Family weekend away

Lovely, cosy stay for a weekend getaway and only a short drive into the centre of Katoomba. The accommodation had good facilities and heating and was very peaceful overlooking the blue mountains. One of the highlights was the beautiful spa bath!

Stayed three nights in March 2026 so no coziness required - no AC or fire used. The property is a bit shabby - needs an update. There is an inbuilt bed which were around in the 70s (I had one in Nelson Bay) - pillows are sweat-stained and bedding is dated. Only good for a couple and a couple of kids as all in the same room and the window mattresses are not comfortable. It needs a good clean - kitchen hotplate needs replacing as rusty. Most foodstuffs out of date eg 2018. No coffee maker - basic inclusion in 2026! Floors are vinyl not wood. Fridge was turned up to the highest so everything froze, microwave had food bits in it. Dust and moths around the upstairs window. Screen door fell off, windows very difficult to open. Front garden needs attention - not at all welcoming. Back garden area could be improved - both green areas neglected. Very expensive for what it is and the need to pay for linen if can't bring own is a bit too much when paying such a high daily rate. Overall it appears to be a dated, basic space that purports to be a retreat but that means the view is nice and not much else. I did contact the person in the printed info at the accom but never answered. If it's architect-designed, it would have been in the 70s but I doubt that - probably just a builder. Overpriced and shabby. Better places to stay in the Mountains. Go elsewhere.
Obviously hasn't been cleaned.
Old and rusty.

I have to admit that I made this booking for a spa with a view but the spa sits too low to see the view. Still a very comfortable place and the view from the small balcony are stunning!

fantastic views, intimate setting

This was a great place to stay for a couple nights while hiking the Blue Mountains. The spaces are compact but intimate and well-arranged. All windows overlook gorgeous views. We've a few little bits of criticism: the overall feeling esp. in bathroom and lower level bedroom that it wasn't super clean, many stains on the cover of the seating area under the downstairs windows, and the toilet area didn't feel so clean. Secondly, the WiFi was rather spotty, so we had to rely on our cellular service much of the time. Thirdly, the BBQ on the porch, which we were looking forward to, is in fact what we would call a hot plate, a surface with gas heat underneath -- we used it since we brought meat to cook, but I wouldn't call it a BBQ. Still we had a great time on this trip and the convenience of the location, loveliness of views and porch were great. Also, Angela was very communicative, which we appreciated. Thank you.

Amazing surprise bday weekend !!!

The property was so cozy and just perfect. The views were stunning, the fireplace was so nice and warmed the whole house comfortably. The small touches were nice that the owners provide around the place , like flowers, ornaments, pictures, little bath salts / candles in the spa area . Coffee / tea and all basic kitchen products to cook with and little stove / oven to make some yummy dinners and breakfast. I will definitely be back very soon and loved experience Katoomba and visiting the 3 sisters and the local pubs/ cafes.

Views of the mountains

The property is in a quiet location with great views of the mountains. Layout is great and just the right size for two people. The off-street parking is tight but not an issue as it has a good turning bay. It's a personal preference but the smell of incense in the building was overwhelming - even in the cutlery drawer. The bathroom shower needed a better clean.
