Quaint little cottage within walking distance of main town

Cute cottage. Tastefully decorated with comfortable beds and all the required amenities. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and daily walks into town and surrounding areas. The garden's are well maintained, providing a sanctuary to enjoy a morning cuppa or evening wine.

My Mum and I thought the cottage was lovely. We enjoyed sitting in front of the fire in the evening. The garden was very pretty and the area quiet and convenient to everything. We didn’t want to leave.

Cosy, perfect location and exactly what we wanted!

Our family needed a easy, comfortable and relaxing weekend away. This house certainly offered us this plus much more. It was super central, perfect amount of space and ideal for our 15 month old who loved exploring the garden. It couldn't have been more ideal with a pond walking distance away for us to feed the ducks. Will certainly be recommending this house to friends and family.

Charming and oh so comfortable!

Charming property close to cafes, supermarkets and transport. So comfortable... especially sitting in front of the fireplace after a day of exploring all that Katoomba has to offer. We put on a movie from the DVD library but fell asleep as we succumbed to the warmth from the fireplace and the coziness of the couch!

A Great Place to Stay.

We stayed in the middle of winter. (It snowed!!) It was so great to come home and turn on the fireplace. It was so warm, as was central heating. The fireplace warmed the house. The place is beautifully renovated, lovely touches inside. Had everything. We parked the car and walked everywhere from here. The owners always replied immediately. A great place to stay.

Loved our stay

We loved the 1930s style of living ...very cosy and quaint. the kitchen was beautifully stocked with cutlery,glasses of types and purposes.We also loved the immaculate condition of the kitchen and the spectacular stove. Thankyou for having sufficient kitchen cleaning products and powder for the washing machine. The bedrooms and beds were in great and comfortable condition. We loved the fireplace and heating on such a cold weekend. Thankyou for taking pride in your quaint home... it was certainly a step back in time for us.

A gorgeous comfortable, renovated and styled cottage close to the centre of town with all mod cons. Clean and well appointed. Hosts were easily accessible if required. Easy walking distance to the Main Street for eating, shopping and access to the Blue Mountains - if you struggle walking up hills and stairs you might need a car to get around.

Cozy and Convenient

Spent two nights at this charming home located just a couple blocks from the main shopping area. Quick access to multiple bush walks throughout the area and a quick drive to the Three Sisters overlook. House was very clean and cozy with thoughtful touches such as board games and movies for a family night after a day of hiking. Would absolutely book again.
