Nice stay

A last minute booking to work on a property we own in the area. Couldn’t have been better. Easy to check in, no fuss, super clean and lovely bedding. Really nicely decorated and in a quiet pocket of Katoomba. Would happily stay again and think we probably will! Thanks to the hosts.

Repeat visitor

It's always a delight to stay at the Blue Cottage. We've been so many times it feels like a 2nd home. I had an accident while I was holidaying, end ended up in hospital until 4am, but the host was so lovely and responded to my text immediately to confirm the cottage was available to stay another night. It was a relief to know I could relax, and the extended stay has made me want to stay longer next time too!

Its was ok

Stayz says check in at 2pm. We got there at 2pm to find a few gardeners and cleaning staff preparing the property. I messaged the owner and he said that's incorrect, its 3pm but wouldn't let us check out late in compensation. The ad says bedroom 1 has a double and double futon but there was no double futon at all - owner offered a rollaway bed for an extra fee. The couch was a bit too dirty (old stains), no fire wood provided because it's not winter? For over 500 a night we should've at been allowed to leave later

Convenient, Cozy, and Thoughtfully Equipped Stay

We had a wonderful stay! The property is conveniently located near Echo Point and the town, making it an ideal base for exploring the area. The host thoughtfully provided firewood and kindling, which came in handy on a rainy and chilly summer evening. The space is perfectly suited for four guests, with comfortable furnishings and a dining table designed for that capacity. We appreciated the charming collection of art and furniture, and the small office desk was a bonus for remote work.

Mountain run

My partner and I spent a wonderful weekend at the cottage. I ran the UTMB 22km trail run on the Friday and spent the remainder of the weekend relaxing in the cottage and enjoying the local area. The cottage is extremely comfortable and our chocolate Labrador enjoyed it immensely as well.

I booked a 3 night winter getaway with my 16yo daughter, her friend and our dog. The girls were instantly smitten with the cottage and it's setting and had given it 5 star rating by the end of the trip! Gorgeous, character-filled home in a peaceful and convenient location. Would definitely stay again.

This was my 2nd time staying here. It’s such a beautiful cottage. The furniture and decor are gorgeous, and it’s such a relaxing place to stay. The rooms are large, and there’s a huge sofa to relax. Having 2 bathrooms is great too. There are wonderful plants filling the huge backyard, many of which I’ve never seen before. I highly recommend staying at the Tranquil Blue Cottage.

"Blue Cottage" close to Echo Point

We loved staying at Blue Cottage - close to everything (notably great walks, the 3 Sisters, lookouts, the sky cable car and many great fine dining restaurants) but also a lovely quiet neighbourhood. Wayne and Wendy have the cottage equipped with everything needed. We would readily stay there again. Highly recommended!

It was very bad

There is an extra charge for those with animals when renting But when we got home, there was dog hair everywhere. The house was said to be for 5 people, but they made one bed on the floor, it was very bad. And they took as much money from us as from the other bed. Consider these before renting.

Perfect winter getaway

Had a wonderful stay with my partner and our dog . House was well equipped and clean upon arrival. Generous light coming through during the day and heavy curtains were appreciated for those cold evenings. We couldn’t fault the property - fully fenced property perfect for those dogs that like to escape, plenty of heating available (fireplace, floor vents in all rooms that allow central heating to quickly heat the home), beds and pillows comfortable, nespresso machine available, kitchen fit our with more than enough utensils, glasses and crockery and our favourite, a beautiful porch that gets flooded with sun !! Highly recommend for a weekend away.

A cosy place you won’t want to leave

I holiday at this cottage twice a year, and it’s always outstanding. In summer there’s outdoor seating and a large umbrella on the deck, and a huge backyard with so many beautiful flowers I’ve never seen living in Sydney. In Autumn, there’s nothing better than making dinner in the full size kitchen, then curling up on the soft couch, draped in one of the blankets available at the cottage, and watching the fire. And the autumn leaves at the cottage, and all over the Blue Mountains are breathtaking! The location is very convenient - the main street of Katoomba is only a few minutes away, and it takes no time to get to Leura. Despite that, the street is so quiet. Other than the birds, there’s wonderful silence. Wendy and Wayne are lovely, and very responsive to contact. I can’t recommend this cottage highly enough.

Blue Cottage

The overall standard was ok but needs some tweaking. The owner was very responsive and responded to the lack of basic essentials at the property. The house needs a really good clean. Some things as have been noted by me and given to the owner. drain smell in the bathroom,night light on entry and bathroom has a small step that could be dangerous for an old person. garden needed cutting ect and some items not there, kitchen towel, coffee,tea selection milk, as I have said I paid a 5 Star price expecting a 5 star accommodation. I'm sure this will be sorted.

Lovely cottage only suitable for 4 guests

Our time spent at the Blue Cottage started disappointing. The online listing said suitable for 5 guests- 2 bedrooms - one with a queen bed, and the other with a queen bed and a sofa bed. There was not a sofa bed, nor a towel or bedding for the 5th person. I contacted Wendy about extra towel and bedding and was told that 'extra bedding is usually requested by guests'. Her husband dropped off extra bedding and a towel late that evening, for which there was no bed to use the bedding on. I booked a cottage for 5 people, and it was listed as suitable for 5 people. We were also asked if we could meet with the NBN crew who were doing maintenance during our stay. They needed someone to meet them anytime between 8-12. Upon the NBN mans arrival, he told me I would need to be present for about. I told him I was unwilling to do that. It turned out that I was unable to meet him regardless as I was not able to give permission as I was not the property owner. The owners then met the NBN man at the property. Whilst the start of our stay was disappointing, the overall experience was positive.

Owners quote “We didn’t have the manpower to do a proper cleaning job”

The owners promote their deep cleaning standards “sterilising all surface, light switches” etc. When bringing up concerns with the owner after noticing every wine glass in the cupboard was smudged with finger marks, a used tissue found beside the bed they replied saying “We didn't have enough manpower during the public holiday to do a proper cleaning job in between 2 groups of guests” after I pointed out what they’d just admitted they then back tracked and proceeded to say that after talking to their “cleaners” they can’t be sure that it wasn’t from our stay… two of us, smudging 10-15 glasses?? Early on in our stay we noticed that the yard had been neglected, dead pot plants, tall weeds, broken outdoor umbrella. One of the reasons we chose this house was because they allowed pets. What they didn’t mention was the back fence had partially collapsed onto an adjoining property that had no fence and roads on 2 sides. So the property border is not secure. We were happy to pay a peak season price but expected a high standard in both cleaning and comfort. No personal welcoming touch’s on arrival, very aloof manner with communication after we checked in. We left a day early. Very disappointed!
