About this apartment rental
The clean, peaceful and cosy self-contained flat in north Katoomba backs onto bushland and is a private space surrounded by beautiful gardens on the lower floor of the main house. There is a kitchenette, shower, toilet and bathroom sink in one room, the main room has bed, dining area, sitting area, TV and fireplace, and another small room can be used as a store room. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, and nature-lovers. Spectacular Minnehaha Falls reservation is just down the road.
The space
Ideally you would need a car for your visit, and we are about 7 minutes drive from Katoomba town centre. The 697 bus runs from there to here, and a taxi from the station costs about $15, but I can also pick you up and drop you off whenever possible.
Set in beautiful grounds, the flat has views from the terraced garden into the bush, and has its own entrance off a paved flower garden. It also has a rear entrance onto a private courtyard with a small deck and seating.
In summer the flat stays nice and cool on hot days. However we do get a real winter and it can get quite cold here in the mountains, so always come prepared with warm clothing! The flat is cosy, with heating, and the bed has an electric blanket .
There is a large TV (which does have a red line through the screen, but this is not very noticeable after a while) and there is wireless internet if you bring a laptop. No smoking indoors, but you are welcome to smoke outside using the ash tray provided.
There is also a small single sofa bed for an extra guest if needed. N.B. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IN ADVANCE IF YOU NEED THIS MADE UP. Extra guests after 2 are charged $50 per night and I also charge this if just 2 guests, and 1 needs the sofa bed.
Please note, the flat is not recommended for young children.
Please also note there is NO HOT TUB (as detailed above)
Guest access
There are several sets of steps to get to the flat (generally 3-4 steps in each flight), without hand rails, so not suitable for the elderly or disabled to easily access. Access around the side of the main house , and is lit after dark. However you may also need the torch on your phone, or the torch provided for you in the flat.The steps down to the fire-pit on the bottom terrace are also lit.
Other things to note
There are teas and coffee, long-life milk, cereal, spreads, and bread in freezer.

Beautiful location. Clean and cosy. Everything we needed. Bed was comfortable. Prompt communication from host. Thanks Edwina for a lovely stay. The cafe nearby was also fantastic for breakfast.

The flat is in a nice quiet part of Katoomba. Edwina stressed about the steps down to the property but we didn't find them a problem. There was also an alternative route with less steps which we used when transporting our luggage. The flat is big with plenty of space and a large comfortable bed. There was everything that we needed there, even a washing machine. Edwina was a very pleasant host.
