We had such a lovely stay at Riley’s in Katoomba. This great little cottage is in a quiet location with a beautiful outlook over the bushman’s. It’s warm and cosy and equipped with everything you need for a relaxing weekend away. The beds were incredibly comfortable and the cottage is a quick trip up the road to the shops or the Three Sisters. It was the perfect spot for our girls weekend away. Shower was amazing! The host was friendly and so easy to deal with. We would absolutely love to stay again - old world charm - highly recommend

The cottage was immaculate on arrival. The fire was ready if we wanted it and the gas heater kept everything nice and warm. We had everything we needed and we loved our stay.

Riley’s Cottage was perfect for the two of us for a week’s stay (and our son and partner for a couple of nights at no extra charge). It was very warm - we only needed the gas fireplace and the underfloor heating in the bathroom. The owner responded very quickly when the pilot light on the heater went out and we were able to relight it quickly and easily. The outlook from the dining and living area was beautiful and received sun all day. There was comfortable seating for four people (a rarity even in places that accommodate four-plus). The location was quiet and peaceful, but only ten minutes walk from the main street. We had a lovely time - thank you!

Stay at Riley's Cottage

Wonderful stay. The location was brilliant. The hosts set the gas fire place before we got there so that despite the cold we arrived in, the arrival was super cosy.
