The space The studio apartment is an independent part of our home and is the only living area on the ground floor. It is modern and tastefully furnished. It can be open to enjoy the views and bay breezes or snug and private with the block-out curtains closed. The granite patio is yours to enjoy with an adjustable shade awning, manicured garden and those views of the bay as the tide goes in and out. The apartment is more spacious and light than the photos indicate as I've been told by many guests. It has high ceilings, marble floors and bathroom, high quality fixtures, curtains and paintings. It has a fully equipped kitchenette with convection- grill microwave, electric frypan & toasted sandwich press. There’s also an electric barbecue on the patio. The bathroom is equipped with shampoo, conditioner and soaps as well as towels. There are beach towels for taking out on trips to Coochie or Straddie. The sofa faces the TV and DVD, as well as the view, with surround sound and some DVDs are provided for your use. We have a few more upstairs. There are also books about the area and an assortment of novels. The bed is Queen sized with cotton sheets, a quilt and cotton blanket and an assortment of pillows to suit everyone. There’s a folding arm awning over the patio area for adjustable shade in summer. The granite patio has table and chairs to enjoy breakfast, read a book or just the enjoy the view and breezes. The manicured lawn and gardens enhance the experience. The floors are natural marble which is absorbent and easily etched by acids such as fruit juice and scratched by sand and any hard surface. We'd ask that you please wipe your shoes well on the front mat and avoid bringing in sand and dragging or rolling cases or furniture on the floor. There is a security screen on the sliding glass door beside the bed that can be left open except when wind & rain are expected. The louvres near the kitchenette and the ones in the bathroom are also security screened and can be left open for flow through ventilation at all times. The ceiling fan provides extra air movement when it's hot or the air conditioner can be used of a day time. At night, the air conditioner compressor unit is a bit noisy up in our living area and for the neighbours, so unless it's a very hot night, so we'd ask you to use it sparingly (see Rules). Parking is diagonally across the single lane road, or in the driveway. We can be accessed for assistance via the intercom in the apartment or at our front door round the side of the house. We live above and will endeavour to keep our noise to a minimum for your comfort and give you as much privacy as we can. Guest access The ground floor independent studio apartment is accessed by your key. The garage with storage, gym & sporting equipment is accessible on request. The upstairs area and back yard is our home and not open to guests and is accessed by separate entry. Guests who are staying for some days may be able to access the laundry by arrangement. Other things to note We do have a dog but she is kept upstairs and in the back yard unless you want to meet her. She's old and deaf. Lindsay is co-host and our 30 something year old son Daniel and his partner Carly are are reserves for when we are away. They'll make sure everything is ready, greet you and generally provide the same level of service as Cathy has become known for. They will just be a phone call away instead of intercom!
