A charming little cottage with all the amenities available. The spa bath , fire place and Bbq was a bonus. Close to Govetts leap and 5 minutes back to Blackheath for a variety of eateries. We stayed for 2 nights which was not long enough. Marie is a great host and when we asked if we could check in earlier she happily obliged. Will recommend staying in this charming cottage.

Good location
My daughter and I were in Blackheath for a family occasion and did not spend much time at the property, but from what we saw it would be a great starting point for the walks one can enjoy nearby. (Although at the time of our visit, Govett's Leap was closed - until Feb 2023). The house backs onto bushland and we were visited by rosellas, cockatoos and a possum carrying a young one on her back. The property was clean and well-equipped. Blackheath is chilly in the spring, and we had figured out how to use the slow combustion fire by the end of the week. Marie was quick to respond to our inquiries.
