Welcome to Sandy's Place

To those planning to visit the Hawkesbury or the Blue Mountains. I'd like to extend a warm welcome. G'Day, I'm Sandy, your Host

While only 5 minute drive from the town of Richmond, Agnes Banks maintains a rural residential character and is home to a charming, fully self-contained holiday haven. It offers a peaceful and relaxing escape. Use it as a perfect base to discover the historic towns of Hawkesbury and the breath taking Blue Mountains where you will see The Three Sisters'

I will include some personal photos taken recently of the Three Sister's and a wonderful moment experiencing a Pink Moon. Also the Sydney Zoo which I would definitely recommend, and is only 20 minutes away (photo's are shown with consent of the guests)

Richmond offers the perfect blend of convenience and accessibility. You’ll be just 5 minutes drive from Richmond Shops, Cafes, Polo Clubs, University and RAAF Base. You can enjoy an easy run into Penrith. Plus Sydney Airport is a 55 minutes drive and Katoomba is just 40 minute away - traffic permitting

Sandy's Place is the ideal accommodation for Families, Corporate and Blue Collar Workers' . With Unlimited Wifi

It boasts of being a luxurious/lovely 2 bedroom with 3 very comfortable beds exceptional linens and block out curtains for that perfect nights sleep. Everything has been done and provided with the comfort of my guests in mind

Come and enjoy all that the Hawkesbury and the Blue Mountains have to offer

The Master bedroom is stylish and comfortable. (see photos) It also has a television and an armchair to offer you, your own private space. With a ceiling fan for added comfort on those hot days. Dressing gowns are also provided.

The second bedroom is also one of my favourite rooms (see photos) it has been restyled to give a touch of luxury. It has 2 comfortable single beds. Blackout curtains are perfect for that good nights sleep. Ceiling fan, mirrored wardrobe and adult dressing gowns.

Brilliant place to stay

The location was great for us, the outside of the property hid the gem of a place to stay - lovely fitout, comfy beds, great amenities and Sandra is the loveliest of hosts. Everything was absolutely lovely and comfortable - cannot recommend this place too much ... just don't book it up too much that I can't get to stay next time I want to visit!! :) Thank you Sandra, I'm sure we'll be back to stay again.

Made us feel at home 🏡

Sandy’s place was a perfect place for us to stay locally while our house had renovations completed. The property is everything as described in the listing and more (including a beautiful entry path) but she also went above and beyond to make sure we had a comfortable homely stay and my kids were happy. Couldn’t thank her enough! Would recommend as a great place to stay if visiting the Hawkesbury!

Property quality plus unfortunately the owner was less than inviting and was rather discriminatory in relation to my adult son who is intellectually disabled.

A hidden jewel

Impeccably clean, spacious, private home. Stunning, bright current styling. Much nicer than photos suggest, which is rare these days. Great attention to detail in little touches around the entire home and also in facilities like barbecue area’s pretty, automatically triggered fairy lights. Each bed has both firm and soft pillows to use. Comfortable, warm. Flexible check in/check out; covid safe. Lovely owner. Great communication. Eager to ensure stay is perfect without any intrusion. Full sized fridge/freezer in clean, full size kitchen with a kitchen island and anything you could want to cook with while there. Located well for trips within the Hawkesbury region or as a base to explore this part of the mountains. Can’t fault a single thing. Looking forward to planning another stay with you.

An amazing place to stay

We had an amazing stay here! Sandra was lovely and a very accommodating host! The place was clean and wonderfully decorated, with everything you could ask for! I especially recommend this to anyone attending events at the Sydney International regatta centre, (it was definitely our good luck charm)! Thanks Sandra!!
