Cosy home in spectacular location
The view is obviously what most people come for but the house itself is very impressive. So well appointed - everything has been thought of. Wifi is not the greatest (my zoom meeting kept dropping out) but why are you working?! Really warm and cosy. Instructions are comprehensive and hosts are very kind and helpful. We loved our stay.

Amazing views
We had a wonderful stay at this property. The views are unrivalled and the house was well equipped and the owners were quick to answer any questions we had. We were a group of 7 and fit comfortably, across the many spaces with the loft space best suited for children 6-12 age.

Fabulous house with amazing views
This was a wonderful spot to spend a few relaxing days, with astonishing views. Lovely to be able to cook looking out over the valley, and to sit on the balcony watching the sunset. The house is very comfortable, and has everything you could need. Lots of nooks and crannies, each with its own view. A really memorable stay.

Amazing views
Almost every room in GrandviewHaus has a fabulous view, even when the fog rolled in it was fascinating to just sit and watch. All the beds were very comfortable, and there were three different lounging areas to spread out. The kitchen was extremely well equipped. Our grandchildren loved the bush walks nearby, and even though the house appears to be right on the edge of the cliff, it is quite safe for the kids to play outside. The kids loved sleeping up in the bunks in the loft - it was a great adventure for them!

Perfect getaway
We came here with a group of 11 adults for Christmas in July, The house fit us all very comfortably, with the various areas for sitting, chatting and looking at the view. We cooked a full roast meal with turkey and pork, the oven and utensils on hand were great. The rooms are all quite large and cosy and the view is amazing! Peter was extremely helpful and understanding, with great communication throughout our stay without being intrusive :) Dont have one complaint! We hope to come back soon!

Fantastic Cosy Retreat with Wonderful Views
As a group of ten we were all blown away by the architectural design of this property. Within 5 mins of arriving we had well and truly immersed ourselves into the serenity of the surrounds and left the hustle and bustle of the city behind us. Peter was organised, prepared, informative, approachable and the best host we could ask for. We had been sent detailed info on directions, user guides etc prior to our visit. We had a breakage (part of the glass front to the log fire) which was accidental, but he handled the situation better than we could have anticipated and reassured us that these things happen. He was to hand for any queries and checked in to see if he could help each morning. We would love to return, the photos do not do the experience justice!

Magnificent property with a magnificent view
A perfect place to escape for a couple of days. A really interesting home architecturally - which complimented the awesome views into the Kanimbla Valley. A labour of love from the owner / architect / and welcoming party - Peter. The homely house contains everything you could possibly need - and some great sit and chat areas - all with views of course. Thank you !

Architects Gem
This house is a real gem. It occupies a magnificent location and Peter, the owner / architect / builder has created a place worthy of the setting. Beautifully considered it is a very comfortable house from which we enjoyed the full variety of weather the mountains delivered. Incredible sunset views and swirling rainy mists shrouding the plunging cliff line. Thank you Peter for sharing this place and we look forward to finding the opportunity to return.

We found Grandview Haus simply an incredible experience. Both the house and the views far exceeded our expectations. To spend 10 days relaxing in a house that was designed, built and owned by an architect was an absolute delight. We found Grandview Haus the ideal place from which to explore the magnificent Blue Mountains or to simply relax and soak up the tranquility. Thanks Peter for all your assistance and for giving us the opportunity to appreciate this beautiful part of Australia.
