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.

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!

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.
