Summary: Close to Govetts Leap and Evans heads and as we were both recovering we were able to find stunning walks that were manageable. Found a lovely coffee hideout at Blackheath. We enjoyed the high ceiling in the lounge and low in kitchen and especially the heated floor in bathroom. It was such a cosy respite.

Summary: It was Cosy with the log fire and oil heaters if needed. Kitchen was great and the bathroom was lovely with its underfloor heating. Didn’t get the chance to use the stand alone bath… will next time. It was lovely to be able to stay in a historic stone cottage with so much history.

Summary: What a wonderful little getaway this was! My husband and I adored this little cottage and had a beautiful and peaceful stay. While you are right on the tracks this may be annoying to some, but we got excited each time a train came through and ran like children to the window! The bathroom was wonderful the clawfoot tub has my heart, and the underfloor heating was a life saver! We are so happy to of gotten to stay in this quant and beautiful building

Summary: The cottage was much as described. The garden was lovely with a hedge of blooming roses. Wendy was very responsive and helpful.

Summary: Lovely old, historic property with beautiful garden. Be aware of the trains being close, we loved it! Central to so much in the mountains and beyond and 5minute walk to all the Hydro Majestic has to offer. Wendy was helpful and easy to communicate with along with thinking of little touches like leaving heaters on for our arrival. Especially loved the fire, bath and no tv!

Summary: The Gatehouse was one of the highlights of our trip to the Blue Mountains. It was an absolute privilege to be able to step back in time, whilst enjoying the comforts of modern day living. The garden is beautiful and the Gatehouse is simply stunning inside and out. It was cosy, inviting and the decor just added to the authenticity. The luxurious bath was an unexpected treat after a day of exploring. We couldn't have asked for a more convenient location - close to a bustling town center with interesting little shops and a variety of dining options, as well as scenic activities. Wendy is the perfect host. She prepared the Gatehouse beautifully for our stay. She was considerate enough to put heaters on and had firewood ready for us. Everything you could possibly need / want for a comfortable stay has been provided. The Gatehouse has to be experienced to be believed and we hope to return in future.

Summary: Quaint and effort made to blend the authentic with the modern. Trains as neighbours were fun although some may describe it otherwise. The place was quite dusty. Plenty of heaters. Some local knowledge, info, brochures etc could be helpful. Info re the house would be both interesting and helpful. Couldn’t get front door opened. Appreciated amount of wood left as it was rainy and foggy whole time we were there. Arrival instructions that include dirt road and no through road sign would be helpful. So much potential. We did though enjoy our short stay.
