We aim to make your stay as comfortable as it can possibly be! We like to help our guests create beautiful family memories in our home. For us to do so, we would truly appreciate it if you can follow these house rules and confirm that is has been reviewed WITHIN 48 HOURS OF YOUR BOOKING. This is to ensure that if there is any reason the House Rules cannot be followed, you, our guest, will have the option of cancelling the booking penalty free as we have a Strict Cancellation policy. Thank you in advance and truly appreciate your cooperation!
- The sewerage system is a septic tank. NOTHING can be flushed down the toilets other than human excrement and toilet paper. Dental floss and sanitary items MUST NOT be put in toilet. When these items are flushed in the toilet, they clog the system. There is considerable cost to repair the septic system, for which guests will be charged if these items are found in the system.
- The piano was my great grand-mothers. PLEASE be respectful, it is not as robust as it used to be. You may play it, but wash hands beforehand, and no drinks or food on or near the piano.
- Keep noise to a minimum after 11pm.
- Smoking is not permitted inside the home. Extra cleaning fees to remove odor and stains may be applied.
- Please stack the dishwasher and wash anything else after use. If dishes are not washed, extra cleaning fees may be applied.
- PARKING: parking is provided in the driveway. Our driveway allows your car to be partly covered. Be careful reversing so as not to drive into/over the sandstone guttering.
- Feel free to use the barbecue outside that is set up for our guests’ leisure use. Please clean up after yourselves and keep the grill clean. If found left dirty and requires extra cleaning, an extra cleaning fee may be required.
- Please acknowledge that occasionally we may leave consumables such as condiments or snacks left behind by previous guests if they are not empty. We try our very best to ensure that it is not expired or stale. However, ultimately, it is up to the guests' discretion and inspection to consume these items if they wish. The host does not take any responsibility for the consumables.
- Garbage bins are in front of the garage. Blue lid is recyclable paper/cardboard. Yellow lid is recycling glass/bottles & plastic containers, and Red lid is all other waste.
- Please do not rearrange the furniture.
- Events are not permitted. If you would like to host an event (i.e. wedding, graduation, not party), please speak with us about it first.
- If guests are found to have had a party without host permission which results in extra cleaning, guests will be responsible for extra cleaning charges and in the unfortunate event of the significant disruptions to neighbours, and police are called, guests will be asked to vacate the property immediately.
- If guests are suspected of carrying and/or using illegal drugs of any kind, the authorities will be engaged, and guests will be asked to vacate the property immediately.
- Lastly, because this is not a hotel and is also my home when I stay in Sydney, please be respectful of the property and keep it clean before you leave. (Respect our property and our things)
