot water pot etc. Supplies like soap, shampoo, body lotion and essentials in the kitchen were fantastic. The fruit plate and other goodies on arrival day - the icing on the cake. Best Airbnb ever!
We know exactly where to go when returning to Sydney. A big thank you to Margaret and Martin for making our stay so pleasant!
