About this property

Restored 1940's Holiday Flat

  • A recently restored 1940s holiday flat one block from The 3 Sisters, Echo Point and the Prince Henry Cliff Walk.

    It has polished hardwood floors, a restored kitchen and bathroom and Mid 20th Century Modern details and furnishings. Sun fills the space during the daytime and a beautiful 'Eco Smart' open fireplace keeps it cosy in the evening.

    Facilities/ Entertainment

    The Flat has two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and one with a double bed. There is also a substantial rollaway single bed that can be placed in any of the rooms. All the beds have new high quality mattresses and linen.

    For weekend chefs the kitchen is well equiped

    This is our holiday house, we do not live in the area and therefore we do not provide perishables such as milk and butter.

    There is a TV, DVD, Video and CD players, turntable and iPod dock as well as a wide selection of games, books, music and movies.

    Other: hairdryer, iron, washing machine, dryer, heaters in every room, linen and towels provided, coffee and tea.

    No Pets or Smoking are allowed inside the flat.

    Our Favourite Things To Do

    You know all about the Blue Mountains and the many attractions... This is what we like to do when we stay.

    Take a 30 minute bush walk to Solitary Restaurant for lunch.
    Watch sun set on the 3 Sisters after all the tourists have left for the day.
    Drink cups of tea on the front step in the morning sun.
    Enjoy wine and cheese on the front step in the late afternoon before moving in to enjoy the open fire.
    Explore the many different restaurants and cafes of Katoomba (our recommendations are on record at the flat)
    Shop for 'bric a brac' in the countless second hand shops of Katoomba, Leura and Blackheath.

We loved our stay here, great location, central but quiet and an easy walk to the Three Sisters. The house is very comfortable with the open fire and electric blankets being very warm.

It was a cold rainy weekend in Katoomba but our accommodation was dry and toasty warm. After a trip to Megalong Books in Leura and Glee Books in Blackheath we were set to read and drink tea by the fire in the living room. We had a great weekend and much needed unwind.

The property lives up to its title of "Restored 1940's Holiday Flat". It was super cosy and the heater surprisingly warm despite the heavy cloud and low temperatures outside. Just perfect.

Cool Retro Unit, Blue Mountains

Cool Authentic Retro Unit for fun short stay in Katoomba. Funny to see the technology driven teenage kid’s reaction to the 50s decor of this great unit. Location was short walk to 3 Sisters info centre and walking/hiking trails. Located just the right distance from the hustle of the Katoomba town centre. Self sufficient accommodation with all the necessary amenities, good wifi.

Warm comfortable space for a lovely getaway

Hi, Spent two nights with my paramour in this wonderful space. Even though it was cold and miserable outside the fireplace kept the home warm and the heaters in the bedroom took the edge off. The only small issue was the amount of hot water,. Even economic use sees it deplete far too quickly.... Highly recommended for a romantic weekend away. .

Lovely cottage in the mountains

We stayed for two nights whilst taking in the scenery of Katoomba. The cottage is a step back in time and tastefully styled. All the basic comforts you would expect are provided and the location is perfect for accessing walking tracks without having to drive. We recommend this property, it was lovely.

Wonderful Experience

This is a lovely property a stone's throw away from Three Sisters. A well appointed apartment in which we were very comfortable. We would highly recommend it to anyone. Tracey, the owner, went out of her way to meet our needs, including posting some things that we left behind back to us.

Clean property in a great location close to the 3 sisters. Parking in front of garage was a bit weird with other cards around/close but aside from that everything was wonderful and easy. Thank you!

We loved our stay here. It was so close to everything and the feeling of the cottage is relaxing and warm. Everything is there to make your stay comfortable including games, puzzles and DVDs which our two girls enjoyed. It is clean, beautifully renovated with awesome detail in furniture and lighting. Loved the light filled rooms and comfortable beds. Would highly recommend to everybody!

Charming, sun-filled,cosy and quiet.

We really enjoyed staying in the thoughtfully restored apartment. The street is quiet, and the rooms get sun most of the day. It was still much appreciated having so many heating options, we felt cosy at all times. We would love to return.

Great lil house

We really enjoyed our stay at this Restored 50's flat. We stayed here with our 2 girls- 2 and 4 years and found it to be a very comfy little sunny home. We could warm up the place easily although may need to be careful with young kids if using the fire which we did need on at night to warm up the place. It is so close to the three sisters!

Very Enjoyable

I stayed here with my husband and three year old over the Easter weekend. We just loved this holiday rental. Although it is listed as an apartment it really feels like a small house as it has its own private garden and we didn't really notice the neighbours. It has been beautifully renovated and filled with stylish designer furniture from the 1950s and 60s. It was spotlessly clean and thoughtfully appointed. There is a fully equipped kitchen and the beds are really comfortable. The turntable and record collection was lots of fun and the eco fireplace created a lovely atmosphere. It is also in a great location, a few minutes walk from Echo Point and various bushwalks. There is also a nice bar at the end of the street for those not inclined to be outdoors.
