Other things to note
A little about me. Originally from the Yorkshire, England and have lived in Sydney for over eight years. I have always loved the mountains area especially as growing up in the Yorkshire Dales. The Blue Mountains means so much than that, it is a place where we feel totally relaxed, where we can escape the hustle and bustle of Sydney and enjoy a slower pace of life and enjoy the many walks of the Blue Mountains.

As soon as we saw Highside Cottage, fell in love with it. After much hard work, very excited to share it with you. We hope you feel completely comfortable here and enjoy it as much as we do.

A traditional, comfortable home from home.

We spent a fe ays in the Blue Mountains in the winter. The property was in a fantastic location and was lovely and warm. It was very clean and felt like a more traditional family home than a holiday rental, which is just what we wanted. I would highly recommend!
