The Gatehouse, Medlow Bath
The Gatehouse è una proprietà del National Trust situata a Medlow Bath, nelle Blue Mountains del Nuovo Galles del Sud, in Australia, a circa 115 km a ovest di Sydney ed è accessibile dalla strada o dalla ferrovia. Il Gatehouse è un cottage ferroviario autonomo in arenaria, ora di proprietà privata, che offre alloggi con angolo cottura per brevi o lunghi soggiorni.
A metà del XIX secolo le ferrovie governative del NSW iniziarono la costruzione di una ferrovia attraverso le Blue Mountains verso le regioni occidentali del NSW. Il Gatehouse è uno dei dodici identici cottage in pietra costruiti per ospitare i guardiani del passaggio a livello e le loro famiglie. Il Gatehouse a Medlow Bath fu costruito nel 1867 ed è un punto di riferimento pittoresco nel quartiere.
Il Gatehouse è facilmente raggiungibile a piedi dalla stazione ferroviaria di Medlow Bath e dall'Hydro Majestic Hotel. Medlow Bath si trova a metà strada tra i famosi belvedere, le passeggiate e le attrazioni turistiche di Katoomba e Blackheath.
La sistemazione è per 1 - 4 persone e comprende:
- 2 camere da letto (la camera da letto principale contiene un letto matrimoniale e la seconda camera da letto contiene un letto singolo e un letto a rotelle singolo)
- Salotto con camino
- Cucina
- Sala da pranzo
- Bagno (con pavimento riscaldato e vasca per i fianchi con artigli)
Il Gatehouse è dotato di posate, stoviglie, utensili da cucina, piano cottura elettrico e forno, frigorifero, un sistema audio (Bluetooth, lettore CD e radio digitale / FM), biancheria da letto (cuscini, coperte e trapunte), coperte elettriche, tovaglie, strofinacci e legna da ardere. Noleggio biancheria da letto (lenzuola e federe) e asciugamani sono disponibili su richiesta per prenotazioni effettuate con almeno una settimana di anticipo.
Indicazioni stradali:
Da Sydney seguire l'autostrada M4 in direzione ovest fino a Katoomba / Blue Mountains. Ai piedi delle colline delle Blue Mountains l'autostrada diventa la Great Western Highway. Medlow Bath è il prossimo comune dopo Katoomba.
A Medlow Bath, non seguire la Great Western Highway sul tunnel ferroviario. Invece proseguire dritto su una strada laterale. Questa strada laterale è Station Steet. Se perdi l'uscita per la strada laterale, non farti prendere dal panico, al semaforo svolta a sinistra e poi a destra in Station Street.
Servizio ferroviario:
Medlow Bath è una stazione sulla linea Blue Mountains. Gli orari sono disponibili sul sito Web Transport NSW.

Quaint and effort made to blend the authentic with the modern. Trains as neighbours were fun although some may describe it otherwise.
The place was quite dusty. Plenty of heaters. Some local knowledge, info, brochures etc could be helpful.
Info re the house would be both interesting and helpful. Couldn’t get front door opened.
Appreciated amount of wood left as it was rainy and foggy whole time we were there.
Arrival instructions that include dirt road and no through road sign would be helpful.
So much potential. We did though enjoy our short stay.
5.0 / 5.0
It was a destination wish list, as my wife's great grandmother was the Gatekeeper for 20+ years from 1882. There were eleven children in the family, so we're not sure where they slept.
The cottage building appears to be original, but the interior has been updated, but sympatheticly, with some modern additions like electricity and plumbing. Make sure you read the local historical books suppled. The nightime goods trains would be an acquired experience.
Overall we enjoyed the two days.

This rare piece of history made for an amazing place to spend some time. It is a great reflection of the era that it was built, and like staying in a living museum. No TV or Wi-Fi meant more reading, which was lovely.
There was obvious traffic and train noise, but that's why it was built there in the first place, all those years ago.
Very special indeed.

Difficult to find the words to explain how much I enjoyed our tiny 2 night stay at the Gatehouse cottage. I have watched the cottage since I was a child, then it sold in the 1970s, and again a few decades later. And to find that now I can enjoy it fully occasionally is magic. Each trip across the mountains we would drive up and inspect it, even the bathroom extension. And now it is presented with all convenient inclusions, even in winter. Perfect sunshiny days and chilly nights in front of the fire. The cottage is central, and the towns and sights seem closer together now, or am I old?! Yep, and can't wait to bring the grandkids up for a weekend of history and snugness. Thank you so very much for opening it up to be enjoyed by all. Loved every minute of our stay.

Perfect stay for the week with my family. Love the old school charm, and being able to have a fire in January thanks to the mountains weather…34 and sunny one day, 13 and rainy the next. Easy access to all the local tourist stuff and lots of awesome hikes within a few minutes drive. Highly recommend!!! And yes there are trains, and trucks, but the positives far outweigh any negatives.

5.0 / 5.0
A sympathetically renovated and furnished cosy cottage which provides some insight into life 150 years ago. (The sandstone cottage was built in 1867). With mod cons such as a lovely bathroom accessed via a glass walkway) it was most enjoyable. No wifi meant a chance to slip around from the 21st century. Some road and rail noise but lovely nonetheless.

Quaint cottage with an impressive log fire. Enjoyable for couples or small families as one double and one single on property. Cottage has a great garden to relax in.

My partner bought a painting of this home years ago, then discovered that it was available for rental and as she said "we're staying here". What a cottage, cold outside, heated inside, modern bathroom with heated floor, a kitchen with all you need, no T.V or internet, but didn't come here to watch t.v, restaurants and shopping ?, Blackheath 10 mins up the road and Katoomba 6 mins down the road, or walk to the Hydro Majestic, the trains are just outside the house, after the first you don't hear them or don't care, it was a fantastic long weekend for us both, would highly recommend and we will be back.

