The New South Wales region

This is an opportunity to experience the real Sydney lifestyle, a real haven away from the city noise,traffic and stress. Although if you require the night clubs and party atmosphere of a large city - this apartment would not be suitable. If you wish you can Experience Sydney with a local, understand its culture, explore its hidden locations unknown to most tourists and be part of the Aussie way of life. This type of vacation package is not available with hotels and most accommodation packages. The apartment has a full gourmet kitchen with the latest appliances and highest quality furniture. Set amongst the tree tops it affords seclusion, privacy and bushland views. There are bushwalks from your front door and the opportunity if you wish to share breakfast on the outside deck with an array of native parrots that visit each morning.

The Sydney area

Just 12 miles from the city in a quiet bushland upmarket neighborhood. There are various ways to travel to the city, by car 30/35 min. A relaxing scenic journey by train and ferry if you are not in a hurry or by train alone. There is a rail station with a direct service to the city within a 5 min walk of the apartment. It is safe, frequent and very reliable. Also within minutes is a large shopping mall, a wildlife sanctuary where you can see and touch Koalas and Kangaroos and access to the KuringGai Chase National Park which is Sydney's premier park. With natural bushwalks, hidden waterways, aboriginal rock carvings and a cultural centre, its an ideal opportunity to view Sydney in a manner that has changed little in the past 200 years.

Personal Tours: An added advantage of staying at our Sydney Holiday Apartment is the availability of personal tours. Your hosts have a SUV (4WD) and Boat and if required tours are available on a daily basis to Sydney's premier locations and to other locations that are unknown and rarely visited even by Sydney residents. Sydney has 100s of miles of waterways many of which are totally inaccessible without the use of a boat. One of which is the Hawkesbury River almost 100 miles of waterway that almost circles Sydney. Here you can explore hidden secluded beaches, bays and inlets at the mouth of this river together with its great bird and wildlife and the rugged unchanged landscape which forms part of the National Park. *** Recently 2 guests Donna and Mike from Bend Oregon, USA undertook the abovementioned boat tour and we have included a few pictures that they took on that day. A full compilation of their day can be found on our 'Sydney Holiday Tours' web site.

Other Activities: Health/Beauty Spa, Miniature Golf, Shopping, Basketball Court, Boating, Wildlife Viewing

“Fantastic place to stay with owners that make you feel really welcome.” We stayed at this apartment as we wanted an alternative to our usual Sydney hotels or apart hotels and were not dissapointed. Ron & Jan couldn't have done more to make us feel welcome. Ron... more Response: Thank you and we are delighted that you enjoyed your time with us. \

“An Overdue Review” A late review but a place and folks we would never forget. Heading for Sydney last March we found Ron & Jan's lovely place on VRBO and took a chance. The rate did exceed our budget but were... more Response: Thank you both. It really is important for us to assist and enable our guests to enjoy their stay and to experience the real Sydney

“Best Place ever!” This is a first rate apt. It is totally as described in their ad, if not better. However, if you want late night partying and street life, it would not be appropriate. It has the huge advantage of all a large cosmopolitan city has to offer plus a wonderful place to relax when you need a break plus access to all the sights greater Sydney has to offer such a a boat cruise on the Hawkesbury River,visits to small fishing villages, endless beautiful beaches and a visit to the city of Newcastle with its' harbour and headlands. Response: Thank you Linda & Roy. I still recall your comments "that we stayed 6 weeks and only visited the one location twice" Sydney is truly a wonderful location to explore

“Our Best Housing Experience in Australia” The property was as described but you don't comprehend how nice the total environment is until your experience it. The house was very clean and everything was in working order. The owners were the best. They became friends and we spent a good bit of time together. They added an intangible value to the experience that cannot be quantified in money. We have met fine hosts in the past, but Ron and Jan win the prize as the best. We used the outdoor cooking facilities to host a group of our Australian Rotarian friends. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed eating by the pool in the lush foliage around the house. Ron and Jan pitched in and helped us prepare, serve, entertain, and clean up. We enjoyed our walkabout in the nature reserve area behind the house. This is a dream location for living in a city suburb. It is quiet, clean, the air smells fresh, and the grounds are beautiful. We were visited by the Lorikeets every morning and other birds throughout the day. Even turkeys visited us. It is only a 10 minute walk to the train. With the train, our activity choices were unlimited. We went shopping in Hornsby and to the Sydney CBD many times. The train is the way to travel. The neighborhood is quiet so expect nothing more than peace and quiet. It is safe and we could leave home and not worry if we forgot to lock the doors. In the evenings, we sat on the porch, with a glass of wine and enjoyed the sun setting to the music of the dusk as provided by birds, insects and animals. We spent 3 months on this vacation to Australia. This was the best place we stayed and the best value for our money. We enjoyed the house, Ron & Jan, and the surroundings so much that we even stayed home three days rather than go somewhere. Living here is more than just a place to spend the night. We highly recommend this experience to our friends and family. Response: Thank you George. We also enjoyed your company.

“Paradise” A truly lovely oasis, you could not find more beautiful surroundings for a peaceful break. The apartment has everything you could possibly need, attention to detail is stunning. Everything is... more Response: Thank you for your comments. We do try to provide our guests with an opportunity to experience a little of the real Sydney lifestyle.
