Reviews
Highly recommended!
Samantha King - 23rd October 2023Postcards was perfect in every way. Such a beautiful, peaceful location
We loved the house.
Judith - 31st July 2023We did enjoy our stay, the fabulous house and location"
Excellent property and Staff
Eric Pinson - 31st October 2019Property was excellent as was Blue Mountains Escapes staff. Top marks to the staff.
Breathtaking!
Marcello Tuteri - 14th July 2019A beautiful home in a picturesque setting. Breathtaking!
Uninterrupted views at the perfect mountain retreat!
Geoff Kendall - 28th February 2019What a perfect Mountain retreat! Close to stunning walks and scenic vistas, this fabulous house also has uninterrupted views over bushland from all rooms. The two fireplaces make it very atmospheric - we will certainly be back in the Winter for a Christmas in July or other such event. Although we were perfectly happy to stay in the house for meals, a short walk to Blackheath shops provides an ample selection of drinking and dining options. The residents of the Mountains are a lot friendlier than City dwellers! All in all we had a fantastic time and will be back again soon. Thanks Blue Mountain Escapes!
Peaceful, outstanding property, we'll be back!
Gareth Gumbley - 24th February 2019An outstanding property, set on the edge of the bush. The pictures did not do it justice and it was so peaceful. It was also really well presented. We will be back! Thank you so much!
