Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Gill Sutherland

Originally from South Africa and New Zealand, we met in London in our early twenties. We are avid travellers having both visited over 100 countries to date. Now in our early seventies, we returned to Australia 8 years ago after spending the previous 15 years working in Amman, Jordan and Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Although Sydney had been our home base for much of the last 35 years, we found on our return that big city life had lost its appeal and so headed north in search of sun, surf and community. We bought Somervaille, a 15 acre property of predominantly rain forest and native bush. In 2017 and soon thereafter started hosting guests. The last two years we once again headed overseas to continue our travels, exploring, hiking and cycling on 5 of the 7 continents. We returned in November 2023 and are excited to once again start hosting here at Somervaille.
