The apartment was lovely and Gerard and Janelle have thought of all the little extras you might need for a enjoyable stay. Redhead is a beautiful beachside village only 20 minutes away from Newcastle. I would highly recommend this listing as a peaceful retreat from which to explore Newcastle and surrounds.

A+ in every way....locale, the apartment itself and out hosts were superb. Redhead is not a tourist destination, and one can walk in minutes to the spectacular beach or into town. The hosts provide you with breakfast in their clean, contemporary and well appointed apartment. They are available and not at all intrusive. We wish we had more time to stay!

Wonderful and cozy and lovely house. Hosts are so kind and prepare a lot of things for accomodates. We love this house and keen to be there again.

The instructions to arrive at Gerard's place were simple and accurate. Gerard and Janelle met us showed us through the apartments features and also had breakfast for the first day so that people don't have to go and find provisions on 1st arrival. There is also beer wine et cetera to help out in case you don't get to the shops straight away. Gerard and Jenelle are very thoughtful and as it was going to be a hot week Gerard had gone off to get a fan to make sure that there was air flow through the apartment. The apartment is a downstairs's room that has been recently refurbished very nicely and stays very cool even in hot weather. It is a short walk to the Redhead Beach and Cafe a number of very good restaurants. I went to the hospital for a hip replacement and Jenni stayed at the apartment for the week and was always very well looked after and Gerard and Jenelle helped out in many ways. For a stay at Lake Macquarrie hospital it is the perfect place for a partner to stay. Sent from my iPad

We stayed two nights at this comfortable unit right near the beach. We enjoyed the lovely hospitality and all the thoughtful little extras. Would highly recommend staying with Gerard in redhead.

Gerard was a great host welcoming us and ensuring we had local information that made our stay memorable. The apartment did not disappoint with well maintained furnishing and the provision of more than expected supplies in the fridge and cupboard. We will certainly like to stay here agin in the future.

We had a perfect stay at Redhead with Gerard and Janelle. They were both helpful and accommodating and gave us information on local attractions, shopping and walking tours. The apartment was perfect in every way and we were more than happy with the amenities offered. Everything had been thought of. Although we didnt use the washing machine and drier am sure some travellers would be overjoyed to catch up with personal laundry. Thanks

Great location so close to the beach! Redhead is really beautiful. Gerard was a great host, making us feel at home and making sure we had everything we needed. The place was immaculate. It was very clean and tidy, very spacious, modern, and had all the little extras like coffe machine, DVDs, etc etc. Next time we are in Newcastle this is were we will be staying for sure. 10/10.

Ron & Helen are perfect hosts. The home is perfectly described in the photos, in fact probably better in real life. The rooms are spacious and clean. The doors open to let the sea breezes in - perfect with the ocean at the end of the street ! Check in was easy, and we appreciated the bottle of wine. Ron & Helen supplied a light continental breakfast which was a nice surprise as well. There were some local tips in a notepad for food and drinks, plus some sightseeing places close by. In summary, a very pleasant home, in a great location if you want to spend time relaxing along the Newcastle beaches.

My guys had a great stay and highly recommend Rons place

What a lovely place to stay! Ron was really welcoming and while he was available if needed we were left to enjoy our stay in our own private part of the property. We did some nice cycling on the Fernleigh Track and enjoyed a walk along Redhead Beach.

We had a wonderful start of the year at the Bluff. The place is big, nice, clean, comfortable, well equipped and very well located within walking distance to Redhead beach, and only a short drive to shops and places of interest. Ron & Helen are amazing, friendly hosts, they made us feel at home straight away. They know the area very well, so their tips and indications made our stay even more enjoyable. Would definitely stay there again!

Great place. Super hosts. Very very clean, comfortable... will be back !

We had a lovely stay at Ron and Helen's place for a trip to State nippers. Ron met us there and was very welcoming. They had cereal, juice and a bottle of wine amongst other things for us to have which was very nice. They are downstairs and left us to our own devices for the weekend.

Great place, very clean, very comfortable and quiet .. stay again, no problems.!!

We enjoyed our stay at the lovely Bluff very much. Sitting on the Verandah with a glass of wine in the evening was a favorite. Great location to scenic trails and lookouts! Thank you for the lovely home away from home!

