Lovely cosy property full of beautiful period features.

Our stay in the Blue Mountains was made all the better by the house being so charming. It had all the facilities we needed for a few chilly nights sightseeing - the heating was amazing, the beds comfy and I just can’t say enough how much I loved all the period features. Marilla had left fresh flowers, wine and chocolates for our arrival, along with a lovely welcome note. I would certainly recommend this place!

Nostalgic house

Wonderful stay at this character filled house which is very spacious with plenty of zones to escape to. Enjoyed sitting on the front balcony amongst blossom trees and lunch in the back garden and dinners in the former ‘ballroom’ lounge room. Sent us back to timeless days from the roaring twenties

Perfect Getaway

After Covid delays we were finally able to have our girls’ getaway and it was wonderful. The house was just what we needed. Lots of room, clean, comfortable and well equipped. Marilla has been an excellent host throughout the whole process of booking and rescheduling but it was the little touches like fresh flowers from the garden in each room and a little welcome gift that made it just a bit more special. I would definitely recommend this property to others and we are already looking forward to our next stay here.

Old world charm in lovely Leura

We had a wonderful stay at Holmcroft. We're a family of 4 (2 adults, 2 young kids) and it was our first stay in the mountains. Leura does not disappoint and Holmcroft was the perfect place to stay - located super close to shops, station, and bushwalks, beautifully presented old-world charm but with all the modern requirements to stay in (fantastic kitchen, 2 sitting rooms, a spa bath!). We slept well during our stay. We were never cold - heated blankets and great heating throughout (both gas and wood fire places!). We loved it as a base to wander through Leura and Katoomba. Our communications with Marilla were fantastic - she was so helpful and responsive. We are looking forward to returning at some stage soon! Thanks Marilla!!

A beautiful Cottage

We LOVED Holmcroft in Leura. So close to Leura Village. The house was very well maintained, clean and we loved the Historic Architecture. Bedrooms were large and having two general areas with children was fabulous.The host couldn't have been more helpful and there was a lovely Welcome gift to greet us when we arrived.I would have no hesitation in recommending this property to others.

Beautiful house

We all loved this beautifully restored heritage house. Location was great, able to walk to Leura village. Heating was great as it was a very cold week. Beds good and everything we needed in the kitchen. Bottle of wine left for us was a nice touch as I celebrated my 80th birthday with my family. House was decorated with lovely camellias from the garden. Nice to talk to you Marilla. We had a very happy week.

Leura family weekend

Holmcroft was the perfect accomodation for a family gathering. Half way between family in city and country. Marilla was the perfect host with wine, chocolates and flowers provided on arrival. We could leave the cars and walk all around Leura. Enough room for the family to spread out with 2 large living areas. Very comfortable beds and the whole house was very clean. Communication was excellent and Marilla was happy to let us checkout a little later, giving more time for family catchups. Thanks so much, we will definitely be booking again.

Charming Australian Family Gathering

This delightful, well-equipped, conveniently located, historic Australian home provided the perfect setting for a family reunion. Marilla is an A+++ host, graciously accommodating late changes to our plans, and facilitating a joyous gathering spot for us to cook and dine and be together, while enjoying all the Blue Mountains region offers. Especially loved the historic and traditional architectural elements this home offers, and how well equipped it is. Thanks Marilla for sharing your charming home with us.

What makes this property unique

"Holmcroft" is full of stunning character features. When you walk into "Holmcroft" you will be amazed by the pressed metal ceilings and walls which have all been retained in meticulous detail. Detail best describes the beauty of "Holmcroft". It is a home which has been lovingly restored. As you sit in one of the lounge rooms looking out onto the camellias and wisteria you will notice they are gently pressing against the original stained glass windows. Set in an established garden it is a special place full of ambience and charm. An easy level stroll to Leura village, train station and many scenic sights.
