Thanks for the feedback. As space is limited in the room we now have a comfortable, padded moon chair in the wardrobe which can be used. It's folding so it can be be put away so you're not tripping over it when not in use. Glad you enjoyed your stay. B

Perfect room for two

Perfect place for one or a couple. Just one office chair, which my husband sat on to watch TV, while I watched, sitting in bed. Toaster, electric frying pan, microwave, kettle and bar fridge…great for simple meals. A small table and 2 stools were a tight fit but worked fine.Great eat in or takeaway food options in Wangi just 5 minutes drive away. Beautifully presented. Happily recommend.

Our room was as nice as it looked in the photos and very comfortable and clean. The little kitchen area had everything we needed and had a few welcoming extras other than the usual tea, coffee, milk etc. My husband unexpectedly was admitted to hospital and I felt safe and comfortable staying there by myself. I definitely would stay here again. Our stay was 4 nights.

About the host

Hosted by Michelle and James

Host profile image

Michelle and James have retired in the Wangi area with magnificent views over Lake Macquarie. Michelle worked as a librarian and James worked as a nurse/paramedic/drug and alcohol counsellor before retirement. James loves working in the garden and Michelle loves playing Scrabble. Both are active in the community.

Why they chose this property

We love Wangi and the peace and tranquility of the area. Dobell Drive is not a through road so we get very little traffic and the bird songs are great. Wangi Bay is often filled with yachts, jet skis, kayaks etc and there is a shelf of rock down the bank opposite our place with steps leading down to it, that is a popular fishing spot.

What makes this property unique

The sunsets are spectacular. You don't have lake views from your room unfortunately but the lake is just across the road. There are bush walks at the end of Dobell Dr, within walking distance, or view the World War II bunkers up on the ridge overlooking the lake, again within walking distance of our house. We enjoy sharing our house although you have complete privacy with your own entrance to the room, ensuite and kitchenette.
