About the host
Hosted by Kevin
The cottage is our holiday home. We open it to guest to enjoy Leura and the beautiful Blue Mountains. My wife Kay and I are semi-retired and while we do not live at the cottage we visit regularly. I am a keen bush walker and can even walk directly on trails from the cottage to the spectacular Leura cascades.
As well as information about the cottage feel free to message me about walks. local shops, cafes, restaurants and other events in the mountains. We will respond promptly to guest communications through the Stayz portal.

Why they chose this property
We love the Blue Mountains. To live on the top of the escarpment at 1000m surrounded by a unique World Heritage national park is a real privilege. The local villages of Leura and Katoomba are both within a 5 mins drive have lots of history and interesting building. There is an eclectic range of shops, lots of cafe's, restaurants a cinema and entertainment options, especially live music. There are dozens of walks within a short drive and you can even take the path from outside the cottage and walk to Leura Cascades (20 mins) or join the newly renovated Prince Henry Cliff Walk that goes along the edge of the escarpment between Leura and Wentworth Falls. There are also beautiful drives to visit some spectacular lookouts, other mountain villages, wineries in the Megalong valley and the beautiful gardens, depending on the time of year with Spring and Autumn being the most spectacular. As well as the local vineyards, you can also visit orchards and cider farms near Bilpin and a micro-brewery in Katoomba. For the more adventurous you can go Mountain Biking, Canyoning, visit the world class Jenolan Caves (tourist and adventure caves) and Rock climb or Abseil. There is even an artificial rock climbing wall in Leura that is suitable for adults and children. You can hire gear and tour guides for most of these activities in Katoomba.
Its hard to get bored in the Blue Mountains if you love outdoor scenery and activities.

What makes this property unique
Lavender Cottage is a well equipped, charming, cozy hideaway set in unspoilt bushland. It's located in a quiet street around 600m from Leura. You can snuggle up in front of the log effect gas fire in winter and appreciate the newly renovated bathroom with a heated floor.
The cottage is surrounded by gardens and if you don't want to go far you can relax in the quiet of the gardens.
If the weather is inclement and you don't want to venture outdoors, the cottage has a range of board games, a small personal book library including a number of local guidebooks, a record collection and player / speakers, that will also stream music. We also have TV's, DVD, CD and video player, with a good selection of adult and children's CD's and videos (for those who remember videos).
