The dreadful management system in use by this property.

The property was well located for walking to Blackheath shops, pubs, and dining facilities, and driving to a number of excellent nearby walks.

The house itself is a little noisy if you have light sleepers but otherwise it adds to the charm and nods to the style and age of the house.

Calamandah House is in a great location, a quiet and peaceful neighbourhood with great proximity to explore the beautiful Blue Mountains and beyond. The beds are super comfortable and the house is equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay.

We all thought it was a beatuiful house, really nicely styled, with great facilities and comfy beds. We appreciated the little touches like milk in the fridge and shampoo and conditioner in the shower. Overall we were very comfortable staying here for work.

Loved this little house. Had everything we needed and walking distance into town to get food supplies or dinner.

Not applicable.

Calamandah House was chosen for its location in Blackheath, which made it accessible to the Blue Mts walking tracks as this was largely a hiking holiday. The three bedrooms met the requirements of three individual adults ( as we were). The house is extremely well equipped in all respects, including an interesting library. Well kept grounds which would be quite picturesque in spring.

I first thought it was a bit sad that people were complaining that the TV is too small (why you go to the mountains to watch tv?) but it is! After a long day exploring the regions and lots of walking, kids were crazy to have some comf food and watch Netflix and the TV is tiny! 🫣 Eletricity was down when we arrived and took us awhile to talk to the property manager but we contacted the eletricist listed on the property book and he managed to get it fixed through a phone call. Kettle was not working and oven only has grill option (functioning).

Comfortable & clean. Location isn’t the best if you are aiming to explore the touristic area of Blue Mountains. Beds And linen were great. Nice amenities too. Great bbq! I would recommend And come back!

The property was great. The only thing that was a slight frustration was communicating with the booking agent could be streamlined and more personalised. Eg. A group of us were meeting up from all over the state and asked in advance if we could get an early check in. I was told this couldn’t be answered until the actual day and I may get no response at all. I followed up with Accommodated to see if we could at least get a 1 hour early check in at 2pm instead of 3pm to allow us to drop our stuff to make it to an event at 3pm we were attending as a group but this did not happen. It made our first night a tricky one to navigate but the actual place is great! The communication made it hard to follow as every email appears auto generated and outlines the same very long repeated terms and conditions. It makes it tricky to find what (if any) new info they are sending you or if you need to respond. It would be a 10/10 stay from us if there was a more personalised or streamlined communication process from them. Not a huge drama - but just made it harder work than it needed to be. The cottage is so cute and cosy that we would stay again for sure!

Fantastic location & cute retro vibe. Amazing heating! Loved the light filled house, the decor, the front garden. It is a really short walk to Blackheath shops for great coffee, bread, all the yum stuff. Bedrooms are cosy and comfy.

Not a big deal but we did have to clean a bit as there were still sections under the furniture with lots of food on the ground from previous guest. Good thing was the laundry had the dustpan and vacuum cleaner so it wasn’t hard.

It was very cosy and inviting, and the house heating was very effective. Garden was very pretty even in autumn.

The TV could be better quality, and a better coffee machine wouldn’t go astray.

Very comfortable, good heating, all the small things that can make a stay memorable - games, good kitchen, lovely small garden, good location, Netflix, books to read.

This was a wonderful pet friendly property with a fully fenced yard. Very spacious place to spread out in. Comfy bed and couches with everything you need in the home. Our dogs loved running around the yard. We enjoyed the comfortable stay in this property so much we extended it by a night and we're very glad we did. Hopefully we can come back and stay here again as it was so enjoyable.

There was a set of doors leading to the garden and the door handle needs to be fixed -it falls off when you try to open them.

We can't think of anything that we didn't like, it was a wonderful home

Beautiful living room and garden. Gas fireplace and floor heating is amazing. We kept the heating off at night time as the blankets on the beds kept us warm. Great kitchen as well. I thought I was needing to buy a hairdryer but it had one in the laundry room.

Bedding was not as described. Bedroom 3 was meant to fit 2 mattresses on the floor - this was not possible, which meant for a family of 4 one child had to sleep on a quilt on the floor so they could be in one room. The verandah off the kitchen was unsafe with only a top rail and no balustrade so you could fall through to the ground. The clothes line was not readily accessible with a broken garden bench and 2 large pots containing dead plants under it. Dishwasher was broken.

The location and the garden were perfect, beds were comfortable, kitchen was well stocked with equipment

Little bit of TLC needed - re flyscreens falling out. No mirrors- only in main bedroom and wonky one in the bathroom. Lawn and garden needed attention. No air con. {heating available}

The house was very nice and well maintained. It was clean and the garden was lovely, a little oasis.
