    Was a cosy place to return to after a day out, with everything you needed to make it feel like home away from home

    Not what we didn’t like, but would be good to have blockout curtains in the bedrooms not only so you’re not woken up by the day light, but would also help with keeping the house warmer.

    Was definitely comfortable, had everything we needed to make for a relaxing time away. The fire was beautiful to come back to after it being so cold and wet outside.

    The second toilet and shower was accessible only from outside and access to this was not shaded (it was raining a bit during our stay)

    The quiet location and the elevated property with views of sunrise over the horizon! Only minutes drive to town centre.

    I would have liked steps that come off the driveway to have a railing support - but that is only because I have balance and mobility issues. The younger people in our group did not find the steps difficult.

    Clean, comfortable and quiet.

    The kids loved exploring the backyard/nature reserve and collecting sticks for the fireplace. They also loved playing with the box of toys in the bedroom. Definitely recommend this place to others, only a short drive to Katoomba Town Centre.

    Even though advertised, there was no garden or outside space we could use. The outside space was too steep and overgrown. So as a rural retreat it missed the spot a bit... in hindsight we would have chosen something more conveniently located in town if we werent going to get the outside space. Wifi didnt work at all.

    House was clean and well furnished with good facilities. Lots of nice touches such as tea and coffee and a great open plan kitchen/ social area. Host was responsive and flexible with access on arrival day.

    I particularly choose this property on account of the fire, as that is my ideal mountain get away, so was extremely disappointed- on arrival there was only two large logs, several fire starters, NO kindling and a bit of newspaper, totally unable to start fire. All available kindling on the property was wet. Then email sent to me on the day of entry stated I was to buy firewood! Note - all other similar places have fireplace set up ready to go and a good supply of wood and means of getting rid of ash, that needs to be done daily. Not sure how I was supposed to split the wood - provide my own axe?? Entry stairs (+20) are irregular and slippery, suggest leave lights on for people coming in on their first day. Driveway is dark and hard to negotiate at night- need lights at entry to driveway. No coverings on windows, either bare windows or sheer curtains (MBed), so quite cold. Curtain and electrical cords in MBed a trip hazard. The property is clean and seems to have been recently modernised and nicely decorated, well appointed kitchen.

    clean and fresh
