The Old Shack nestled in its own private valley
As always, the old shack delivered exactly what we needed. Peace, quiet, relaxing, absolutely beautiful surroundings. We cannot recommend this place enough...we've been 3 times now. Judith is lovely! Always helpful and a master at starting that wood fired spa up for us in advance. We will be back again next year!

Cozy 130yr Old Sandstone Entire Cottage Pets allow
A beautiful, historic dwelling which we loved. Great facilities, very comfortable, close to all amenities. A great stay!

Studio Cottages - BnB and Cottages - Faulconbridge
This stay is by far one of the best Air B&B stays I’ve ever had. Went for a peaceful getaway and it was perfect. Andy was the most attentive host and his property was beyond beautiful and pristine. How he keeps the entire 3 acres this perfect is beyond me. The location, on the edge of a huge gorge had the best views ever! We enjoyed his stunning rock pool that looked like it was cut straight out of the natural, huge rock formations in the area. We ate outside almost every night in the beautiful garden area. Even made a small bonfire and just enjoyed the night. I cannot recommend Andy’s cottages more. We will for sure be back soon!

MontPierre Rustic & Cosy Mountain Cottage
Prue and Mathieu are extremely down to earth hosts. We got the chance to meet them and hear a little about their story and beautiful airbnb. My partner and I felt truly lucky to have found this hidden gem. As others have said, the photos do not do justice to the real thing. From the moment we entered from the front gate and into the home, my partner and I were completely mesmerized. Vintage and rustic, the decor and style left us spending the first hours of our stay marveling at the details put into this cozy home. 1000 character review is not EASY which I hope says a lot. MontPierre is the perfect mountain getaway home, and will always be a truly special home in our lives and couldn't be happier where we stayed (she said YES at Botanical Gardens!) and now we're engaged! We highly reccomend MontPierre and will definitely be coming back in the near future. Thank you Prue and Mathieu!

Beautiful Cottage in The Blue Mountains with Views
Absolutely loved my stay! The host was incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed. The space was beautifully decorated, spotless, and had all the amenities I could ask for. The location was perfect—quiet and peaceful. I especially enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and thoughtful touches like fresh linens helpful instructions for lighting the fire. Overall, a fantastic experience that I highly recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable and memorable stay. I’d definitely book again!

Bundeena Bungalow - idyllic beach shack
I loved this gorgeous home. Very cosy, big garden and quiet. A short walk to the beaches and main strip. If you plan a trip to Bundeena this is a great choice. Will be back!

Boatshed Bliss!- absolute waterfront
The Boatshed was an amazing place to stay. Congratulations to Barbara for being a great host. Greg & Deborah

Charlottes Cottage. Walk to beach
Charlottes Cottage is a delight. We could find no fault. Emily has provided everything for a ‘better than comforts of home’ stay. We will be back 😊

The Bakery
More Beautiful than I ever expected. Photos do not do the Bakery Justice. An absolutely stunning Guest House. No detail forgotten. Tam provided us with fresh, milk, bread and butter, a beautiful surprise. A cosy place to stay in the winter with a cosy fire and a bath tub to soak in. Perfect for a couple. Lovely kitchen with all cooking bits and bobs. A stunning wrap veranda leading to a garden, a bird Avery and a Hammock …. I cannot rate the Bakery high enough.

Camellia Cottage. Dog friendly. Fire Place.
Thank you Julie for a wonderful stay. Your house was beautiful, peacful amd very clean. We enjoyed staying warm by the fire place along with the comfy warm beds. Very close to shops, quick 2 min drive or a 20 min walk. You’re a great host and anyone reading this, will highly recommend Julie’s place for an excellent Blue Mountains getaway

Nungaroo ~ the classic mountain getaway !
Nungaroo Cottage is a charming timber slab retreat in the Blue Mountains, perfect for a peaceful escape. Surrounded by bushland and friendly farm animals, this eco-friendly stay offers a cosy open-plan living space with a fireplace, air-conditioning, and a well-equipped kitchenette. The main queen bed is set by the fire, while a loft area provides a king bed (or two singles on request). Relax in the private cedar hot tub, explore scenic trails, or enjoy the covered verandah with a BBQ.The resident rooster start crows around 4:30 AM :D

Bonnie Bundeena Cottage
We are regular stayers at this lovely property, made even better by the wonderful hosts who always make us feel like locals. Thank you again Marnie & Bruce! See you soon.

The Notebook
What a perfect cottage!! Excellent spot for a peaceful getaway. Private garden and within walking distance to a few of the national park walks. The space is cosy and has everything you need. The reading/seating nook by the window is a 10/10 where the sun comes in and you can look out into the garden. Amber was a great host, accommodating and responsive. We even met Dan who helped us late one night. Thanks, guys!! We will definitely be back. Cecilia & Eddie

Ferngrove Cottage - Idyllic mountain retreat
A truly special Airbnb, a home away from home. We’ve stayed in dozens and this is up there with the very best. The kitchen is perfect for cooking, beds are super comfy, shower is great, the decorative touches give a lovely character - and the space overall just works really well. The outdoor area and views are incredible, and Alex & David’s approach to hosting is as good as it gets. We’d love to return one day!

Cottage Hill Creek: guest house near beach & bush.
Really beautiful property and location. We loved this little nook of the central coast! We loved listening to the nature sounds throughout the day. Really kind host and very responsive and the cottage was extremely clean with comfy beds! We had a great stay doing a little bit of exploring but mainly having nice quality time at home with family. Thanks for having us!

Cottage in Tempe
We enjoyed staying in this little cottage at Tempe. It suited us so well as it was near other family who live in the area. We were able to meet at the Tempe Hotel where you can get excellent meals. Easy walk to Woolworths and Aldi and public transport is at the end of the street.

Seaside Cottage
Can’t wait to go back- it’s was perfect!

Wendouree
My partner and I enjoyed this space, nestled in and tucked away amongst the greenery of North bridge and beside the water (a 5 minute walk, essentially). We would stay here again.

Renovated cottage in quiet peaceful part of Avalon
What a wonderful Airbnb experience this was, Paul’s place was sparkling clean, comfortable, well located, and communication was efficient with a late check out allowed. This was our second time in Avalon and we will definitely look to stay here in the future when visiting again.

“Six Oaks” Wilderness Retreat
The cottage is so clean, cozy and peaceful. The hosts are very friendly and offer all the essentials you will need for a great stay. The fire pit and walking areas on the property provide more than enough entertainment for a weekend away. I would highly recommend choosing Six Oaks for your next getaway!
