Jills place was definitely above and beyond our expectations. After traveling in Australia for 3 weeks it felt like a treatment to arrive at and stay in this beautiful decorated home which contained everything and more we could wish for. We had a warm welcome despite our midnight arrival. Attached to Jills and Pats house, the place offers acces to facilities as laundry, off street parking and swimming pool. With a spacious bedroom, living room including kitchenette and a very comfortable couch, bathroom & delicious shower and private garden (including BBQ and garden furniture) the home offers all the comfort, privacy and luxery you could wish for on a holiday. The place is recently decorated and everything is though over. The rooms contain everything you may possibly need and more. Jill and her husband Pat are wonderful hosts, doing everything to make you feel at home. This made us feel home far away from home. Jill loves to advice you on places to go and how to get around. Both Pat and Jill were really thoughtful and attentive to make our stay as pleasant as possible. The whole family is very sociable including their dog Jerry. They are indeed "friendly and fun" and "love to share they beautiful home with others". It was very nice talking to all of them and get to know them. We stayed for a week but could easily have stayed for another one!
The neigborhood is very neat in a more quiet area of the city. Very close to Manly (and the ferry to the city)-5 minutes by bus and 20 minutes walk- makes it a perfect hideway to relax after a day in the city or at the beach. Shops, coffee bars, restaurants are all in a 5 minute distance walk.
We are very glad we booked Jills place to spend the last week of our wonderful trip in Australia. It made our holiday complete!
