It’s a super clean and spacious 3 bedroom place with just the small patio as an extended outdoor area. No air con after all, just fans which are fine as the brick house is naturally quite cool, but if the temps go beyond 30 as they do in Sydney, some people will definitely want the air con advertised. The beautiful garden in the photo is available apparently, but it is very removed from access from this stay place ie, it is attached to the hosts’ joined house at the back of the house. This would not be of concern to most but if you are staying there because you have a dog it means, effectively, yr dog may be limited to the inside of the place and the small front veranda because there is a main-ish road right out front, with no secure fencing for small kids or dogs. (Again, this point will be irrelevant unless you have a dog or little kids.). I know that we were kindly told we had access to their backyard for our dog but there was no way we would feel comfortable going all the way down and around to get there - behind the hosts private residence - to roam around on their very private yard!
Backyard aside, we had a lovely stay and
Jenny and John were really responsive and very kind hosts.
Lots of nearby shops and restaurants and a 25 minute bus to the city almost out front. Great walking areas especially down Western Crescent to the sub-tropical Glades Bay waterfront walkway.
All in all, a really lovely place, thanks Jenny and John!
