  • "I've stayed in many Airbnbs and Claire's was THE BEST I've ever stayed in! From the quality of the ammenity accessions to the bed linen and decor, this wasn't an average experience. It felt luxurious however so very homely and comfortable. I can see this hidden gem becoming the hottest new Airbnb in Freo!

  • A truly remarkable place to stay. So thoughtfully put together, with so many wow moments : two pristine bikes with baskets to take in South Freo in the best way possible, tea and coffee selection, fresh honey and biscuits, all the necessary condiments supplied, the exquisite hand soaps, eco friendly cleaning supplies and the curated book collection. All of it, totally amazing. This home is exquisitely furnished and styled, you will feel instantly at home, and will never want to leave. A 6-star Airbnb experience. Its beautiful!

  • We loved our stay at Claire’s place. Beautiful character cottage, comfy linen, homely spaces, thoughtful inclusions and a lovely green garden made this the perfect stay for when my family came to visit us in Perth. We loved how walkable the property was - 10 minutes was all it took to reach the heart of Fremantle. Highly recommend!
