Balmain: Only 15 minutes from the CBD, Balmain is located on a peninsular. It has a large selection of shops, restaurants, pubs, bakeries and cafes. The Cottage is only a five minutes stroll to the centre of the village. Enjoy a 15 minute ferry trip to Circular Quay or a bus ride into the city from the end of our street. Balmain has an interesting history which is reflected in its different styles of architecture. Wander the narrow streets and enjoy the sights of historic buildings and spectacular views of the Harbour Bridge.

The Balmain markets are held on Saturdays at St Andrew’s Congregational Church which is just around the corner from your Cottage. The Rozelle Markets held on Saturdays and Sundays are more of a flea market. Just in case you want a different kind of market, Sydney’s latest Grower’s Market in Lilyfield, is another great experience.

Your accommodation is a comfortable cottage, built in 1865. You could sit on the verandah with a glass of wine and enjoy the tree-lined street or relax in the lounge and enjoy the features such as polished timber floorboards, sandstone fireplace and iron-pressed ceiling. The bedroom is cosy and warm with an en-suite bathroom. It has a double bed, night tables, a clothes stand, shelved module and a wardrobe.
Wireless Internet connection available (charges apply).
