About this property

Beautiful Blue Mountains Garden Flat

The clean, peaceful and cosy self-contained flat in north Katoomba backs onto bushland and is a private space surrounded by beautiful gardens on the lower floor of the main house. There is a kitchenette, shower, toilet and bathroom sink in one room, the main room has bed, dining area, sitting area, TV and fireplace, and another small room can be used as a store room. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, and nature-lovers. Spectacular Minnehaha Falls reservation is just down the road.
The space
Ideally you would need a car for your visit, and we are about 7 minutes drive from Katoomba town centre. The 697 bus runs from there to here, and a taxi from the station costs about $15, but I can also pick you up and drop you off whenever possible.
Set in beautiful grounds, the flat has views from the terraced garden into the bush, and has its own entrance off a paved flower garden. It also has a rear entrance onto a private courtyard with a small deck and seating.
In summer the flat stays nice and cool on hot days. However we do get a real winter and it can get quite cold here in the mountains, so always come prepared with warm clothing! The flat is cosy, with heating, and the bed has an electric blanket .
There is a large TV (which does have a red line through the screen, but this is not very noticeable after a while) and there is wireless internet if you bring a laptop. No smoking indoors, but you are welcome to smoke outside using the ash tray provided.
There is also a small single sofa bed for an extra guest if needed. N.B. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IN ADVANCE IF YOU NEED THIS MADE UP. Extra guests after 2 are charged $50 per night and I also charge this if just 2 guests, and 1 needs the sofa bed.
Please note, the flat is not recommended for young children.
Please also note there is NO HOT TUB (as detailed above)

Guest access
There are several sets of steps to get to the flat (generally 3-4 steps in each flight). Access around the side of the main house , and is lit after dark. However you may also need the torch on your phone, or the torch provided for you in the flat.The steps down to the fire-pit on the bottom terrace are also lit.

Other things to note
There are teas and coffee, long-life milk, cereal, spreads, and bread in freezer.

Wonderful, comfortable property
The garden flat had everything I could have needed. Even though the weather was cold, the heater, throws and electric blankets made it incredibly cosy. Edwina was very helpful with any queries I had. And the lovely hot shower was wonderful after a long day hiking!

ugh - so so good!!!
perfection - not perfect, but perfectly what i was hoping for! i wanted a humble affordable solo getaway, easy to get to (taxi, close to station & grocery) somewhere cozy with plenty of places to sit and relax, cozy ambience indoors, close access to trail walks, peaceful nature vibes and the amenities i need (cooking, showering, warmth) you will love this if: - you want a peaceful getaway - you love cozy! fireplace, open plan studio, comfy bed, electric blanket - garden vibes! views out every window/door, multiple places to sit in the beautiful and charmingly unkempt multi-tier garden (my fave type) - birbs - tranquility, birb songs, mountain air, bush views, garden foliage, lil buzzing bees, sound of the breeze in the trees, away from busyness - many different flora and fauna - tea and cake out in the garden - dinner outside while watching the bush - shortest walk ever to a beautiful trail walk with multiple views, streams, and minnehaha falls - a host who is extremely helpful with questions and also leaves you be to enjoy your solitude - strolls around the chill neighbourhood, and a true local vibes cafe close by - picnics at the reserve, there’s swings, tables, and lots of hilarious and cute birbs … look, i could go on listing, but if you are looking for a serene, tranquil, humble, very cozy lil getaway, that is affordable on a budget: this. is. the. place. i will be back asap. either in summer so i can swim at the falls, or in autumn so i can enjoy the falling leaves

Nice garden flat cold in winter
Nice flat but very cold in mid-winter. The heaters were only on or off so we had to leave one on all night it was so cold.

Great Stay
Stay was nice and cozy, good for a quick getaway. Only thing I wish was posted on the listing was that the room is underneath the house and you have to go through the side of the house to access it. Other than that it was a great stay!

Our host was very welcoming and the accommodation was very nice, our only problem was the heating it was very cold and the electric heater was not sufficient to heat the room we had to have the little fan heater on to warm up the room, otherwise we would have given it 5 stars
