Poet's Cottage - NEW!

Poet's Cottage is an idyllic 3 bedroom 2 bathroom self-contained holiday home, ideal for couples, friends and families. Originally built in 1912, Poet's Cottage is located on the edge of the beautiful Valley of the Waters in historic Wentworth Falls - a 5-minute drive from charming Leura Village. The cottage accommodates 2 to 7 guests. This stylishly restored and extended 108-year-old property offers the best of both worlds - tranquility and quiet away from the tourist crowds yet Leura and Katoomba are just a quick drive away. Self-contained, with plenty of pampering comforts, the cottage offers an open plan lounge and dining area with a new freestanding gas log fireplace and a well-equipped kitchen. Snuggle up in the three bedrooms with two queen beds, one king single bed and two single beds. Watch honey-eaters sip flower nectar while relaxing on your entertainment deck, or wander through the large garden before enjoying the beauty of the world heritage-listed Blue Mountains National Park, which backs directly onto the property. Then return to the cottage for a pampering spa. Poet's Cottage is ideal for couples, families, trekkers, nature and bird enthusiasts. For a romantic, adventurous or family getaway of simple elegance and comfort, spoil yourself and enjoy all the Blue Mountains has to offer. *Winner - Booking.com Guest Review Awards in 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017 *Winner - TripAdvisor Award for Excellence in 2019, 2018, 2017 *Winner - TripAdvisor Top Vacation Rental in 2013 *Regarding wheelchair accessibility: the cottage is flat with no steps except for two tiny steps into the bathrooms - these tiny steps can be an issue for some wheelchairs such as electric wheelchairs.
