What a gem!
My children aged 12 and 18, and myself, had a two night stay is this hidden gem, and we'll be back! We were met in person by host Sam and her doggy assistant Max. They were very welcoming and gave us some great local tips. The cottage is well positioned close to Barangaroo and Darling Harbour to one side, and an easy walk to The Rocks and Circular Quay on the other. We look forward to staying again soon.

Gorgeous property in excellent location
The photos do not do this property justice - this is a fabulous place and the location is excellent. Easy walking distance to Darling Harbour, Circular Quay, the bridge and the Opera House and of course you are already situated in The Rocks. It was clean and enough space for four adults. Only 2 minor downsides, the fridge is noisy - and no courtyard seating. So a quiet cuppa in the morning was not possible unless you went back to bed. Otherwise not an issue as we were out all day and evenings. Sam the host was great and held our luggage on arrival and departure to flt with our flight times. Would stay again and definitely recommend to friends and family.

Our 6 night stay was a real delight. A quick walk to all of the transport options at Circular Quay. After a busy day of sightseeing, you come home to a quiet sanctuary. Our host was very accommodating. I highly recommend it.

5 stars from us!
The property was in an excellent location - easy to get to and lots of places to eat and see within a short walk - easy access to the inner city too. Our host was so helpful and friendly - all in all a great place for four of us to rest our heads for the night. Would have liked to stay longer but we were on our way south.

Gorgeous funky accommodation in great location
Had a lovely 1 night stay here in November, wish it could've been longer, but was an en-route stop off. Was such a lovely place to stay, such bold and funky decor in the lounge and kitchen, exactly as the photos - loved it on first impressions. Lounge/dining area was a bit cosy for 5 (4 adults and one 15yr old) but was fine really. The main bedroom was roomy with it's own bathroom, and separate main bathrooom, the 2nd bedroom had the 2 beds, which was fine for a family for 1 night, but might be squishy if 3 people for more than 2-3 nights. Both bathrooms updated. Beds weren't the most comfortable compared to other accomm we've stayed at, but were fine for our 1 night. The courtyard looked gorgeous, but we arrived too late to enjoy it unfortunately, due to noise consideration for other cottages close-by. Lovely group of historical cottages in great location near the Lord Nelson Brewery hotel and short walk from the Rocks, and Barangaroo Reserve. Check in process initially sounded a little confusing, but instructions made sense when you got there, and were met by a lovely host. One plus is having keypad access to property, so if have a group don't need to worry about multiple keys etc. Would stay there again definitely, loved it.
