PLUM BLOSSOM COTTAGE

Plum Blossom Cottage is a delightful weatherboard mountain home nestled in Katoomba, Blue Mountains, seamlessly blending modern, retro, and vintage styles. This spacious five-bedroom, two-bathroom residence boasts Art Deco elements and antique furnishings, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. The newly renovated bathrooms feature contemporary fixtures, including a deep bath, harmoniously complementing the home's classic charm. The country-style eat-in kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering, making it ideal for families and groups. The open-plan living and dining area, surrounded by stained glass windows, offers beautiful garden views and a bright, airy atmosphere. The property is equipped with heating and cooling systems, ensuring year-round comfort.

The northwest sunny back deck, complete with a BBQ, overlooks plum blossom trees and a meandering blooming cottage garden, providing the perfect setting for relaxation and outdoor dining. The well-maintained garden serves as a peaceful retreat, enhancing the home's tranquil environment. Conveniently located, the cottage is within walking distance to Katoomba Village centre and the iconic Three Sisters, granting easy access to local attractions. Public transport options are readily available, with the Blue Mountains Explorer Bus—a hop-on, hop-off service—passing directly by the property, allowing guests to explore the area at their leisure.

Plum Blossom Cottage is pet-friendly; however, please note that the rear gate is not secure, and there is a gap beneath it.

Property is quaint and well laid out. However simply far too full of collectibles in kitchen. There was literally nowhere to store groceries for our 3 nights. Some general eating bowls were dirty. Beds are way too short. Myself and family are tall ... 185cm to 195cm. We could not stretch out fully in short old beds with ends, and while we loved our stay, the bed length will see us having to stay elsewhere in future, which is a shame. Beds only suitable for up to 175-180cm max. Oven door will not close fully, and the heating at 22* is simply ridiculous for middle of winter in cold old home. Cheers.

Great location and plenty of room

The property surpassed my expectations! The house was the perfect size for four high school friends to reconnect on our yearly catch ups. Bedrooms were spacious, sheets and pillows were super soft, electric blanket was a bonus. Having two bathrooms for 5 bedrooms was handy. Kitchen was well stocked with everything you’ll ever need, shame we didn’t cook ! Location of house was half way between The Three Sisters and Katoomba shops, easy walking distance to both. The back garden is beautiful! We all enjoyed watching the birds foraging in the tree, the autumn leaves falling, camellias flowering, the privacy and peacefulness when using the back yard was rejuvenating for the soul! We didn’t get a chance to play any boardgames, read any books provided, or watch tv, but it’s nice to know that you cater well for all your guests. We all commented that we’d use this accommodation again. Correspondence was always clear, and very prompt with a reply. Our weekend was perfect! Thank you

Lovely little cottage in a great location

We had some initial issues with access to the property with a faulty key but the property managers were responsive. It is a lovely property and very clean. Great features include two bathrooms, ample seating in lounge area, lovely backyard and deck, large kitchen and a great location with a short walk into Katoomba town and the RSL. The beds we used (3) were beautifully appointed but a little too firm for our comfort (personal taste/requirements). Compared to other properties, there is very little available in the pantry. There are a set of very narrow steps that lead down into the kitchen which is not shown in any of the photos. This was a little difficult to navigate for the dog and at night also as they are a bit slippery (wood) as well. Something to consider if you have small children or a dog with you. I am including these things, so others know in advance rather than a criticism. Overall, the property is delightful and in such a great location so I would highly recommend it. The property managers also alerted me ahead when I asked about the dog, that there is a gap under the back gates that a small dog can definitely get under. Our dog is large so not a problem for us. We really enjoyed our stay at Plum cottage and Hedi and Luke are great to deal with.

Great Location

Plum Blossom Cottage is a spacious and charming home with a mix of old and new. It has been renovated but maintains its heritage feel. The home is very clean with a well appointed kitchen, large bedrooms, modern bathrooms and a shady garden to relax in at the end of the day. The location is ideal being within walking distance of the Katoomba CBD and Echo Point / the Three Sisters. Nearby bus stop as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Communication

Hi the communication that came before the visit was a bit over the top. It made you feel the property had issues with noise previously. You felt the visit was impeded before you arrived. It made me and my family nervous about enjoying the house. We went out of it as we we’re worried to use or sit outside. Then to top it off a list comes for cleaning. We have never had so much ridged rules with accomodation before. It almost ruined the weekend Christmas celebrations.
