About the Space…

The Bond Store, Newcastle’s most stylish short stay accommodation, is equally close to the beach and the harbour - a spacious 160 square metres of architect designed warehouse apartment in the heritage listed 1895 Cohen Bond Store.

Opening straight onto the Foreshore Park, grab the picnic basket and explore the park, Newcastle Beach, the Ocean Baths, Nobby’s Beach, the historic Fort Scratchley and all the action of a busy working harbour.

Furnished with original and authentic classics from Charles and Ray Eames, Pierro Lissoni, Isamu Noguchi, Phillipe Starck, EOOS and Bouroullec for Knoll, Vitra, Herman Miller, Kartell and van Treight, you will delight in their beauty, while appreciating the easy comfort of their design genius. Completing the feeling that you have your own private but welcoming gallery, the 2-foot-thick warehouse walls are hung with dozens of original artworks – many of which are available for purchase.

Ideal for active families, right outside your door are kilometres of skating, cycling, walking and running, sprawling acres to fly kites or kick a ball, and a children’s playground only 80 metres across the lawn. All with the opportunity to cook up a feast in the full-size, seriously well-equipped, kitchen.

Or if you’ve heard the whispers – wow, Newcastle has changed! – you’ll come stay with a group of friends for the edgiest restaurants and cafes, coolest bars and most sessionable craft brewhouses, all within easy walking distance from The Old Bond Store.

The most jaded executive traveller will find their new home away from home – soaking up the space, style and privacy.  Wedding parties will love primping and preening in the generous spaces, the deep eggshell bath, and the two luxurious bathrooms, with the park and beaches right at your doorstep for photos and memories.
