The cottage has everything you need for a perfect getaway. Heating in all rooms for those cool mountain nights and a kitchen that has been thought out and caters for all needs. A great stay and a great host with easy communication. Would definitely stay again, and the location perfect walking distance to all the tourist spots.

We loved staying at this property. It is a charming home which was particularly comfortable and had good space. The hosts were friendly and efficient and have thoughtfully appointed the property with everything guests need. We visited in winter so particularly appreciated the generous availability of heaters (especially the gas fireplace, which was fabulous) and the beds were exceptionally comfortable. Having two bathrooms was an added bonus. The backyard is very pleasant with tall hedges providing ample privacy. Just a lovely place to be and perfectly located - a short walk to Echo Point in one direction or the centre of Katoomba in the other, with a popular coffee shop just a few hundred metres away. Very highly recommended.

A very cute and welcoming cottage was waiting for us with fire place on, welcoming lights in all the room, a bottle of wine and a chocolate bar for us. I felt Ted the owner cared for his guests and wanted us to enjoy his place. Well, we did!The 4 bedrooms have very comfortable beds all with electric blankets. The kitchen is very well equipped for who wants to cook. This place is very generously stocked with every thing. It is clean and quiet.The location is great, just a stroll to shops, restaurants and the 3 sisters.Because we had a 16 months old toddler, we loved all the doors to restrict entry. Our little dog Coco loved the garden and chasing the ball.Ted, many thanks for having us in your lovely cottage. We will return.
