About this property

A Stone's Throw From Town (Main House)

Our place has been decorated with some funky vibes and is set with a large open living space complete with fully functional kitchen & newly renovated tile bathroom.

Either bedroom can be set up with either a Super King bed, or 2x King Singles, with an additional single bed in one bedroom and a fold out couch in the lounge.

Complete with off street parking, all within a stone's throw from town!

We aim to give our guests privacy and space and our co-host Simon is available to assist in a timely manner if needed.

We are within walking distance (10 minutes, down a hill) of the historic Warehouse Precinct, and the many great cafe's and eateries nearby. Journey only slightly further (15 minutes from the apartment) and you will find yourself in the Octagon, the main hub of the City Centre.

This house is split into two very separate and distinct spaces. The other half is occupied, however the spaces are entirely separated, each with their own private entrance.

A regular bus service runs to and from town from High Street, a 1 minute walk from the House.
Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a kitchen, a washing machine, and a sofa bed.

Very convenient to the whole city

Great location and very cosy. An older house that is well maintained and the hosts have put a lot of thought to what a family needs with a short term stay. Our family of four fit very well and were very comfortable!
