From the owner

Fifth Ave Katoomba Retreat sits on 1000 square metres with a backdrop to the beautiful Blue Mountains National Reserve and Minni HaHa Falls (all grades bush walk) down the street. It provides a relaxing space for 8 people where you will experience that 'ahhh' moment instantly. All major tourist attractions are within five to ten minutes drive. Or take a quick ride into town by public bus from the top of our street.

You can also park your car at Katoomba Train Station and catch the Hop On Hop Off buses taking you through the picturesque villages of Leura and Katoomba, a great day experience. There are also trips to the world famous Jenolan Caves so you don't have to worry about finding your way there.

Owner operated and maintained, our place is suitable for small groups and the perfect family accommodation with holiday house essentials and little luxuries like shaving mirrors, bath salts, fluffy towels and hotel quality linen – encouraging you to unwind so you focus on time together. It's not too big for couples either.

On check out we entice you to sleep in to recharge your mind and body. Take your time, soak in the view from the deck and breathe in fresh mountain air. The only exception to this is when we have back to back bookings where check out will be at 11am.

Whether you're visiting the Blue Mountains for school holidays with the family, Girls Pampering experience, bushwalking & Ultra Trail or any Special Event, let us know so we can personalise your stay with us. There’s certainly no shortage of things to do in this beautiful World Heritage Listed area of Australia – including our cooking classes! See our website, Google or Tripadvisor for reviews on our accommodation and hospitality.

Very homely and warm feel to this home. Big enough to entertain with friends and a cozy heater to warm the house up. Lovely beds and fresh sheets. Gorgeous.

Thank you LindakC955DM for your comprehensive review. Our aim is to not only give participants some new skills to take home but to experience part of our culture which we can often take for granted but others remark how welcoming it makes them feel. Sharing good food and good company is good for the soul - and of course the taste buds!!! We’re looking forward to sharing more of our classes with you Silvana

Lovely cosy home perfect for a family get away

While the location is picturesque and so much to see and do, it is equally as nice to stay in and enjoy a homely feel.

Response from the owner

Thank you Jeannette, that's exactly how I feel when I'm there (wish I could actually live there!!) It's a great base to explore the area from, and a home to come back to afterwards. We look forward to accommodating you again.