The host canceled this reservation 53 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

The house is very comfortable. It's a quiet area close to the beach. I could use Netflix in a comfortable Sofa. The room was nice too. The host was very friendly and welcoming. I had a good stay.

Nice place to relax

The house is spacious and comfortable. John is a great host.

We had a very comfortable stay at John's place. It was clean, spacious, quiet with easy street parking. We loved the bushy setting and waking to the noise of birds instead of traffic!!

Lovely, clean home. Friendly and kind host.

very good,very clean and really nice guy:)

The house is spectacular! The hard wood floors and natural sunlight are only a few of the splendors of this place. The wifi is great and the tHere are succulents (plants) all over. John came by and was really swell and offered his hospitality. With three bedrooms, it is a great deal!

awesum at Johns,everything you need, very clean and spacious,and John is a great fella!

A lovely welcoming home decorated in a low key beachy style. Walk in the door and you are greeted with stunning bush views through the windows at the rear of the house, with many native birds feeding at the seed tray on the fence. Three double bedrooms with plenty of room, thoughtfully accessorised; room on the couch for extra bodies if necessary. Full kitchen. Very convenient to Charlestown, Dudley and Redhead beaches. All the items needed for a great family stay, including possums on the roof :)

Thank you.

Didn't meet Rachael but we exchanged messages while I was here. Very friendly household and clean and tidy. Would stay here again anytime.

The room is nice and tidy when we arrived and her house mates have been accommodating. The bus stop is right in front of the house as well so commuting shouldn't be a problem if you're not bringing a car. She has 2 pets in the house, a dog and a cat, and they are very adorable and friendly. The host has been very accommodating as well. When our plans changed requiring us to stay longer, she immediately granted our request. I would recommend staying here.

A beautiful hidden gem. The space is lovely and has everything you could ever need. It's very private and you don't feel like there is anyone around you at all. It's so lovely to lie in the VERY comfortable bed of a morning and here nothing but the sounds of the birds, yet only a few minutes drive away from anything you can think of. Clare is a wonderful host,very helpful and considerate.

A beautiful, cosy and quiet unit. Clare and Michael were fantastic hosts for the week and were both incredibly friendly and helpful. Can't recommend them highly enough! Already looking forward to my next stay!

Clare welcomed us with open arms and had the place nice and warm for when we arrived!

Clare's place was beautifully decorated with a comfy, big bed and the best shower in the world! The place is great for a secluded getaway being a 15 minute drive to Newcastle town. Clare made the place easy to check in to and private. WiFi was not so well connected, however, Netflix was available on the T.V so this wasn't a problem at all. Highly recommended for a cosy time away :)

Our stay here was one of the best we've had whilst traveling around NSW and VIC for a month. Clare was so generous with all the little bits of food and drink supplied. We had so much that we did not need to use any of our food. The mattress was so super comfy I feel like buying one of those myself. All in all we had a lovely stay and hope we can return sometime. We can also highly recommend the craft beer cafe in Newcastle called the Grain Store. 5 Star experience. Martina and Sean.

A very confortable and nice place to stay. Clare provides all we need, she is a lovely host. It was a pleasure spending a night at her place. We felt at home.

Clare turned the heater on before we arrived and the space is very clean, cosy and comfortable. Big modern bathroom, tv and comfortable bed. Netflix worked great and easy to find address with plenty of street parking. Would recommend to stay here. Clare is a very helpful and considerate host. 10/10!!

Clare's granny flat is a large, nicely decorated, very comfortable, private space, equipped with everything you need to have an enjoyable stay in Newcastle. Very comfortable bed. I only stayed at Clare's one night, leading up to an interview in Newcastle. Clare was kind and prompt with communication, left an iron/board and heater for me, and supplied some beautiful breakfast items (including real coffee and some yum granola). Thank you very much!

Amazing hosts! Made my friends and I feel at home. Offered to help out wherever they could. Highly recommend

Very helpful hosts. Accurate representation on website. thanks

Gary's home is lovely and big. It was also very clean and the amenities inside were good. The neighbourhood is peaceful and quiet. I will highly recommend his place!

Although, we did not meet Gary, easy communication and had no problems checking in. The place was ideal for us during our stop over at the hunter region. Would recommend.

