Hideaway apartment in bustling beachside suburb, short walk to city attractions
Wind down or live it up; Bar Beach has lots to offer. Savour the delights of popular Darby Street eateries after a swim at beautiful Bar Beach. If relaxing in the courtyard is your thing, the private pebbled entryway takes you to your hideaway apartment where you can wind down among the plants in your own, private courtyard. With a kitchenette on hand equipped with bar fridge, microwave and hot plate you can keep your food and drinks cool and fresh. Explore a myriad of cycle-paths and waterfront walks or visit the nearby art gallery or museum. When night falls take a leisurely walk to the beach for a sunset kissed picnic, take a trip to the theatre or dance the night away in our local watering holes.

This was the perfect little apartment for our weekend in Newcastle - quiet & private, a short walk to shops, cafes, restaurants & the beach, & only a 20 minute stroll to the CBD. The apartment was amazing value, beautifully decorated, modern & spacious with everything we could need. Definitely recommend staying here & would love to do it again!
This is a lovely, quiet, secluded space with a beautiful, private courtyard. The kitchen is basic, as described, but that was fine for me, as I was mostly eating out. The hosts were kind and communicative when I reached out to ask questions.
Really nice place to stay that's very close to the action in Newcastle - would definitely pick this location again :)

Very comfortable, and well equipped.
Be aware that you need to walk up a sloped driveway and walk on a narrow loose-stone pathway to reach the apartment.
Cozy little apartment close to Bar Beach and Darby St. Amazing hosts who were super helpful and friendly. Highly recommend and will hopefully stay again some time.
