Eloise made us feel very welcome, took us to our room, made tea, and showed us around the shared areas of the house. She told us about the area that she lived in, a little about getting around Sydney and also took us to the supermarket.

Her house is beautiful, it reminded us of home and so we felt really relaxed being there. There was also another guest staying longer term, who was lovely too.

The room we shared wasn't the room advertised, but Eloise explained about opening up another room while her daughter was away for a few days. The other guest had the use of the bathroom down stairs and we had the use of a shared bathroom. When Paris did return, there was four of us sharing one bathroom which we made work.

Eloise took us out on bike rides, hired a car and took us out around the residential areas you wouldn't normally see, helped us arrange to send luggage back to the UK and introduced us to the best gelato i've ever tasted (we had way too many). She's a gem!

Eloise is a warm and caring host, we really enjoyed getting to know her, she has a beautiful home and an amazing cat called Roger. We didn't spend much time with her daughter Paris, sometimes we felt a bit in the way, but i'm sure thats because she returned back from her trip early not expecting other guests to still be there.

I would recommend Eloise to anyone and we would both return to stay with her again.
