August 2003
My wife and I stayed in a fascinating and memorable guest house
for 3 days in September 2003 in Fremantle. We chose Fremantle
rather than Perth for more of the origins of Western Australia
resided here. An original design that an open mind will find
magical. The main bedroom is in a converted railway carriage
with the kitchen in a wheelhouse. There are two showers, one of
which is in a red telephone booth! With a bathroom in the
garden, a few surprises are a fully equipped kitchen, a lawn,
BBQ, sun chairs and sun deck. Much more to discover yet we only
had 3 days! If you are looking for the ultimate experience, a
gracious and knowledgeable guest, and if this is not
booked--STOP! This is IT!!!!!!!

(The following
text has been inserted into the Footprints Handbook, a travel guide
available globally)
"A private oasis sheltered by high whitewashed walls, this
charming guest house is utterly original and quite magical. Sleeps
six, four in a cosy converted railway
carriage. The kitchen fits into a wooden wheelhouse, shower in a
red
telephone box, bathroom in the garden. Also a lawn, BBQ, sun lounges,
sun deck and lots of tranquil leafy corners for a snooze. Recommended."
I wish you every success with 100 Hubble.

Lucia, Ross,
Janine and I enjoyed immensely our mission in your timeless and
splendid microcosm. Every few steps, another cue to a different
era and changing values excited our wonder. Its unlikely we shall
ever again find ourselves in such a relaxing little urban catacomb
of creature comforts and personal touches borrowed from lives of
those who have passed by in your historic city. You Andrew, have
created an artform that shall be emulated, but will never be copied
as it is, if nothing else, peerless. The atmosphere is one which
reflects your loving dedication to your great work. Unforgettable.

Dear Andrew,
Your place is
one of the most memorable discoveries in Australia. After seeing
your place it does not matter if I leave without visiting "The
Rock". I will be back again with friends. Thanks for your hospitality.
