A friendly welcome then given full privacy. Beautiful home with everything (and more) for us to enjoy a lovely stay in a quiet area near walks and bike trails.
This cottage is located in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood, and the accommodations were clean and comfortable. I loved that we were a short walk to a mall where we could shop and dine. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again if I travel to Australia in the future.
We loved everything!! Everything was spotlessly clean. Comfortable bed. The area and lovely and peaceful. We were very impressed and will definitely be back. There were even some little treats to munch on and milk in the fridge. Overall, I'd give a rating of 11/10
On first impressions, the property was lovely with a homey decor. Unfortunately on our 2nd night when we were out at a wedding, we received a text from the hosts advising that builders were coming at 8am to work on the cottage roof which was very odd given we had booked months ago. When they arrived they were very loud so we left for breakfast. It was lucky we werenât the type to sleep in. That same day we came home in the afternoon to the hosts and their friends having a drink on the little verandah right outside the cottage which we were under the impression was part of the area we paid for, which was a bit awkward, however they did move once we went into the cottage. In general the accomodation and hosts are lovely, but it isnât a very private spot with all noises from the house heard very clearly from the cottage as it is only a couple metres from the main dwelling. If you have no issue with not having privacy, then this is a nice place to stay.
If you want to stay outside the city this is a great place to make home base. It is about 35 min from CBD. Quite , peaceful, comfortable, well maintained, well appointed, and the best of host. What more can you want?
Perfect in all aspects for a weekâs stay for a couple in a quiet residential area, walking distance to supermarkets. Everything you need to cook your own meals is there and the little extras supplied by the host were welcomed.
Cheryl & Ray could not have been better hosts, before we arrived they gave us suggestions on what to see; and they were perfect.
The cottage was as listed, very comfortable and roomy; the washer and dryer was much appreciated!
Thank you for being a part of our memorable visit to your great country!
Hosts are friendly and gracious. Really cared that we had all that we needed. Bus to city 40 min. Groceries walking distance. Every thing we needed in the kitchen was there. Pots and pan new. Layout was was nice. Private spaces nice. Just great.
Thank you Cheryl and Ray for having us to stay in the cottage. It was quiet, very peaceful and a warm cosy haven which we so enjoyed. We felt very welcome.
See you again. Kathie
This cozy, North Shore, cottage felt like home as I stepped through the door. It was exceptionally clean and tastfully furnished. The hosts are friendly, knowledgeable regarding the local areas, and very approachable. I highly recommend Camellia Cottage for your Sydney North Shore stay.
So comfortable like a home away from home, everything provided. Cheryl greeted us on arrival and went through a few essentials with us, tv controls etc. then didn't see them till we left. Had a great chat after meeting hubby Ray when we checked out. A lovely couple, and so peaceful. We'll be back.
