- Ilona (10/5): An Absolutely Charming and Intimate Escape at Selby Cottage! - My partner and I recently had the pleasure of staying at Selby Cottage in Katoomba, and it was everything we hoped for and more. From the moment we arrived, we were struck by how incredibly cozy, warm, and welcoming the cottage felt – it instantly put us at ease and set the perfect tone for a relaxing getaway.
The design of the cottage is truly gorgeous and very stylish, blending comfort with elegance seamlessly. We particularly loved the beautiful kitchen, which was not only fully equipped with everything you could possibly need, but also a joy to cook in. It made preparing meals together an absolute delight.
Outside, the garden is simply stunning and meticulously well-maintained. It's a serene oasis perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or an evening drink. A truly memorable highlight was our lovely visitor, Mr. Possum, who made an appearance at night – a delightful touch of nature right at our doorstep!
Selby Cottage is undoubtedly a perfect choice if you're looking for an intimate and private time with your partner. It truly fosters connection and relaxation. We can't recommend it highly enough and are already dreaming of our next visit.

- Janine (10/5): Excellent location with everything you need - Excellent!
We really enjoyed our brief stay. The cottage is spotless, well equipped and easy walking distance to the local shops and tourist attractions. Nothing
- Lin (9/5): - Great location
Well presented
Enjoyed
- Bernadette (9/5): Excellent accommodation for a Blue Mountains holiday - Spacious well equipped kitchen and bathroom with laundry facilities. Very close to walks, located in a quiet street. The TV remote was confusing 🫤
- Rob (9/5): Fabulous, clean, very comfortable accommodation for a weekend in the Blue Mountains. - Beautiful, very clean, well equipped cottage in a very quiet location. The bathroom and kitchen were gorgeous. Wish we could have stayed longer. N/A
- Jeremy (9/5): - Very accommodating owners. Excellent location near Scenic World and Echo Point. We had a lovely stay, thank you

- Andrew (10/5): Fabulous in every way -
- Peter (9/5): -
- Katie (10/5): Perfect weekend stay in the blue mountains - Perfect location, beautifully cleaned and perfect for a weekend getaway!
- Kirsty (10/5): We loved everything about the cottage. - It was quiet and private. Had everything we needed. Beautifully decorated. Modern and clean.
- Liam (9/5): Superb -
- Debra (6/5): Very pleasant and once we warmed up, was a comfortable stay. - Very quiet area and private. Recliner lounge was very inviting and comfortable to relax whilst watching Netflix etc. Super clean and the bedding was fresh and we slept soundly. It would have been lovely to walk in to a warm house for immediate comfort. Instead we wee met with a cold house that took some time to heat up with the ducted aircon. Probably just us boomers, but we could not find the way to watch general TV channels! It always amazes me when Airbnb hosts do not provide a bit of fresh milk, (or even those horrid longlife satches), for their guests to have a decent cuppa on arrival. Something so small can add so much.
- Mary (9/5): Superb -
- Tessie (10/5): Just fantastic, a beautiful place to relax and would definitely visit again. - Loved the property, just beautiful, relaxing and peaceful. Only recommendation would be to provide a milk frother to go with the coffee pod machine and consider supplying a box of tissues :) everything was perfect.
- Faizal (10/5): Clean cosy and quiet - Clean cosy and quiet. This was an excellent property to stay at in the Blue Mountains
- Melissa (10/5): Perfect homely stay - Perfect place to stay. Well designed with high quality fittings. Well presented. Coffee pods and machine was appreciated. Comfy bed. Great location. Easy access with door key code pad. Surrounded by leafy green gardens. Pillows all a bit on the high side. Check in at 3pm. Entry gates are narrow/tight for car.
- Schirle (10/5): A perfect location and very comfortable and modern - Everything was first class, good quality Nothing all great
- Anthony (9/5): Superb - The door code being hidden amongst lots of other useless (for me) emails from booking.com.
- Liam (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kellie (9/5): Selby Cottage is a great place to stay for those looking for a little home away from home. - Selby Cottage is exactly as it is portrayed. It is a beautiful, comfortable, well appointed cottage.
The cottage is beautifully decorated and kept immaculately clean. It is very spacious with indoor and outdoor areas for relaxing in. It felt very secure, a nice place for a get away.
The location is superb, very close to beautiful views over the Blue Mountains and also to the main street filled with shops and places to eat. Being on a side street it is very quiet. The bed, and bedroom, was clean, well appointed and had minimal noise but I found the double sized bed to be too small.
- Melissa (10/5): Adorable cottage, perfect getaway to visit the Blue Mountains - This property is spacious, incredibly clean, comfortable, and well decorated.

- Gabby (10/5): Perfect long weekend stay - It was perfect. Really cute cottage which was spotless and had everything you needed. Stocked with coffee / tea, laundry powder, bug spray etc. Quiet little street. Would stay again!
Note: the air con didn't seem to be working in the bedroon Nothing
- James (9/5): A lovely cottage in an ideal location - The cottage was perfect for us. Great location - just outside the main Katoomba centre but nice and close to Echo Point and other places of interest. The cottage was well equipped and clean. It felt modern, but still had a lovely rustic feel to it. Couldn’t fault it.
- Owen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Caitlyn (10/5): Exceptional - we loved the interior of the place, it was absolutely perfect for what we were after and even better we had our own space rather than a hotel room🤗 The only thing was that when we would watch tv and it was still light outside, even with the blinds closed the glare from behind the couch made it a little hard to see the tv at times. Only mentioning this to help with your future stays 🤗otherwise it was incredible x
- Joanne (9/5): Lovely - The cottage was warm and welcoming. Very clean and well maintained. The only criticism I have over all. It would have been good to have some milk, just enough to make a cup if tea....because we arrived later than
Amd the bed was a little soft.
- Nicole (10/5): this is a beautiful property and in a great location. - This place was amazing, loved it and would definitely stay again. Nothing!
- Robert (9/5): Great place. Great location. - Code. Easy ad.

- Marie (10/5): Awesome 3 night stay, would definitely stay again at Selby Cottage. Thankyou Jules for a memorable stay! - Gorgeous cottage with quality furnishings. It was very homely and comfortable, loved it!
Easy walk to Echo Point, 3 Sisters and Scenic World. Nothing.
- Narelle (9/5): Superb - This is a wonderful place to stay. Very comfortable, quiet and lots of attention to detail.
- Irene (10/5): Couples Getaway - I liked the older style cottage look that has been fully renovated & modernised. The high ceiling made the one bedroom cottage feel spacious. Liked the coffee pod machine. Bathroom/laundry had pretty old style tiles with modern lights, exhaust & heating. Nothing was unliked.
- Tatumn (10/5): Beautiful home, perfect for a quiet and cozy stay! - The flat was absolutely beautiful. Gorgeous newly renovated fixtures, easy to use, and everything was so clean! Jules was a lovely host and made everything so simple :) The back road to the home, and getting through the gate, was slightly weird to navigate, but this is such a minor problem. The house itself completely made up for the confusion on our end.
