Neighbourhood
We are in a very quiet street, which is in a valley (the most beautiful valley in the world, we think!). Walking the street, or up the mountain from the house is divine - with an abundance of wildlife to be seen, from wallabies, wombats, echidnas, lyrebirds, king parrots and more!
The closest beach is around 35 minute drive, and Lake Macquarie is just 20 minutes away.
For great restaurants and lake walks, Toronto is perfect - which is about 25 minutes drive. And Gosford on the Central Coast, or Newcastle are both around an hour away.
Nearest airport
Closest airport is Newcastle, which is about 50 minutes away. You will need to hire a car to get here from there. Otherwise, if you fly into Sydney, it is a 2 and a half hour train trip to Morisset. If we are here, we can pick you up!
Getting Around
We can provide you with a car while you are here, if you don't have one.

Leonie
Hello! I'm Leonie and my partner of 38 years is Craig. We are empty nesters, with our 3 grown children living and travelling around the world. We have worked for ourselves for most of our lives, creating board games and products for bringing people together and having meaningful connections. We love our home in the mountains, living in nature and sharing our beautiful space with people.
Our home is a spacious 4 bedroom home, with an adjoining double storey home where we live. We may or may not be in our part of the house when exchanges are made. You will have total privacy in our home and surrounds when you stay - or we are happy to play host!
We will be travelling mostly as a couple, but may include our adult children at times.
People Like Us is the world's most trusted home exchange community. We believe in sharing, trust, generosity, respect, communication, equality, cooperation, honesty, hospitality, friendship, flexibility and adventure. We take pride in our homes and we care about the environment in which we live: our village, city, country and our planet. We care about the ethos of home exchange and we do it because we love the experience and the friendships that it generates.
