We stayed at the Art House for 7 days in January 2016 (2 adults, 4 kids). The house and location were both sublime. Coogee is a great beach (t's an easy walk - you will spend a lot of time there!) and has beautiful boardwalks through the scrub and wetlands that sit on the edges of the cliffs. The walk to Bondi is beautiful. Also recommend snorkelling at Clovelly. Circular Quay city is a 40 minute bus ride away. The house is an absolute treasure, and Linda and Charles were gracious and more than helpful hosts. We loved it and would most certainly would stay again.

Our extended family stayed in both apartments for 5 nights to celebrate a wedding and to have a family gathering. The owners are charming and helpful and accommodated our requests for a slightly earlier check in and check out. The location is stunning - a quiet neighbourhood in a busy Sydney seaside suburb - and only possible because of the age of the house. It is an old house but renovated and quite liveable. Direct, uninterrupted views of the ocean are very rare in Sydney and on a sunny day, it is hard to take the smile off your face. The combined houses provide 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, with a mix of king (1) and queen (4) beds and one bedroom with 2 singles. The photos on the website are accurate. There were heaters, ceiling fans and electric blankets in every room, which is rare. There is a washer and dryer in each apartment. The kitchens are small but well stocked with utensils. There is off street parking for 2 cars but I would not call it secure parking. However, there are plenty of free parking spots on the road, at least in winter. The location is as described. In particular, if you have a function to attend at the Coogee Beach surf club and you want family in one place, this is the venue for you.
Loved our too short stay at this delightful arty and very comfortable house. A short walk to the magnificent Coogee beach and rock pools. We had a very relaxing time. Only complaint we had to leave too early - a 10 am check out - and wish we had a few more days.

My husband and I stayed with my daughter and her family and my sister in the Art House top level for Christmas 2014.
The house was larger than we expected and the views were wonderful. ! The floor plan is great with two bathrooms and a small back yard where the grandchildren could play. The location of the house is in a very quite street away from the hustle and bustle but still close enough to Coogee beach (10 minute walk) the baths ,park and shops.The house sits across the road to the coastal walk way to Bondi, so for those who like amazing scenery on their morning walk it is wonderful. The art work throughout the house also provides topic for much discussion.
We had a great family Christmas and enjoyed our stay here!

Family holiday to visit relatives in Sidney and celebrate a 30th birthday.
12 of us rented both the upper and lower levels of the house.
Linda was very helpful and helped arrange the surprise on the day!
House was very well equipped and comfortable.
The views are exceptional and we were lucky to see whales on quite a few occasions.
Coogee is a beautiful beach and the walk to Bondi is a must.
I would recommend both this house and Coogee for a holiday to remember.
We thouroughly enjoyed our long weekend in the 'Art House' Great location with views across the ocean. A very quiet neighbourhood, walking distance into Coogee and a 20min drive into Sydney. We would recomend without hesitation.

We had such a wonderful time, better than a hotel. It had life and character and inspiration all over the walls. Stunning views.
If we stay in Sydney again we will try and book this place, I would live there!
Lovely owners too, could have spent all afternoon chatting over a culpa :)
Thanks for having us.
