A very enjoyable stay .House was terrific .Kitchen was well stocked with cutlery, cooking utensils , glassware ,pots pans etc .Beds were comfy lovely grounds . Our only negative was a step at the back door area was quite uneven and caused our grandaughter to slip ,not once but twice .She had a sore rib area from falling .Step needs to be replaced

Thank you, Yvonne, for your stay and feedback, I have brought the back step to the maintenance teams' attention
This is an outstanding property that has retained its practical appeal though over 100 years old. The important areas, especially the kitchen, bathrooms and heating have been updated and the classic features well maintained.
This great 107 year old home was fantastic in all regards. From The modern kitchen with all the items necessary for a relaxing stay. Heating was superb, as were the grounds and gardens. Highly recommend this home for a stay regards Phil
Our friends were visiting from far and wide, and we wanted to have a place where we could catch up, play board games, and cook. We really enjoyed the common spaces, fireplace, and large kitchen to cook for the weekend. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking.
The only challenge was trying to optimise heating during the night as it was varying temperatures in each room.
I would recommend providing scrubbers for cleaning as we sometimes struggled to clean some of the larger pots and pans as not all of them fit in the dishwasher.
Great location and close to amenities. We were 5-10mins away from tennis, and bushwalking!
Beautiful house with plenty of room. In great condition and very clean. House had most things that were needed. Gorgeous deck on side of house. Huge! Lovely gardens and property. Our only disappointment was the beds. They were terrible and we needed up dragging our mattress onto the floor to get a better sleep.
All in all, a great property and lots of space.
As a 3 generation family who have stayed in many Blue Mountain homes this one has ticked all the required bases really well. A large well equipped kitchen with a huge island bench made for easy breakfasts. A TV room where the kids could hang out while adults enjoyed quiet chats. The enormous deck has a ?12 seat table with a great BBQ. 3 bathrooms made life easy in the mornings It was 48 Degrees when we arrived but the house was amazingly cool. And all beds were very comfortable. Prompt communication from Ali was great. Will be looking to book again.
We enjoyed the short stay immensely and the house was just as it was described, check in and check out were easy and generous and the house has plenty of old world charm with modern amenities.
Lovely house for a big family weekend getaway. Great kitchen for entertaining beautiful log fire.
Easy check in, comfortable drive from Sydney. Well equipped kitchen, central heating worked well. Log fire kept the dinning room warm all night. We had a lovely relaxing family weekend away, thanks.
The property is massive with a surrounding garden and plenty of room to relax. Had a group of 11 adults, and all had plenty of space. Impressive kitchen, and large deck.
Owner responded quickly to questions we had!
It is an old house, but it is extremely well-kept and very comfortable for everyone!

Wonderfully Equipped & Spacious House
My large group of friends had a great stay at Darjeeling.
It's convenient for the shops and Leura and very well equipped, with a great covered outdoor table for eating and socialising.

Fantastic atmosphere, garden, furnishings and facilities
We loved Darjeeling House but as tea drinkers were disappointed not to have a teapot and tea cosy. We are not coffee pod users so a plunger or stove top coffee maker would have been appreciated, as would some woollen throws for the lounges to let us snuggle up by the fire or to watch TV. We would have enjoyed a few good quality coffee table or reference books about the Blue Mountains - the indigenous people, white explorers and settlement, flora and fauna etc. Having said that, we will definitely come again and recommend it to our friends.

A lovely home for a family weekend
The house was very comfortable and served our purposes well. We were 7 adults and 4 teenagers and there was more than enough space for us all to do what we wanted. A real highlights was breakfast on the terrace for 11 and we very much appreciated how well the kitchen was kitted out so that meal preparation was easy and fun.
Some feedback though to make it better for future guests : There were not enough beds made up for our party, nor towels put out. Fortunately we had taken some of our own pillows, sleeping bags and towels so it did not effect our stay. Also, a french coffee press would be sensible as for a short stay having to buy very specific coffee pods is a pain. We used and cleaned the bbq and it would have been a lot easier if there was more appropriate cleaning materials. None of this spoilt our stay - we had a comfortable and good time. Thank you!
