Taken from the French term châtelaine (Lady of the chateau), a majestic marvel eloquently named by the owner and historic restorer, Lorraine Allanson. Being the fifth masterpiece in the Mountain Whispers MW Collection of boutique properties located here in the world heritage Blue Mountains, Lorraine certainly feels that those who come to experience Chatelaine will be mesmerized by her beauty.
Defined by its bespoke garden design, breathtaking panoramic views of the Jamison Valley on one side and the Megalong Valley on the other, Chatelaine sits perched on 4,774sqm of undulating lawns and superbly manicured gardens. With an emphasis on sophistication and showcasing mother nature’s beauty in its entirety, Chatelaine ranks highly among those seeking to truly escape the hustle and bustle and simply be one with nature.
Allow yourself to step back in time to the flamboyant Art Deco era whilst being dazzled by the Hollywood Regency décor. Gaze into the eyes of the Hollywood stars of days gone by as you make your way to the billiard table, which takes pride of place, beckoning you to participate in a game of billiards or pool. Sit by the fire with your glass of complimentary port or wine or perhaps champagne on the deck is more your drink of the afternoon and experience for yourself what it feels like to be lady or lord of the chateau, as you gaze over your estate. Welcome to Chatelaine, a fully self-contained, private 5-star escape, ready and waiting to transport you to a state of calm.

A trip back in time, we were welcomed by the nature of birds upon arrival. House is fully equipped even with a fireplace which proved of great value during the colder climate. A short drive to the shops is also very convenient. Fit for purpose, I would recommend this for a comfortable stay!

Thank you for your review of Chatelaine, Peter. Happy New Year. I sincerely hope to welcome you back once more. Until then, take care, Lorraine 😊
Chatelaine is an amazing property that exceeded all of our expectations from the moment we stepped through the "beautiful" front door! The attention to detail was incredible - including the beautiful authentic furnishings and decor, the superb quality linen, the extremely generous breakfast provisions, wine, chocolates and port, the beautiful china, glassware and crystal - and of course the open fire and absolutely stunning views! The property was the perfect place for my husband, our two daughters and I to spend some much needed relaxing family time. We all thoroughly enjoyed the pool table and the open fire - with several books read by the fire during our stay! The level of cleanliness was also beyond anything we have experienced in other accommodations. We loved exploring the house and enjoyed all of the lovely art deco touches - the authenticity was amazing. We will definitely be back - and next time we will already know what a treat we are in for - a superb property that was warm, welcoming and made us all feel so at home.

Spacious, peaceful stay
Chatelaine is a wonderful house, spacious and comfortable. We were welcomed with wine and ample breakfast supplies and port to enjoy by the fire. The view out over the valley below Katoomba is breathtaking; the home warm and comfortable. Plenty of space for our family of five and Lorraine was incredibly welcoming and helpful. Highly recommended.
