Overall a very good experience. Central heating and electric bankers very handy as well as two full bathrooms. Big problem with combustion fire place. There is no seal on the door, could smell smoke in the living room, so quite dangerous.

Nice stay in Katoomba!
Our family was only able to stay one night in this adorable little house, which was in a cute neighborhood. The house was fairly easy to find and was clean, although a bit sparse (I like things on the homey side). It was very cold when we arrived, but after turning on the heating it warmed up enough. The house is fairly close to hiking and restaurants, but there are a lot of hills so just keep that in mind.

Sunshine Cottage stay
Overall the cottage was good. There was dirty laundry from previous visitors on the front verandah until the day after we checked in. We thought there was not enough toilet paper supplied for the length of our booking and needed to buy more. The large back deck was great. The location of the cottage was really good too. Thank you.

small cottage house
overall a pleasant cottage, great location although up a very steep hill to get to Main Street shops and restaurants. Nice walk to 3 sisters, again hilly but you are in the blue mountains. Negative is main bathroom doesn't have any heating, bedrooms are really small and one has no wardrobe. There was only 4 adults. We would stay again. Thank you

Great location
I rate this property highly but it’s in no way luxurious so don’t be fooled by the rating. The property was very clean inside and well equipped. Two bedrooms weren’t huge with no wardrobes. The a/c fan is extremely noisy. Sounds like a bike idling. Furnishings are quite sparse but adequate. Entry was quite dirty with bags of linen left all weekend for pickup. The garden needs a really good trim as it’s quite dark in the house. Lawn needed a mow.
In saying all that, I would still stay again. Positives were many. Great comfortable beds with lovely linen and electric blankets. Good showers with strong hot water. Big deck and bbq which we didn’t use though. Books, games and everything else you need for a comfortable stay. Great position and quite even though it’s a main road.
It’s a good, small family home

Clean and tidy - but noisy air con
Clean and tidy Kitchen and the chocolate biscuits were a nice touch.
The futon style lounges were really uncomfortable to sit on but are probably good little beds for kids
The heating was so noisy it sounded like a helicopter was landing. The sensor lights didn’t come on and I nearly fell done the stairs coming home in the evening - and no I wasn’t drunk!

Katoomba stay
Great location. Comfortable house, although two of the bedrooms were smallish, our friends found the bed quite small for a double. There is a fabulous outdoor decked area, which we didn't take advantage of because of inclement weather and a big yard suitable for kids and dogs running around. The ensuite toilet seat needs replacing as it would move when sat on (a bit scary)! We could not find bins on the property to place our rubbish in so took our recycling off the property. Overall it was a good stay....

Location Location Location!
This house was lovely and clean and very well set up, but the best thing was the location. 1.3km from Scenic world and probably about 1km to the Main Street of Katoomba. We were able to walk everywhere. The neighbourhood was quiet.
