Sea-view Walpole Bay Writer’s Retreat

Loft overlooking Walpole Bay. On the 3rd floor, no lift! NO TV!!! This is a tranquil place with quirks - it's a boho hangout rather than five-star hotel. Please don't book if you like a TV as you'll be disappointed. It’s around 15-20 minutes walk to the Turner or Botany Bay. Light-filled, quiet, big views. A hanging chair so you can literally hang out. Ercol chairs, House of Hackney fabric.
