A peaceful well-appointed little oasis in a perfect setting!

This outstanding, peaceful little oasis in the Blue Mountains was perfectly situated to provide easy access to all the walks and sightseeing we planned. Extremely well-appointed, immaculately maintained with an awesome private bush garden, all within an easy stroll to Leura Mall, which is full of an amazing array of shops, markets and places to eat. Easy access to all the tourist attractions. Wish we could have stayed much longer. We'll definitely return!

Dear Adrian & Vicki, It was a pleasure have you stay at Bluebell Cottage and leaving it in such good order. With other guests cancelling due to the fires you were a positive 'light' and we appreciate it. Hope you can visit again soon. Valerie & John

Lovely bush cottage

The cottage had everything one would need for an Aussie adventure amongst the trees! So close to the mountains, sights and Leura Mall. Lots of birds and the gardens were a nice place to sit and relax. The cottage has an old charm to it and all amenities you could need. Loved the CD player! Also having some staple pantry supplies came in handy! Only thing is I think it's time for a new couch. I will definitely be back for some R&R.

Lovely property with a few drawbacks

A lovely home with great attention to detail. Valerie and John have thought of everything you could need. A few minor maintenance things that we fed back and I'm sure they'll fix. It is very close to Leura shopping center as advertised, but ... it's seriously steep with no walkways or lighting at night. It's not really walkable. And while there are 2 bathrooms as advertised, the 2nd bathroom which services the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms is located a long way away - right outside bedroom 1. But overall it's a great place to stay. If not wanting to walk into town and the bathroom configuration isn't an issue for you, then we would highly recommend.

Hi Helen Thank you for your feedback re repairs. All done. We have a spotlight comes on automatically covering carport and stairway at night. Also a porch light operating manually to be left on if necessary. Also a railing for extra security. I apologise if you were inconvenienced Valerie.

Gorgeous cottage

Lovely property, with amazing wood fire AND heating. Snowed while we were there, made the experience that much better! Cold outside but toasty in. Great location! Can’t fault property at all.

This fabulous house was perfect for exploring the Blue Mountains. Great location close to the Leura Mall and only a few minutes into Katoomba. House has everything including a coffee machine, electric blankets, heaps of linen, well equipped kitchen and even bird seed for the many birds visiting in the afternoon. Beautiful garden setting.

Great place for a girls weekend!

We were thoroughly impressed with how well furnished the place was with everything you needed and added extras (eg bath salts, candles, bird seed to feed the native birds). The location was also excellent - just a short walk into Leura and yet nice and quiet.
