Restored 1940's Holiday Flat

For your added security, this property is only managed in Australia and we never request payments be made to overseas bank accounts

A recently restored 1940s holiday flat one block from The 3 Sisters, Echo Point and the Prince Henry Cliff Walk.

It has polished hardwood floors, a restored kitchen and bathroom and Mid 20th Century Modern details and furnishings. Sun fills the space during the daytime and a beautiful 'Eco Smart' open fireplace keeps it cosy in the evening.

The property lives up to its title of "Restored 1940's Holiday Flat". It was super cosy and the heater surprisingly warm despite the heavy cloud and low temperatures outside. Just perfect.

Cool Retro Unit, Blue Mountains
Cool Authentic Retro Unit for fun short stay in Katoomba. Funny to see the technology driven teenage kid’s reaction to the 50s decor of this great unit. Location was short walk to 3 Sisters info centre and walking/hiking trails. Located just the right distance from the hustle of the Katoomba town centre. Self sufficient accommodation with all the necessary amenities, good wifi.

Warm comfortable space for a lovely getaway
Hi, Spent two nights with my paramour in this wonderful space. Even though it was cold and miserable outside the fireplace kept the home warm and the heaters in the bedroom took the edge off. The only small issue was the amount of hot water,. Even economic use sees it deplete far too quickly.... Highly recommended for a romantic weekend away. .

Lovely cottage in the mountains
We stayed for two nights whilst taking in the scenery of Katoomba. The cottage is a step back in time and tastefully styled. All the basic comforts you would expect are provided and the location is perfect for accessing walking tracks without having to drive. We recommend this property, it was lovely.

Wonderful Experience
This is a lovely property a stone's throw away from Three Sisters. A well appointed apartment in which we were very comfortable. We would highly recommend it to anyone. Tracey, the owner, went out of her way to meet our needs, including posting some things that we left behind back to us.

Wonderful and relaxing!
We loved our stay here. It was so close to everything and the feeling of the cottage is relaxing and warm. Everything is there to make your stay comfortable including games, puzzles and DVDs which our two girls enjoyed. It is clean, beautifully renovated with awesome detail in furniture and lighting. Loved the light filled rooms and comfortable beds. Would highly recommend to everybody!

Charming, sun-filled,cosy and quiet.
We really enjoyed staying in the thoughtfully restored apartment. The street is quiet, and the rooms get sun most of the day. It was still much appreciated having so many heating options, we felt cosy at all times. We would love to return.

Great lil house
We really enjoyed our stay at this Restored 50's flat. We stayed here with our 2 girls- 2 and 4 years and found it to be a very comfy little sunny home. We could warm up the place easily although may need to be careful with young kids if using the fire which we did need on at night to warm up the place. It is so close to the three sisters!

Very Enjoyable
I stayed here with my husband and three year old over the Easter weekend. We just loved this holiday rental. Although it is listed as an apartment it really feels like a small house as it has its own private garden and we didn't really notice the neighbours. It has been beautifully renovated and filled with stylish designer furniture from the 1950s and 60s. It was spotlessly clean and thoughtfully appointed. There is a fully equipped kitchen and the beds are really comfortable. The turntable and record collection was lots of fun and the eco fireplace created a lovely atmosphere. It is also in a great location, a few minutes walk from Echo Point and various bushwalks. There is also a nice bar at the end of the street for those not inclined to be outdoors.

Comfortable and we'll equipped
Really nice little getaway in a secluded spot. Decor is as advertised and for a few minutes the sensory overload and feeling you've just stepped into your aging mothers house that hasn't seen a new piece of furniture for 50 years can be a bit overwhelming but it quickly subsides and it's all just cosy and comfortable with everything you need for a weekend away or a week hiking the trails. We'll done guys!

Excellent Flat
Spent 3 nights in this flat and it was fantastic. Four minute walk to the Three Sisters who could ask for more. The Flat was super clean and the beds were comfy. Loved the Retro nature of the flat. The what to do and where to eat information provided by the owners were spot on. There was a great selection of DVD's and some very cool vinyl records. I would stay here again for sure.
