"Fitzroy is truly one of Australia's hippest neighbourhoods, just two kilometres north-east of Melbourne's city centre. Its home to a string of small boutiques selling everything from vintage clothing to designer fashion. A lively suburb with a bohemian reputation, Fitzroy's eclectic bars and restaurants are popular with students, weekenders and young professionals. Street art covers the narrow backstreets, where small galleries sit alongside corner pubs and terrace houses. Brunswick Street is a trendy retail and nightlife strip, while Gertrude Street is known for its design and art-supply stores, wine bars and buzzy eateries."

Barbara and Wojtek were excellent house-sitters, leaving our place clean and tidy and taking good care of our cat. Highly recommended, we have already arranged for them to look after our house again soon.

There is no doubt that Barbara and Wojciech had the ideal house for our purposes: clean, comfortable, great kitchen, mod-cons. Ideally close to the CBD (and the Napier Pub next door!) and in walking distance to local shops and good coffee. Appreciated friendly communications too.
