The apartment was in a lovely location, with great water views and fabulous sunrises & sunsets. It had a fully equipped kitchen and the lounge room, bedrooms & bathroom were a great size. Best of all, the host (Steve) was most welcoming and made us feel very at home. We will definitely be back if we're ever in Newcastle again.
