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.

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 !!

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. ##### Ozlem C.

May 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 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. ##### Deb L.

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. ##### CHERYL B. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### toni c. May 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### 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. ##### toni c. Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Andrew N. Dec 31, 2022 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### 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! ##### Andrew N. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Eduardo S. Apr 25, 2025 Liked: Communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, listing accuracy #### 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 ##### Eduardo S. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aaron N. Jan 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 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. ##### Aaron N. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul P.
