Helen was a truly genuine hospitable host; adaptable and empathic with a real understanding of knowing how to relate to all cultures and ages. Her cosmopolitian and passionate approach to life is inspirational. She makes you feel so welcome and part of her family. If you want a positive Australian accommodation experience then this is the place to stay. The home atmosphere is very clean, spacious, relaxing and calming, enjoyable and entertaining. What I loved is the fact you can decide whether you want to engage with Helen or whether you want to keep to yourself without pressure. I loved the company of her two small family dogs who were so friendly. And guess what, Helen makes complimentary fresh bread daily for your breakfast - now how good is that! This accommodation I would highly recommend and this was my first home stay experience which has meant the experience was even more meaningful. Thank you Helen and also Steph, Walter and Joyce who I also met there for being awesome kind people. A 10/5 star rating . I'm definitely going back and Helen is someone everyone needs to meet. Thank you.
