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

Perfect
Stayed 10 nights. Wonderful lovely host. Nice quiet area. Very clean, comfy beds & very well equipped kitchen. Nice & private with own personal area. Would definitely stay again.
Property quality plus unfortunately the owner was less than inviting and was rather discriminatory in relation to my adult son who is intellectually disabled.

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!

Comfortable and clean. Plenty of space.

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.

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.

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!!
