The was a memorable stay, in all the best ways.

The Guest House was absolutely immaculate and everything we’d anticipated! Whilst heritage and olde worlde, there was nothing rundown or worn about the place. Brilliant and comfortable common/living spaces and a sumptuous and relaxing suite. Cannot recommend highly enough!

The guest house was lovely, we were given a rundown on the history of the house and the breakfast was excellent.

The historic 'feel' of the house, and the way the proprietors have endeavoured to maximise that.

Our room was lovely. It creaked a bit in the winter, windy weather. However it was clean and very comfortable. It was decorated very tastefully. Breakfast was good and the warm croissant was delicious. Having a self serve nightcap of complimentary port was also thoughtfully provided in the reading, games room.

gorgeous hotel, beautiful boutique manor house vibes. Lovely staff, very helpful, great continental breakfast. Close to the bus stop-- we used that to whip around Katoomba instead of walking the 15mins to top of the main street.

Quite an intriguing property. It was definitely my style and I found myself day dreaming about living there. Well kept given the age of the property and it's history made it even more exciting. The breakfast was a lovely bonus. Staff were warm and welcoming. Even the cockatoo came to welcome me. Oh, and the location! Minutes away from the three sisters but the most beautiful thing for me was the fog... Oh, how hauntingly beautiful it wrapped around the property. I look forward to my return.

Most romantic weekend

This was our second visit in a few month. It’s honestly the best place to stay in the Blue Mountains. The rooms are so warm and cosy, yet incredibly clean at the same time. The staff are wonderful and breakfast was a pleasure each day. My wife was extra excited that there were electric blankets on the beds. Thank you for another great weekend.
