  Comments: We were on a cycling trip around Kuran-Gai National Park and decided to stay around Newport for the night. Tessa And Rod’s place seemed like the perfect fit and it sure was. Communication: Very easy to organize everything. It only took a few moments to organize our arrival and they were both there (and Charlie the dog :) to greet us when we arrived. The place: It is a very cozy unit below their house. It was very peaceful and quiet. TV had Foxtel and it was nice to just chill and watch the news. Heaters were provided and very welcome as the weather git a but chilly. Breakfast: Muesli, milk, tea, fruit, and homemade marmalade and toast - what else can you ask for! It was very nice to have access to these things. Cleanliness: Very clean and very well kept! We cannot recommend this place enough, and if we ever decide to have another cycling trip close to the Northern beaches, we'll definitely stay here again. Thanks for everything!

  Comments: Tessa and Rod are both so very friendly and accommodating, and they have a wealth of local knowledge. Tea, coffee and breakfast provided, clean and tidy space, sanctuary-like yard and the most beautiful and calm (outdoor) dog. Can't fault the place or the hosts. Oh and of course, delicious home made berry and muesli muffins :)

• Reviewer: Geraldine

  Comments: Felt like a home away from home. The thoughtful touches throughout, from the homemade muffins and jam to the bathroom amenities made us feel very welcome. Tessa and Rod are brilliant hosts, ready to provide any assistance needed.

• Reviewer: Deen

  Comments: Very nice and kind people

• Reviewer: Stephen

  Comments: A lovely big apartment, in a great location at a great price. Apartment was very clean, easy to get to and had heaps of room - separate bedroom and living area. In an area with terrible parking it was great to have off-street parking. A small walk down the hill takes you to Justin Hemmes' fabulous Newport hotel - a sensational place for lunch or a drink. A short drive or 15 minute walk down a slight slope will get you to the beach or shops and Newport's wonderful cafes and restaurants. Communications were great, lovely hosts, and for this area, a real bargain price.

• Reviewer: Dennis

• Reviewer: Sarah

• Reviewer: Suhela

  Comments: Amazing location, just up the road from the Newport Hotel, but also walking distance into town if you're headed that way. Very much enjoyed our stay at Tess and Rod's.

• Reviewer: Claire

  Comments: In terms of the location it was perfect where we needed to be. The Newport pub was superb and only a couple minutes walk down the road. The homemade marmalade and muffins were delicious and a truly delicious idea. Tessa and Rod went out of their way to assist us and make us feel at home. The place also has some privacy which is great. We will definitely visit again!!

  Comments: Tessa and Rob were amazingly hospitable and went out of their way to ensure our stay was a great experience. I can't wait to stay with them again in the future. If I could give 6 stars I would! Highly recommended.

• Reviewer: Juergen

  Comments: This is a little gem at the Northern Beaches. Tess and Rod were the most welcoming hosts and the little studio exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived until we departed we felt at home (and) away from home. (pardon the punt). Loved following the suggestions of the local pub and restaurants. Tess' decoration with personal touches and home made little gestures were really appreciated. Great private outdoor area amongst lush gardens to soak in the afternoon sun. We couldn't have asked for more. Highly recommended.

  Comments: Very homely with total privacy located underneath hosts house. It's a fabulous location for any event being attended at the Newport Mirage as its only a 5 minute walk away. Having an iron, walk in robe and full length mirror was very convenient. Loved the courtyard with pond and homemade jams and cake on arrival with a great selection of teas, hot/cold drinks and fresh fruit available. Environment was very peaceful listening to birds and frogs with a pretty scented garden along the entrance pathway. Thank you to the hosts Tess and Rod. x

• Reviewer: Justin

  Comments: This place is awesome!!! It has everything you are looking for. Tessa and Rob are extremely nice and will help with anything. They gave us many suggestions for places to eat or to explore. They made sure we had everything we needed and everything laid out for us. They greeted us right when we got there and showed us around. They have baked goods for when you enter your place. The area is really spacious and easy to maneuver. They have a dog Charlie who is really nice. There aren't enough words that do this place justice. This place is one of the best airbnb's I have ever stayed at and would recommend it to anyone who is staying in the area of Newport or just in Sydney in general.
