The cottage is charming and is close to the city centre. The bathroom is bright and has been updated while maintaining period features. The balcony area outside the kitchen would be great in warmer weather. The kitchen has almost an over abundance of crockery, cutlery etc. for two people. The bedroom available to us was on the small side - not enough space for both our suitcases. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Burnie Brae is an immaculate cottage. The linen and towels are good quality and there are even bath robes. We particularly liked the spacious bathroom, which has a large window and a double shower. You can take your pick of tables for dinner as there are three: one in the living room, one in the kitchen and one on the verandah. The cottage is a 10-minute walk from the Carrington hotel and restaurants, but the walk is steep so consider this if you have mobility issues. Or you could stock up and stay on-site and enjoy all the charms of Burnie Brae.

We absolutely loved our stay at Burnie Brae! It’s a fabulous base for exploring Katoomba and surrounds. Lovely quiet residential street and an easy walk into town. The colonial house is beautifully decorated but also very relaxed and homely. Fully equipped, big country style kitchen, comfy lounge and bed, and the double rain shower was luxurious! Warm central heating was barely needed as the house retains the heat well. The garden is gorgeous too. The owner Mike was great in explaining everything and left very detailed, useful information and recommendations. 10/10

The property had everything you could wish for. It was of course a beautiful Edwardian property with all the romance of that era but with the convenience of the modern age. Burnie Brae felt like a real home. The kitchen was well equipped with plenty of crockery, cutlery, pots, pans and glassware. The double shower was pure decadence with plenty of hot water. The heating system was efficient and kept the home warm and cosy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
