Sandys Place Is a Beautifully Styled Self-Contained Private Holiday Home

Ideal accommodation for Corporate and Blue Collar Workers' and Families

Sandy's Place is a lovely 2 bedroom with 3 beds, self-contained private holiday home with a fully equipped kitchen with many extras . It was thoughtfully and tastefully furnished to ensure a perfect stay.

Come and enjoy all that the Hawkesbury and the Blue Mountains has to offer

If you enjoy peace and quiet and the only sounds you hear in the morning are the birds then this is the place for you. Take an early morning stroll and don't forget to say g'day to other friendly people taking a walk - then head back home for a coffee, a very nice selection is provided. Also provided is a selection of teas. Or cook up a breakfast in your fully equipped kitchen or a short drive away are great cafes offering a variety of cuisines to indulge in a delicious breakfast or lunch.

Although shops,cafes, Polo, RAAF Base and Uni are very close by, the area and home feels peaceful and private and for peace of mind the only activity you are likely to see wandering around between dawn and dusk are the Roos

Sandy's Place is not a Resort or a Hotel and does not provide Facilities that you will get at those places. It Is a Beautifully Styled Private, self-contained Holiday Home.

The Master bedroom is stylish and comfortable. (see photos) It also has a television and an armchair to offer you, your own private space. With a ceiling fan for added comfort on those hot days. Dressing gowns are also provided.

The second bedroom is also one of my favourite rooms (see photos) it has been restyled to give a touch of luxury. It has 2 comfortable single beds. Ceiling fan, mirrored wardrobe and dressing gowns.

The lounge room has a television with Chromecast to enable you to login to your Netflix account and stream movies etc great entertainment to keep the children or adults amused. Own Modem with unlimited WIFI

Property quality plus unfortunately the owner was less than inviting and was rather discriminatory in relation to my adult son who is intellectually disabled.

Made us feel at home 🏡
Sandy’s place was a perfect place for us to stay locally while our house had renovations completed. The property is everything as described in the listing and more (including a beautiful entry path) but she also went above and beyond to make sure we had a comfortable homely stay and my kids were happy. Couldn’t thank her enough! Would recommend as a great place to stay if visiting the Hawkesbury!

A hidden jewel
Impeccably clean, spacious, private home. Stunning, bright current styling. Much nicer than photos suggest, which is rare these days. Great attention to detail in little touches around the entire home and also in facilities like barbecue area’s pretty, automatically triggered fairy lights. Each bed has both firm and soft pillows to use. Comfortable, warm. Flexible check in/check out; covid safe. Lovely owner. Great communication. Eager to ensure stay is perfect without any intrusion. Full sized fridge/freezer in clean, full size kitchen with a kitchen island and anything you could want to cook with while there. Located well for trips within the Hawkesbury region or as a base to explore this part of the mountains. Can’t fault a single thing. Looking forward to planning another stay with you.

Brilliant place to stay
The location was great for us, the outside of the property hid the gem of a place to stay - lovely fitout, comfy beds, great amenities and Sandra is the loveliest of hosts. Everything was absolutely lovely and comfortable - cannot recommend this place too much ... just don't book it up too much that I can't get to stay next time I want to visit!! :) Thank you Sandra, I'm sure we'll be back to stay again.

An amazing place to stay
We had an amazing stay here! Sandra was lovely and a very accommodating host! The place was clean and wonderfully decorated, with everything you could ask for! I especially recommend this to anyone attending events at the Sydney International regatta centre, (it was definitely our good luck charm)! Thanks Sandra!!
