Fantastic place for a weekend away with the girls. 4 great bedrooms, 3 toilets and large living room and the kitchen was very well equipped with nice glasses and crockery and good sizes mugs. Location was great - close to Darby Street for shopping, cafes, bars, galleries, walk down to the water front in 15 mins. Easy checkin, and Jacqui, the host answered any queries very quickly and was super helpful with tips on where to go/what to do in Newcastle. Would highly recommend this place.

We had four generations of family from age 1 to 77. The home met all of our needs perfectly. There was plenty of seating in the living areas, there was a cot and high chair for the toddler. We cooked our family meals together and had a lovely weekend in the home.

We had a truly beautiful experience staying in this spacious and spotless home. The thoughtful attention to detail with quality games, books and toys, luxurious toiletries and bedding, supply of beautiful beach towels and the outdoor shower was greatly appreciated.We highly recommend this gorgeous character filled home. Jacqui was a delight to deal with and could not have been more helpful.
