A Cosy Garden Room with a forest view on a creek and birdsongs from sunrise to sunset. Guest shares the kitchen in the house. There is a small fridge, toaster and kettle in the room.
We are a semi retired couple who are well travelled, loves life, our fellowmen and the outdoors. We live in a quiet winding leafy street with great neighbours.
The garden room is nestled in the bush with no ensuite bathroom, only an outside shower-toilet-combo overlooking the private bush but the guest is welcome to use the bathroom inside the house.
This share-bathroom is adjacent to a guest room and conveniently close to the kitchen and laundry.
The best spot in the house is the large balcony that overlooks the creek as well as an al fresco area in the bush. Add to that a unique "little outhouse".
The sought after location offers:
A 5 minute walk from public transport
A 10 minute walk from a popular shopping mall with cinemas
A 10 minute drive to Manly Beach

    It was a memorable 1 week there. As their house is located in small forest, you may see a lot of birds more than you can imagine.
    Needless to say, it is in very quite area. And you may hear another language at home.
    The bus stop to get to city is within 5 minutes walking distance and it takes 35 minutes to city.

How do I book?

Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.

When do I pay?

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.

When can I share my contact details?

Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
