Wonderful stay

We recently spend two nights at Nellie's Cottage which was warm and cozy even though it was chilly outside. We awoke on Sunday morning to snow flakes falling which was special. The house is nicely decorated and has all you need for a wonderful weekend away in the Blue mountains.

Cannot recommend Nellie’s Cottage highly enough. Host Melissa has thought of everything, from a cosy fire and bottle of wine on arrival on a chilly mid-winter night to a generous breakfast hamper and DELICIOUS croissants. Even ice creams in the freezer. Tastefully decorated and with quality linens, amenities and kitchen appliances. Loved our stay.
