Perfect Stay

The property was clean and comfortable with everything we could ask for, plus a pool table! It was close to Woolworths, plus the main shops and restaurants just down the road in Penrith. The aircon worked well and it had all facilities we required. We would definitely stay at the property again.

Great place in a great location.

Travelled from Melbourne for a friends wedding, the property was spacious and felt like a home away from home. Close to amenities such as various shopping centres and to the walking trail along the river.

Home away from home

Walking in feels like home. Very clean and very comfortable. The kitchen fit out is great! Fantastic appliances. Oodles of crockery/plates, cutlery, pots, utensils. All the beds were comfortable. Good sized bathroom. Host was easy to contact. We regularly visit relatives near Penrith and will consider using again.

Great family stay

Location was perfect as we had a wedding close by and also wanted to explore Blue Mountains, even did Sydney day trip by train. House was comfortable and plenty of room. The highlight had to be the pool table, every evening my 3 teenage boys played and played. Great visit.

Quiet location

A perfect place to stay even though it was just me, as i needed ample off-street parking. The check in was simple; the house was clean and had everything you needed when being away from home. Riannon was a wonderful host that provided great communication. I highly recommend.

Wonderful for families

Our stay here was wonderful. The house is generous in size for a family, well equipped kitchen, 2 bathrooms, large living space and everything we needed. The bonus was the separate rumpus room with pool table/ping pong, playstation and large tv which was a hit with kids and adults alike. Only a 2min drive off the M4 and from the shopping centre. Off street parking.... would stay again without hesitation. Thank you for accommodating our stay!

Great home with trees, flowers and bird calls

This turned out to be perfect for our family of three: not too far from the train depot or grocery stores; not close, mind you, but manageable. The home was very clean and the beds comfortable. We enjoyed it thoroughly. Thank you.

This property was in a perfect location for our work needs. It was furnished nicely, in a very quiet spot and felt safe. The bed was softer than I am used to, but I surprisingly had an incredible sleep in it. It is well set up for self catering, with a shopping centre nearby. Aircon was good, stove very good and the smart TV was great too. All communications were smooth, simple, efficient and positive. I highly recommend this property in this area. We will return if it is available next time.

Unreal!

We stayed as a group of 4 adults going up the east coast. We had a car, but caught the train (15min walk) to Sydney, drove to blue mountains the following day, and relaxed enjoying the facilities of this lovely home of the last day. Exceptionally clean, lovely games room, nice bbq area, we could have stayed so much longer. I will definitely be back, (also, the log cabin is a MUST when here, 15m walk to a beautiful restaurant/bar, was an amazing night) To the hosts- again thank you so much for having us. It was perfect
