    Perfect timeout without distractions

    • Pine Two-Bedroom Cottage
    • Stayed 3 nights

    Nothing really. All the facilities were available, some issues with kids not placing the play equipment (balls, rackets etc) after use but that's more to do with the other guests not following the rules.

    It is located in the a very peaceful and quiet location however you are close to everything if you want to go for a drive. Its close to Evans Lookout plus all the attractions that Blue mountains are famous for. The cottage along with the facilities are very well managed and more than enough for a family vacation.

    what a spot!!! incredible - perfect for families with so many activities, room to run around and play, fire pit was fabulous. the cabins were a great size and linen was lovely. the staff were also the most welcoming and friendly we’ve experienced in a long time. highly recommend and we’ll definitely be back (even though we were only in town for a family wedding and had driven from Brisbane!)

    Although part of the location, there were roaches. We 100% know this was location and not due to cleanliness but others may not be so lenient. The shower in the cabin was incredibly small and fine for the two nights we were there, it means we wouldn’t consider a long stay unfortunately.

    Loved the location, loved the available facilities, (although we couldn’t use them as we didn’t have enough time), loved the extra touched in the room, staff was super friendly - couldn’t have asked for more

    Sadly the weather (we know its nothing to do with the accomodation) did not allow us to take full advantage of the facilities.

    Beautiful peaceful environment. Fully equipped cabins. Everything you want for a stay away from it all.

    The bed (double). It was pretty uncomfortable. A couple of cushions on each of the sofas would be nice for comfort. However it was an excellent stay and we will be back.

    Everything else especially the well designed pool.

    Pool could of been warmer, we had a wild windy night, which made the sky light in the house suck up and down which was really loud and scared the kids a bit.

    Key pick up, we could phone and up date the pick time.

    Honestly there was nothing we didn't like - we absolutely loved every bit of our stay and didn't want to leave when it came time to go home - just makes us want to get back there even sooner! Can't wait :)

    We stayed in the Pine Lodge room number 5 it was fantastic! The room had all the facilities we needed and there are plenty of DVDs at reception to borrow. The swimming pool is really nice and kept at a temperature to make it appropriate to swim at any time, the games room has a pool table and many other things, tennis rackets and balls to use on the courts, plus a basketball ring and volleyball net - there was no shortage of things to do. There is a laundry with washing machine and dryer (free to use) which was very convenient, a share BBQ area and a fire pit! The grounds itself are really nice to walk around in too it very scenic, peaceful and quiet. Jess is a fantastic host, really lovely and very helpful - we will definitely be coming back!
