- Roger (7/5): Good -
- Clement (9/5): Superb - Old world charm
- David (8/5): Very good -
- Christina (8/5): Well equiped character filled comfortable cottage - Cosy cottage, very well equiped kitchen, comfy beds and the teenagers loved the board games Nothing
- Yerchan (10/5): Excellent - The history of the house, that's been kept and presented perfectly.
The feeling that used to be/maybe still is a warm family home.
Clean and everything needed was available.
- Margaret (9/5): A lovely family break in a beautiful location. Close to the town - A unique property. Quaint and full of character Nothing
- Robyn (9/5): We all liked staying at Idlehour the house & back yard & amenities were great & very central. - good location, inside house all good,, we appreciated the quick heating, the kitchen was well supplied, the
, far reaching views were great. the smoke detector in the front hallway went off ringing during the night. There was no apparent reason for this to happen
The mattress in the 'pink' room sagged in the middle, otherwise soft & comfortable.
The shower could not be used in the main bathroom
We noticed white ant activity in the outside timber walls. As we have had white ants do considerable damage in the past to our home it ca be a very real problem. We would like Idlehour to be there for a lot longer.
- Paul (8/5): Very good - Unfortunately there was insufficient wood for the fire & we had to purchase our own wood. For the price we paid all the fire wood should have been supplied
- Phillip (8/5): Great location, lovely old property - Fantastic location close to all the shops excellent views Only one shower and not much bench space or hooks for your clothes towels
- Catherine (8/5): Super comfy, family friendly and perfect for a long weekend! - The central heating was warm and made the weekend really comfortable. The kitchen was really well stocked with equipment. Beds were really comfy! At a pinch, I’d say it would have been great to have better kitchen knives. And the firewood left was a bit damp so it wouldn’t catch. But these are nitpicking items!
- Hughes (8/5): Very good - Nice bedrooms and lounge, good location with a short walk into the town The shower is in the older of the 2 bathrooms. Would have liked the shower to be in the newer bathroom
- Vicki (8/5): Cute cosy and. - Supply kindling for fire place would have been good

- Lyn (10/5): Great week weather perfect all four days. Then misty rainy and cold on the day we left how lucky we - We had wonderful weather . House. Was very comfortable and cozy everything we needed was there very good little house Can’t think of anything to improve on
- Francis (6/5): Pleasant - Location, quiet and plenty of room. Agent responded to a plumbing issue promptly, and was good with communication. Bed old and roll into the middle. Had a mattress topper that was soft and comfortable, however not good when rolling into the middle when sharing the bed. Strange booking in system as requested to send photo of license and credit card including cvc to enable identification and $200 bond. I refused and the agent was responsive with alternative arrangement to attend the office. Clearly sending photos of above details is a security issue in my humble opinion.
- Rebecca (10/5): Stunning views, complete comfort, will be back. - Easy to collect keys, views from windows were stunning! Plenty of space for family members to chill.
- Laurence (10/5): Exceptional -
- Edina (9/5): Superb - The character and size of cottage, level of cleanliness, great location, comfort and cosiness of home (especially the dining area and lounge room). The garden is beautiful too. We loved it. We just couldn't connect to the Wi-Fi.
- Maree (9/5): Superb - location was great and only a quick walk into town. We liked all the little extras in the pantry and kitchen which made it feel like home. The beds were super comfy, the place was clean and quiet. Central heating was a blessing for a cold windy weekend. Should have had a shower installed in main bathroom rather than just the one in the laundry bathroom.
- Leigh (9/5): had a great stay. highly recommend staying here - very family oriented, warm and a good location
- Jo (9/5): Famtastic place to stay in the mountains. - Excellent location, walking distance to Katoomba’s Main Street. Also a very comfortable place to stay. Appreciated being offered a late checkout. The gardens could do with some work.
