Comfy cottage

We enjoyed a really relaxing weekend at Strathearn Cottage. Weather was great, and we enjoyed exploring the local neighbourhood for walks with our dog. Such a quite setting surrounded by interesting homes and gardens. Leura and Katoomba shops and lookouts are only a short drive away, so we found the location perfect.

Quiet with lovely outlook.

The house is in a very quiet area, high up in the trees. Bev was super kind and helpful. We had a medium sized dog which was fine, but I don’t think it would be suitable for bigger dogs, or more than one dog as the garden is very small and is off the main bedroom. The bathroom is also off the main bedroom which was fine for us as it was just the two of us. It was nice and warm with aircon and also an open fire. We enjoyed our stay.
