Other things to note A little about me. Originally from the Yorkshire, England and have lived in Sydney for over eight years. I have always loved the mountains area especially as growing up in the Yorkshire Dales. The Blue Mountains means so much than that, it is a place where we feel totally relaxed, where we can escape the hustle and bustle of Sydney and enjoy a slower pace of life and enjoy the many walks of the Blue Mountains.
As soon as we saw Highside Cottage, fell in love with it. After much hard work, very excited to share it with you. We hope you feel completely comfortable here and enjoy it as much as we do.

We loved everything about our stay; the Cottage was well equipped, everything of high quality and clean. Great location between Leura and Katoomba and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend Highside Cottage to anyone, will definitely be back.
We spent a fe ays in the Blue Mountains in the winter. The property was in a fantastic location and was lovely and warm. It was very clean and felt like a more traditional family home than a holiday rental, which is just what we wanted. I would highly recommend!
Lovely stay at Hillside. Made use of both indoor and outdoor fire. Very clean and tidy. Beds were comfortable and warm. Well stocked kitchen. Would definitely recommend and stay again. Close drive to everywhere.
Such a lovely, cosy house. Our family had a great week staying here. The host was able to answer all our questions. Great heating throughout and even not hot inside on a very hot day. Would stay here again!
Good hearing throughout , comfortable bed and lounge area , well stocked kitchen and welcome gift appreciated . Needs new cookware and range hood did not work . Beware driveway which is tricky - on a hill so difficulties expected Located between Katoomba and Leura so not particularly central . One noisy neighbours banging around at all hours .

Hi YW - Thanks for the review, and we are pleased you had a great stay.
Driveway - we shared instructions on the driveway ahead of your stay and the ramp (maybe you missed this email)
Neighbours are always very quiet, and we haven't had any issues in over 3 years.
Kitchen - is fully stocked with lots of supplies
