My daughter and I were in Blackheath for a family occasion and did not spend much time at the property, but from what we saw it would be a great starting point for the walks one can enjoy nearby. (Although at the time of our visit, Govett's Leap was closed - until Feb 2023). The house backs onto bushland and we were visited by rosellas, cockatoos and a possum carrying a young one on her back. The property was clean and well-equipped. Blackheath is chilly in the spring, and we had figured out how to use the slow combustion fire by the end of the week. Marie was quick to respond to our inquiries.

The slow combustion fire was a highlight. This place was cosy and warm. The bed comfortable. The spa bath made relaxing after long bush walking days easy. Close to the best bushwalking spots in area.

Blue Gum House
We loved our stay at Blue Gum House, it was perfect for a family weekend. Close to great walks with views and also shops, cafes, restaurants, pubs etc for anything you might need. We loved waking up to and coming home to the wood burner fire and the spa bath. The house has everything you need for your stay in it and there were some nice touches for guests. Marie was great to deal with and quick to respond to any questions that we had. We would consider staying here again and could certainly recommend the property to others.

This house was like nothing we had ever stayed in before - a real escape from the city. Surrounded by bushland, the only sounds were birdsong and silence. The house was comfortable and on a rainy weekend, the crackling fire was the perfect setting for rest and relaxation.

Comfortable house with lovely outdoor area.
Very clean with a great atmosphere. It’s a comfortable and cosy house with a lovely garden and outdoor areas. We would stay there again. The spa is a bit of a concern because someone could easily fall into it they walked into the bathroom at night without turning the light on!

Great place to stay
Weather was non-stop rain when we stayed, so we didn't really experience the outdoor areas, but inside was great. Comfortable bed, and we had a nice fire going almost all weekend.

Clean, tidy and comfortable, five members of my family enjoyed our stay and hope to be back soon!
What an amazing house to stay at! Marie was awesome at answering all my questions before my stay so that I had no concerns before my arrival. The house was clean, the beds were comfortable and the fire place sure kept us warm. The spa bath was large, hot and relaxing after a big day out in the mountains. The kitchen was stocked with everything I needed and it was such a delight to find that there was coffee and tea and a chocolate! I look forward to staying in Blue Gum House again soon and would highly recommend to families for a great place to stay in the mountains. I must admit that I missed having an internet connection, however this forced me to have some real time out!!!

Excellent accommdation
We arrived on a Friday evening for a two day break from very busy lives. The cottage was spotlessly clean and very welcoming. We spent Saturday travelling around the Blue Mountains and then enjoyed a fabulous evening meal at a local restaurant. We did some serious bush walking on Sunday morning before heading back to Sydney.
We will be recommending the cottage to our friends and will be back!

Just like home, relaxing, comfortable, great location
We loved Blue Gum House - it was exactly as described and spotlessly clean. The house is relaxing and comfortable, we had 5 people and it did not feel crowded. We were welcomed with fresh flowers and chocolate, the kitchen is well equipped (although has only just enough place settings for 6), the bedrooms were comfortable. A highlight was sitting in the comfy lounge room watching the mist settle in the beautiful garden. Location was great for our needs - bushwalking, poking around the shops in Katoomba and Leura, visiting Megalong Valley. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.
Thanks to Marie for making our stay so comfortable!

The cottage was very clean and well presented and is very comfortable. Despite very cold weather we were able to stay warm and cosy and the wood fire is lovely! The kitchen is well equipped and the spa bath was awesome after hours of steep climbing on the mountain trails. Be aware that the spa is in the middle of the bathroom though - you need to take care going to the toilet in the dark! Overall a very relaxing and enjoyable stay.