From the time Gary contacted us 3 days before our arrival we felt looked after and welcomed. The apartment was very spacious and clean and suited the three of us really well for our 10 day stay. The area was very quiet and as we had a car we were only a few minutes away from good supermarkets and other shops. Any queries during our stay were responded to immediately. We would definitely stay again if we return to Belmont.

Garry was one of those really nice people. We had the mother-In -law for Christmas who just came down from the country , she loved it that much she wanted to live there. Absolutely perfect

It was my first experience with airbnb and Gary made it really nice expirence. As we needed fond the place to stay for one night at that day Gary was very quick with responding and welcome us nicely. His place is realy nice and we felt there homely. Definitely would recomend. Thank you Gary for letting us stay.

Comfortable place in a nice suburb. The room has everything you need and Gary made sure we were comfortable

Carolyn was extremely helpful in her directions, greeting and helping us settle into her lovely unit for our stay. The unit is located very centrally in Newcastle to shops, doctor, chemist, cafes, restaurants and a short drive to the beautiful Lake Macquarie. The unit is very large, clean, bright, light with the best quality bedding, linen - even Wedgwood to use daily. Pantry and fridge were full of condiments which we were allowed to use. We slept well in the very comfortable double bed and our son visited and was happy to sleep on our camp bed even though the lounge was on offer. We would recommend this unit to anyone who is in Newcastle for either holiday or business and we would love to come back and stay on other occasions.

Our host was very helpful and generous. We couldn't have wished for better everything we could possible want was there. It was very clean, great location to beach and shopping. Would defiantly recommend this place.

Our host Carolyn was a lovely lady, who had thought of everything: a trolley to make it easy to take bits and pieces from our car up the lift, also providing fresh food and access to her pantry! The unit was spacious and well appointed, located in the centre of Charlestown, close to shops and restaurants, with a huge balcony looking over the hinterland and Newcastle in the distance. There was some traffic noise during the day, but we were never there, so it was no trouble.

This was the first time using Air BnB, so was unsure what to expect. In short, it was a great experience & won't be the last time I use the service. I was met @ the unit, & shown the facilities available. The unit was exceptionally clean & well stocked for a traveller. It is in a secure block & close to a major shopping centre & public transport. I felt at home, safe and used all the facilities. Carolyn was the perfect host & the units was well stocked with consumables, ie, toiletries & tea/coffee etc. The hand over on entry & exit was easy. There is secure parking which worked efficiently & being by myself, using it late at night was reassuring.

Carolyn, kindly met us on our arrival, despite that being after 10pm. She showed us the underground parking arrangements before showing us around the apartment and explaining where everything was. The apartment is lovely, open plan and if anything the rooms and balcony are more spacious than the photos suggest. The kitchen is well equipped. Local supermarkets are open until late and are only a 5 min walk away in a nearby mall. The location is great for exploring the local area: Newcastle city centre is only about 15 mins drive away, whale watching tours about an hour up the coast, and the Hunter Valley wine region an hour in the other direction.

Carolyn was very helpful in organizing our arrival at the unit. While she was unavailable to meet me she made sure her son Daryl was available to meet me . Daryl was more than helpful and showed me where everything was an din particular how the security in the building operated. We needed to stay a few hours after the check out time and Carolyn was most generous in facilitating this for us. Thank you Carolyn.

In our host's absence due to another commitment, she made sure her daughter was on hand to help us settle in. From the start we had a great stay for four weeks, in a very well appointed apartment in an excellent location for us in the Newcastle area (Charlestown, with ready access to the Charlestown Square Mall, Redhead and Kotara). The apartment has a great 6th floor aspect to the east. Thoroughly recommended.

Great location, close to amenities, very comfortable and safe apartment

Had an amazing and comfortable stay at Dana's place. The granny flat had everything I could ask for. Dana is a great host and attended to anything I needed and made sure I felt comfortable from day one. The place is great - close to shops and amenities. Would definitely stay there again!!

Aaron was a fabulous host, very understanding and communication was made easy with Aaron. Would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for some beautiful accomodation in Newcastlw! :-)

The host canceled this reservation 2 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

It was a convenient location with good access to connecting roads. House was neat and clean and the cats were friendly!

