We really enjoyed our time in Blue mountain. The place is close to the market. The place is warm especially during night time as there was no fly screen window we can open. Otherwise it was a lovely stay.
We loved this little hide away. It had so much character and was a lovely place to retreat to at the end ofa hike. Great location. Has everything you need, responsive and friendly host. Great memories made.
The cabin was nestled next to a very peaceful valley with plenty of bird song. We enjoyed our getway away from the sound of traffic.
Nice and close to the shops as well.
Very well stocked with plenty of kitchen utensils and firewood.
The property was walking distance to town and a short drive to Echo Point and other bush walking trails. The cabin had plenty of room for my 8 and 11 yr old. They loved the loft bedroom! It was also nice and warm,which is needed after being out in the cold all day. We only set the fire twice.
Wayne’s place is well appointed, clean and in a great location. Check in was super easy and we enjoyed the local guides to help find some walking tracks. Thanks for a great stay!
We loved staying at this place and will return next year again.
We left some of our items at the property and our host was so helpful and understanding.
We enjoyed very much
Loved the Cabin..Plenty of space & everything you need.
The fireplace was very good, kept us nice and warm.
Lovely little sitting place out on the Verandah to watch the sun go down with a drink..
Comfortable beds..
Would stay again for sure.
Great location, quiet and it had everything we needed. The kids loved the fireplace which kept us warm on the chilly winter nights. It was also just a short walk to the town centre. Loved the bakeries (Hominy and Black Cockatoo) for special breakfast treats. We also bush walked every day and it was a short drive to wonderful walks with the kids. Thank you for a wonderful stay, highly recommended!
Perfect cottage for family of four and base to see the beautiful Blue Mountains. Weather was kind and cottage was toasty warm with combo of fire place and oil heaters for heating.
The cottage felt a little looked over with properties in front. A short power walk up the hill to shops and town centre made for easy options on food and provisions.
Thanks Wayne!
I can’t give more than 5 starts but if I could I would. My partner and a girlfriend stayed for two nights for winter magic and the location was perfect, the cabin was beautiful. Lovely decor, great amenities, face wipes and razors provided were an outstanding touch. The fire place was a beautiful, and highly functioning antique. This cabin was delightful, for 3 of us the bathroom and shower was just what the doctor ordered, what a shower! Again, we had everything we needed and passed out so early because this cabin seduced us to an early bed time. Fantastic touches. Can’t rave anymore about this place. Thank you 5 out of 5
Our family of 4 had a fantastic 2 nights here. Plenty of firewood to keep the place warm, and nice and close to everything. Would definitely stay here again!