The bed could be a bit better and the firewood cut a bit smaller to suit the fireplace but overall a nice cottage and enjoyable.

Unique, historic and cosy
A privilege to have experienced staying in such an historic and attractive sandstone cottage. This is a railway gatekeepers cottage so noise from trains and nearby highway was expected. A common experience with the linear residential development hugging the transport lines in the blue mountains. Location and garden setting was excellent. Wendy has many thoughtful additions within. Weather was favourable and we made the most of walks at nearby Blackheath, Katoomba and Leura. Accommodation description was accurate. No TV or microwave was a plus, enabling the atmosphere and ambiance of the cottage to be enjoyed. Thank you Wendy for providing the opportunity of such a unique experience.

The Medlow Bath cottage was exactly as described. A quaint stone cottage oozing with history and ambience. The property owner was quick to respond to questions and helpful local insight. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

The Gatekeepers Cottage is a delight!
The owners have taken great care to preserve the history, while modernising for comfort. The sandstone walls, the fire place, original-style furniture. The garden is a delight you should explore, filled with flowers and fruit trees. A hidden surprise is the book collection, from Jasper Fronde to Ian Fleming and Aurther Conan Doyle. Stay here - you won’t regret it.

Enjoyed property but some limitations
We found the property dusty and appreciate the fact due to the age of the property that it may be hard to clean.
There is a leak in the cold water tap in the bathroom. The shower is a really bad design as water goes everywhere. There was no mop to mop it up nor extra towels provided to mop/dry it up. It might be a good idea to provide a dryer so people can dry towels, clothes etc.
We also found there was nothing to hang anything up.

Beautiful little cottage and garden
Enjoyed our 3 days, everything was as described and the cottage comfortable and cosy. There are plenty of heating options if needed. The road and rail noise is as expected, but staying in such a historic cottage is well worth it. The garden was also nice place to be. Thank you Wendy.

weekend away
a beautiful old cottage style house, modern kitchen/bathroom with heated floors and a huge bath tub with feet, this property is perfect for those who want to get away from city life and hussle & bussle and leave your wi-fi at home, there is no t.v but if you want to relax you can in front of the huge fireplace and read a good book which they have plenty of or you can bring your own and it is close to shops and the hydro majestic, i loved it and i will be back, 1 happy camper!👌�

Beautiful Cottage
Our family had a wonderful time at the Gatehouse in Medlow Bath. The cottage is warm, cosy and full of beautiful period features. The location is great- close enough to Katoomba for convenience but far enough away to feel a bit isolated from the crowds. We loved the history of the place and would absolutely love to stay here again.

New beginings
It was always a dream to stay here and Wendy has made it possible.
The cottage was full of old world charm. You can see the effort taken to make your stay authentic.
We catered for ourselves and everything we need was provided.
The bathroom is modern and we relaxed it the claw foot bath.
The linen provided was fresh and the bed has that old world squeaky charm.
...and yes folks...there are trains! but its called the "Gatehouse" for a reason...
All in all, we loved it and thank you again Wendy for making this piece of history available.

The charm of yesteryear meets modern convenience
Those with an appreciation for how life was lived in generations past should look no further than this little slice of history during their stay in the blue mountains. The cottage and grounds stand just as they must have when founded in 1867, as testified by an array of documents, pictures, and books to be found inside.
Bedrooms and living areas were understated but functional and comfortable, with the kitchen and bathroom upgrades more than offsetting any of the trivial inconveniences that were simply part of life when this cottage was laid out. The railway and highway are both close by, incurring the noise that necessarily brings with it during peak hours, but also making travel to either Blackheath or Katoomba a breeze.
All correspondence was prompt, professional, and attentive, with a comprehensive guide preventing any potential hiccups along the way.
All told, the cottage should be regarded as an attraction in itself, and the fact that you can stay in it an amazing bonus!

Great place to stay
My family had a lovely time staying at the gatehouse. The gatehouse is well located to explore many of the blue mountains attractions. We enjoyed staying in a historic house which had so many interesting features, and we enjoyed having a fire each night. The house was clean and we had all the facilities we needed for a week away. Wendy the owner was very helpful and friendly.

Wonderfully liveable, original heritage cottage.
We were overwhelmed by the ambiance and original features of this old cottage. The bathroom is a fully modernised add-on and happily all features were very warm with a log fire and electric heating on some freezing cold and windy days. Excellent old jigsaws (and no TV)!
Extra bonus were the trackworks with no trains at all running over the weekend - otherwise is 'atmospherically' very close the the train line.
Easy walking distance to great coffee, food, the historic hydro majestic hotel and walking tracks into the Blue Mountains National Park.
Supermarkets, antiques and a huge range of restaurants are a few Km walk or drive away.
Would love to stay again with this accommodating hostess who conscientiously warned us about the planned trackworks.

This is my second stay. Loved it!
What a wonderful place to escape the world around us and step back in time. The fireplace was certainly on and the whole experience was like something out of a historical novel. Wendy was a great host as always. The cottage was clean, cosy and a great experience.

The Gatehouse Medlow Bath
To stay in the 150 year old sandstone Gatehouse was a unique experience. It has been tastefully furnished mostly using antique or traditional furniture, and is very comfortable, albeit still cold with the fire and heaters at this time of the year. Wendy was very helpful. We found it strange to have to supply our own linen, but were happy enough to do so. The inclusion of bedside tables and reading lamps and somewhere to store clothes or place a suitcase off the floor in the second bedroom would have been good. We would not recommend this location for more than three adults.
