About this property

Fairy Dell - peaceful bush retreat

Enjoy a digital detox in peaceful bush surroundings. Modern two bedroom cottage with fully equipped kitchen and bathroom, combustion heater (firewood supplied) and air conditioning. Both bedrooms have queen beds with quality linen. There is a very comfortable sofa bed in the lounge. There are bush views from every window and a large deck to enjoy the serenity of the surroundings. You may be lucky to see visiting kangaroos, lyre birds and parrots.

There is no TV or WiFi at the property. An easy ten minute walk gets you to local cafes, train station and shops, and a short drive takes you to many Upper Mountains attractions. There are many local lookouts with breath-taking views and access to local bush walks. This is an ideal location to explore the Blue Mountains as well as further afield into Hartley and Lithgow.

Well mannered dogs are welcome to visit with their humans. Children welcome, although open stair case is not suitable for toddlers, or anyone with mobility issues.

Special rates: Midweek- stay three nights for the price of two. Stay seven nights for the price of six.
Please note that for one night bookings there will be an additional fee of $80 to cover the costs of our cleaner. We do not accept one night stays during school holidays.

Lovely spot, gorgeous fire, but could do with some more blankets or electric blankets as Mount Victoria gets freezing in Winter.

Cozy peaceful cottage

We’ve stayed at Fairy Dell on 3 other occasions and we’ll keep coming back. It’s cozy and quiet and good that it has no TV so we can really get away and spend quality time with our adult children. Appreciate the late checkout Zoe.

Cody out of the way cottage

It’s a lovely quiet location, the big balcony and fireplace were a highlight, and the upstairs loft bedrooms had plenty of headroom. Mt Victoria is even sleepier than I remember but lots of good café/restaurant options at Blackheath and Katoomba. Would be good if there was tea/sugar provided but that is just a minor thing. There is a fence around the cottage which is good if you’re staying with a dog. Zoe’s communication was excellent.

Peaceful and cozy retreat

My partner and I stayed for 3 nights with our dog and found the house to be a great central base to surrounding blue mountains attractions. Very peacefully set, well fitted out and comfortable. The balcony is lovely and we caught some glimpses of beautiful birdlife and so many butterflies! Thank you to the hosts for this well presented and comfortable stay.

Fairy Dell

The house is as advertised, very clean and in a quiet location with views of trees and plenty of birdlife. But its not suitable for people with mobility issues as the bedrooms are upstairs and bathroom down, in laundry area. The staircase is a bit steep, with no handrails on most of it which is a bit of a challenge at night. Also shower is in the bath, also tricky for some.
