A Great Place to Stay.
We stayed in the middle of winter. (It snowed!!) It was so great to come home and turn on the fireplace. It was so warm, as was central heating. The fireplace warmed the house. The place is beautifully renovated, lovely touches inside. Had everything. We parked the car and walked everywhere from here. The owners always replied immediately. A great place to stay.

Charming and oh so comfortable!
Charming property close to cafes, supermarkets and transport. So comfortable... especially sitting in front of the fireplace after a day of exploring all that Katoomba has to offer. We put on a movie from the DVD library but fell asleep as we succumbed to the warmth from the fireplace and the coziness of the couch!

Cozy and Convenient
Spent two nights at this charming home located just a couple blocks from the main shopping area. Quick access to multiple bush walks throughout the area and a quick drive to the Three Sisters overlook. House was very clean and cozy with thoughtful touches such as board games and movies for a family night after a day of hiking. Would absolutely book again.

Fabulous time at Green Gables
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this house. Very convenient to Katoomba, only 5 minutes walk up the hill. The home itself had everything we needed in the way of utensils and appliances. It was very warm and did not take long to heat up when we got in in the evening.

Loved our stay
We loved the 1930s style of living ...very cosy and quaint. the kitchen was beautifully stocked with cutlery,glasses of types and purposes.We also loved the immaculate condition of the kitchen and the spectacular stove. Thankyou for having sufficient kitchen cleaning products and powder for the washing machine. The bedrooms and beds were in great and comfortable condition. We loved the fireplace and heating on such a cold weekend. Thankyou for taking pride in your quaint home... it was certainly a step back in time for us.
