This was our first visit at Back Home Bed and Breakfast and we were so happy to have discovered this gem among available accommodations close to Sydney. The rooms are beautiful and spacious and have everything you need for a comfortable stay. We recommend travellers enjoy the delicious breakfasts available in the morning at an extra cost well worth the fee. Our hostess Delores was very friendly and accommodating. We would not hesitate to recommend Back Home Bed and Breakfast … you will not be disappointed! Leslie and Brian Fraser

Property's Favourite Review
Dolores and Greg should write a manual on how to B&B! They have thought of, and provided, everything: incredibly comfortable bed, gorgeous bedding, fluffy towels, bathrobes, toiletries you might have forgotten, delicious breakfast in a spotlessly clean home and more. But the best part of staying here is Dolores and Greg. They are friendly, warm, helpful, and a blast to talk to. Highly recommend!

This B&B is truly one of the nicest in which we've stayed. The Clipper Room is particularly nice (ensuite, opens out to the deck overlooking the horse pasture, full of amenities). Delores and Greg are great hosts. Delores cooked up a fine breakfast both times that we stayed. (We stayed when we took the ferry from Sydney and when we came back on it.) We had a half day to pass in Sydney before the ferry departure, and Greg recommended the fascinating Miners Museum. I would recommend it to anyone traveling through Sydne

Our hosts Delores and Greg were so friendly and helpful in helping us decide on which attractions to see. Delores's breakfast was delicious and we enjoyed every last bit. The rooms were appointed with numerous amenities. We especially enjoyed the towel and robe warmer and interacting and feeding the horses. The king bed was super comfortable. We will be back again. Next time we will have an evening at the fire pit. This BNB comes highly recommended!

Nous avons séjourné une nuit dans cette superbe demeure situé à 5 min au sud de Sydney. Rien à redire ... Grande chambre spacieuse ( exceptionnel) salle de bains privative avec douche et baignoire et des petites attentions nous ont été offerts Le petit-déjeuner était fait maison et copieux. L’accueil a été très sympathique
