John and Elizabeth were lovely. There house and garden were lovely and they were knowledgeable and helpful.

Central Location to amenities, eg. shops, cafes, beaches, lake. The accommodation was in a tranquil bushland setting & the apartment extremely well appointed. Host was very helpful & friendly. Highly recommend. Looking forward to returning very soon!

Everything: desk and wifi so I could work, real sized shampoo, conditioner etc, great kitchen setuo. Chickens! Lizards, puppies, books, dvds, soft towels

The location is quiet and away from the busyness of traffic etc. Great hosts, place is older style but impeccably clean and comfortable. Great full kitchen. Great barbecue area. Wish we could have stayed longer. Great place to just rest.

costly, clean, homely feel , generous in supplies and next to the forest.

Location is great, with lots for kids to do and only stones throw from Newcastle.

Location, facilities and comfortable home feeling.

The apartment has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Shops are close and Warners Bay is just a short drive away.

We have stayed here for a few times. We just love everything about Werekataba. Elizabeth and John are friendly hosts. The location is perfect for visiting our family members. The place is unique, peaceful and comfortable....we are so grateful for finding this place.

Very comfortable and private “home away from home”, everything was just perfect. Comfy beds, great TV set-up in a comfortable lounge-room, eat-in kitchen with a few yummy snacks provided. The weather was very cold and rainy but excellent heating was provided and the beds even had the added luxury of electric blankets, so we didn’t mind at all staying in in such a cosy home. Unfortunately due to the weather we were unable to explore the beautiful gardens, but will definitely plan on a return stay.