Thanks for welcoming me into your home, Lyssa.

Big thank you to Lyssa whom is a delightful lady and fabulous host . The home is a beautiful older style with fabulous timber floors and a very comfy bed !! Wish I could stay again but she is booked out !! A big thank you

Lyssa was a very nice host and made me feel very welcome! The room was nice and private. I had a lovely stay! You have to like cats though, which I really do! They are lovely! I had my own car which made it easy to go places and there was a big shopping center nearby. Further Lyssa her place is quite central to have a look arround Newcastle. This place I certainly recommend to others!

A very pleasant host and comfortable room at a great price. Thank you.

Lys was easy going and made me feel welcome. Would recommend

This space was perfect for me. I was in Newcastle attending a workshop that was a ten minute drive away. I could prepare my own food, use the internet, exchange interesting conversation with Lyssa and have quiet space to recharge too. Lyssa was really friendly, welcoming and very accommodating practically as well. Fabulous really!

Lyssa made me feel very welcome and was always keen to assist with any queries. Her house is in a very good location close to major shopping centres with safe parking and a quiet neighbourhood. All in all, a very enjoyable stay!

Lovely stay, the doggy is very friendly. The place is clean, central to everything. Would highly recommend :)

Nice place and very central. Friendly hosts. Has everything you need.

A great place to stay. Very clean and well presented. Great location

Second stay at Kookaburra Cabin - same great experience - quiet, peaceful, just right for me at the moment. A little home away from home

Rob's place was perfectly like the picture, if your looking for a cabin get away that's close to town and all the essentials then this will be the perfect place.

A perfect place to stay! Clean, attractive, lovely hosts, gorgeous dog!

My third stay at Kookaburra Cabin and it was as good as ever! It is impeccably clean, so comfortable and very handy. Great hosts - excellent communication and happy to have a chat and make sure everything is ok. And as always, the gorgeous Charlie was forever ready for a play or a pat!

Have stayed here before & will stay here again. Lovely spot, awesome location & the owners are very lovely. Perfect stay xx

Place was great! close to shops, quiet area, lots of parking space, Nice and cosy living room and bedroom was big and spacious, great bathroom. Host provided great tips on what to see in Newcastle etc. Will stay again.

Smart New house, lovely back garden. Spacious. Didn't check out local area as this was a quick overnighter for us, but supermarkets close by and owner on hand for anything. Believe beautiful beaches locally. Would def recommend.

Great space and really comfortable. Kids were entertained with Netflix, which we don't have, and enjoyed the space outside too. Great value for us and had all the amenities we needed.

Very nice place to stay. Ample street parking for larger vehicles. Suitable for short or long term stay. Quiet location. Would thoroughly recommend.

Brand new, comfortable, quiet townhouse only 10 minutes from city with great friendly host.

PERFECT!!! Great place to stay a few days or longer with the family or a couple of friends. Everything is around (a couple of beaches, nature trails, shopping center, ...) Thanks a lot for the possibility to stay here!

Great value, host was helpful, will be back

Mello's place has a modern look and is nice and comfy. She was really approachable and gave us some great suggestions for food! It will be an ideal home if you will like to experience living like a local.

Would recommend time and time again. Went above and beyond.

lovely apartment, close to shops and water. Well equipped, very thoughtful host, even prepared menus of nearby restaurants in a folder for guests. Very neat and clean as well.

Thanks Scott and kate for your beautifully appointed apartment. Quality fittings, from fluffy towels and comfy beds to added extra touches such as fresh milk, security parking, netflix . Would highly recommend this apartment and will be back!

Scott provides a very clean, modern and well located apartment. Highly recommended

Rest stop was equipped with everything you need and more. The apartment was so modern and spotless. Any configuration of bedding was available so perfect for 3 women.

This apartment is very clean and sweet. It is a good choice to live here.

I stayed at Scott's place to have a look around the area, it was very central to experience Newcastle and the Macquarie Lake scenic tour. For dining out you have to visit "Deck 56 Restaurant" it was superb and within walking distance, we had breakfast & dinner there....Yum! I would certainly recommend Scott's place it was clean, well equipped and comfortable for 3-4 people.

A modern, well appointed apartment, extremely clean and comfortable.
