We have been named one of the 7 best 'Airbnb's in NSW with a pool' on "The Urban List" !

The review reads:
"If it's a sleek mansion vibe you're after, look no further. With a large heated pool, this cabana-style guest house is a luxe bush retreat, close to the famous Great North Walk, but with a long list of fancy amenities at your fingertips. We love the private patio, perfect for poolside dinners on balmy nights."

If you don't have a car, public transport is all around you - the Bus is just steps from the door, the train is an easy and flat 8 minutes walk. A few car hire companies will deliver a vehicle to the door and there is always Uber. If you are interested in getting out and about to do more than relaxing or bushwalking, a car is recommended.
