Such a beautiful, warm and cosy cabin. The weather was terrible but it was so nice to just sit in front of the fire and gaze out the window down in to the valley. Every need is catered for and it is such a cleverly designed eclectic cabin. The mountains have so much to offer and this cabin is a great choice. We’ll stay again. Thanks

It was a warm stay.
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.

Amazing & quiet getway
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.

Charming family accommodation
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.

Cute and cosy!
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!

Gray’s mountain escape
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!
