We absolutely loved staying at Sidney’s Retreat. Location was close, walking distance to shopping and restaurants. Short drive to Scenic Lookout and to beautiful views of the Blue Mountains. Home was charming, lovely and had everything we needed to make our stay very comfortable. Wished we could have stayed longer!

A small little cottage filled with charm. The location was great and convenient. As mentioned before, the property doesn't have parking, however, that didn't affect the overall stay.

This little cottage is conveniently located walking distance to the shops which include, Woolworths, Aldi, Big W, bakeries, restaurants etc. The beds were comfortable and there are beautiful floor to ceiling windows. Easy communication with property manager, property clean and stocked with toiletries and kitchen condiments. Just be mindful that there are stairs to access the cottage, no onsite parking (street parking available) and no washer/dryer.

A lovely place to stay. Just 1 street away from the Main Street in Katoomba but so quiet. So easy to walk to all the cafes and restaurants. Very comfortable and private.

Wonderful cabin close to town
Wonderful cabin close to town
The cottage has a cabin feel to it and is extremely cosy. A great place to spend time on the colder days and easy to access the mountains from. Close to all of Katoomba’s conveniences but you definitely don’t feel like you’re in the middle of town. Highly recommend.
