Hilltop Hideaway Merewether Family Escape

8/10 Good
"We stayed at this property for two nights. We had a lovely stay. There are lots of stairs! But with this comes a terrific view! It's so nice to sit out on the balcony and have a drink.Out of the five bedrooms, three were great, one other, the bed was quite small and the last room, the one with the single beds was not comfortable for the girls that slept there. Here is her review.I stayed in the accommodation with some friends, my bedroom was on the lower level and had x2 beds in it. I found there was a strong odour of mould in the room, making it very unpleasant and difficult to sleep. I was also concerned about sleeping in a room that may have an issue with mould. I have fed my concern back to the owner and I’m hoping they do their due diligence and thoroughly check this room for any signs of mould, as the odour certainly indicated that there was mould present.I have reported the issues and have been given a 10%refund. They feel that the issue is dampness, but we are not sure.There are two satisfactory bathrooms and an extra toilet which was great. Lots of seating around the dining and lounge.We had a mini bus and could park this on the driveway."
