A two story property
It is located walking distance (10-15 min) from major attractions, plenty of restaurants in the area. Bedrooms (2) are in the second floor by stairs. The property is in an historical heritage building, so layout and space distribution is a little unusual, which adds to the charm. The host is next door and readily available if needed ( we did not have any issues with the property).

Wonderful location, cute decor, lovely hostess.
This darling cottage was a great base for our one night stay before boarding our cruise. The Lord Nelson bar is right across the street, the neighborhood is very walkable and the hostess was very welcoming and helpful.

The Best!
Our family loved staying at the Rocks Cottages. The location was second to none. Quiet neighborhood but still close to everything. Sam gave us excellent recommendations on dining and activities. We really enjoyed our stay in Sydney and staying here was a large part of it. Plenty of room for our family of 5. We would definitely stay here again. Comfortable, clean, close to everything. Thank you, Rocks Cottages!

Pretty but not cozy
It was a lovely place but not comfortable for my family. We didnt feel like we could make any kind of noise due to the "rules" of the neighborhood and the property so we didnt spend much time there. The second bathroom has an enormeous tub that can only be used as a shower and is a bit precarious to get in/out of. It was very hot in Sydney when we were there and the A/C didnt work consistently. Sam was responsive when texted and would reset the breaker but at 1 am when it went out we were stuck in a hot house with no fan and no windows would open. Sam said the AC was overloaded but we would come back after being gone all day and it wouldnt turn on. It is a lovely property it just wasnt right for us for this trip ar this time.
