People Like Us Local Guide
Very happy to meet as a PLU local guide! Coffee and local chit chat.
We have just had a fabulous week at Kirsty's wonderful home! As soon as you walk through the gates you just have to say 'wow'... it has a wonderful view across the valley to the ocean and we loved watching a few storms roll in over the Northern Beaches.
The house itself is beautifully presented, clean and spacious.... Not to mention the lovely outdoor decks and of course swimming pool! It is also a beautiful spot to watch the sunrise (if you end up being jetlagged whilst there like us 😂). There was plenty of space for our kids to play, both inside and outside.
It provided such a wonderful base for us to explore, and although you are close to the Manly and city, it also feels very secluded as you look over bushland from the back of the house.
We did some lovely walks in Ku-ring-gai NP, Manly Dam and Shelley Beach. We also went up to Palm Beach and took the Patonga ferry across for lunch, getting beautiful views of Pitwater and visited smaller beaches along the north shore harbour such as Clontarf.
Kirsty's home is such a great place for families to visit.... Lots to do, yet space to just relax, close to shops, amenities and city yet set back enough to get away from it all and enjoy the serenity.
Kirsty was great to communicate with and provided details of the house etc and was there to answer questions if and when we needed.
We will be forever grateful for being able to stay here whilst we visited family and friends 🙏🙏 Thank you so much Kirsty and your family x
We were lucky enough to stay at Kirsty’s family home in the northern shores of Sydney( we exchanged a globe for the privilege ) it was such a fantastic week !
The views are incredible, the heated pool and trampoline kept us entertained for hours.
It was an easy and smooth process and Kirsty was such a pleasure to correspond with - she left a very detailed manual for the house too which was most helpful .
Thank you
This exchange has been such a good experience. The house, pool and view couldn’t be any better and Kirsty and Alex are so kind and helpful. ❤️
Kirsty was lovely to deal with.We met in advance to meet the dogs and see her home.
Her home was great.It had lots of space and beautiful outdoor areas Unfortunately the weather wasn't warm enough for me to use the pool although my son in-law and baby did!
We kept in touch with Kirsty during the trip and hopefully left her home as nicely as she had left it for us.She was a great host with a wonderful relaxing home.
Kirsty & Family left our house is perfect condition, it was like they were never there. I recommend them to future hosts.
Kirsty and her daughter Grace kindly offered to doggo sit for us in lieu of a reciprocal exchange. From what I gather the older boys didn’t leave Grace’s side. Kirsty was great - messaging me to give updates and making sure she was giving the right food and medications. The house was left very clean and tidy.
Michele and family will be guests in our home in Sydney in Dec 2024-Jan 2025. We look forward to having them stay.
We had a wonderful family Christmas at Michele’s house. Plenty of spaces to enjoy for the 10 of us, super comfy beds in a well presented family home. Great supermarkets within a few mins drive are well stocked with local delights. We had the best time and couldn’t recommend it enough.
We loved our country stay at Emma's house in Oxley. Emma's recommendation for local activities were spot on and we had the best time!
Looking forward to having Emma and her family to stay in Sydney next time we go away and our house is free!
It was an absolute pleasure to have Katie and her gorgeous family stay at our house. There was a slight wobbly when the house we were going to moved our stay out by one day but we managed to sleepover at our friends so as not to impact Katie.
And thank you for the thoughtful gifts which were very much enjoyed and not at all expected x happy onwards travels.
So happy Lucy and her extended family could come and stay at ours. I believe they made good use out of the pool! Our house was lovely and tidy on arrival back home. Lucy was super easy to communicate with. Happy travels back to Canada and hope your whole stay in AU was brilliant.
Awww thank you - we had such a great week.
Thank you again for letting us stay in your fabulous home .
We really enjoyed all aspects of having Trine and her gorgeous family to stay at our house. The house was immaculate when we got back and the gifts they left us very thoughtful. My world is now full of 'hygge'! So happy they had the best time and glad I could help finding Miss Silje a horse to ride too! Happy onwards travel to you all :)
My daughter and I had a wonderful relaxing stay at Nat's home with the puppy dogs! The house is beautifully appointed and the view just incredible. The wineries are lovely and Orange is a nice little town. We enjoyed our morning eggs from the chooks and the pool was a nice surprise as it doesn't feature in the photos :)
Highly recommend.

Susan and her extended family (daughter, son in law, and grandson even their dog!) stayed at our house in Sydney whilst we were away camping in remote WA. Susan easy to deal with and looked after our house (and dogs!) really well. So glad you had a lovely time together and happy onwards adventures.
