Description

A neat 3 bdrm, 4 bathroom brick house with all amenities. There is a pleasant roof garden ideal for relaxing at the end of the day.
There is also a good selection of DVDs in the living room for the quieter moments at home. There is a housekeeper (cooking, cleaning and laundry) & nightguard available if requested.

We have a small car and 5 bicycles available although we have found that most visitors prefer to use tuktuks and motorbike taxis (both quite cheep) because the traffic can be hectic.

Neighborhood

The house is in a popular residential quarter of Phnom Penh about 30 minutes from the airport with very easy access to all the citie's attractions, markets and restaurants.
It is a great base for bigger adventures across Cambodia to Angkor Wat, Rattanikirri or the beach resorts. The following website is an excellent guide - we use it all the time:

About Us

We are an Australian family of 4 with 2 girls (10 & 14) that has been living in Cambodia for many years. Whilst we regularly return to Australia to visit family, we also like to travel more widely having visited most of the countries in the region as well as places as far as Japan, Norway, Denmark and England.

I am the Director for Oxfam America & my wife works for UN. We have a little dog & cat that live outside the house.
We can speak Khmer but it is no longer essential because so many people around Cambodia now speak excellent English and some French

Destination

There is some flexibility around dates. Essentially we must coincide with school holidays.
At the moment we are looking to holiday is Spain in July 2008 but are open to other destinations in the future.
