CAMELLIA COTTAGE. The Gardener’s Retreat. Pet Friendly.

20 minutes stroll, behind Wentworth Falls Village, you will find Camellia Cottage. The Cottage is personally cleaned and maintained by ourselves between every stay. This is to keep it to the highest standard possible. Cottage is nestled into beautiful gardens, which always have something in bloom.

Free wifi throughout house, code in guest information booklet. Gas cooktop, electric oven and gas instant hot water. There are many heating options. A slow combustion fire, (please note that fireplace is closed from 1st November til 1st April as the Mountains is a high bushfire zone) gas heating, reverse cycle air con, also individual blow heaters in the bedroom robes.
Linen and towels are provided as well as shampoo/conditioner, soaps, toilet paper, etc.
The back of the property is secure and fully fenced, so great for your 4 legged friend. Limit of 2 dogs. Please seek permission for dog when booking.
Keys are available from a lockbox. We will text code to you the evening before your arrival. Strictly no parties and only booked in guests may stay on property.
Wentworth Falls is the gateway of the Upper Blue Mountains. The village is a step back in time with gorgeous speciality gift shops, interesting antique shops, some of the yummiest cafes and restaurants, also an award winning bakery. Sinclair Crescent hosts the beautiful Wentworth Falls lake. BBQ facilities, playground, amenities are all there for the perfect picnic. Put on your hiking boots and cross GWH to take in the picturesque Wentworth Falls and maybe walk the Charles Darwin Walk.
Only minutes up the GWH to Leura for boutique shopping and open gardens. On to Katoomba to check out the 3 Sisters and other scenic high lights. Maybe prebook the Scenic World for some breathtaking views (scenicworld.com.au). High tea at the Hydro Majestic (hydromajestic.com.au) is beautiful as is the scenery overlooking The Megalong Valley. Up to Blackheath for Antique shops and on to Mt Victoria. So much to see.
But always lovely to come back in evening to Camellia Cottage to peace and quiet. The backyard is perfect for bird watching. You will find binoculars and an Australian bird book to identify our feathered friends. Share wine and nibbles by the fire in winter or chill out in air conditioned comfort during summer. Don’t forget the steaks to put on the natural gas BBQ tonight ... then a nice radox bath before bed. Perfect.

Beautiful Blue Mountains Cottage
We had a wonderful stay at this property to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary (with our 2 Cavoodles in tow). The home is beautifully decorated and thoughtfully appointed by its owners Julie and Barry with everything you could possibly need to make your stay relaxing and stress-free. The complimentary hamper was an extra touch which was very warmly received. Wentworth Falls is a peaceful spot with its own shopping area and is in close proximity to Leura and Katoomba. We loved walking around the local area with our dogs (who also had a brilliant time exploring the fully enclosed and pet safe back garden). Thank you Julie and Barry, we can’t wait to stay with you again!

A cosy and tranquil place to relax and recharge
Camellia Cottage was such a cosy and tranquil place to relax and recharge. The home was beautifully decorated and was complete with everything you think you might need and a welcome hamper was a nice touch. Plenty of pillows and blankets with comfortable sheets and electric blankets for the chilly nights. The area was quiet with lots of beautiful trees and flowers and plenty of bird calls. My favourite part was relaxing with a cuppa in the morning sun in the beautiful big windows which let in plenty of warmth and light. We truely loved this place!

Winter Home away from Home
Our family of five loved this home for its coziness, space and amenities. The beds and lounges were comfy right next to the lovely fire. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped, one of the best properties I have experienced for this, including a slow cooker, which we used. It was the perfect space for us to base our winter getaway and felt so homely. Julie our host was very communicative and helpful with local suggestions and prompt responses. All of us would thoroughly recommend staying here and we will be back.

Outstanding rental!
This is the best holiday rental we've ever had the pleasure to stay in. That's not hyperbole; the cottage was comfortable, located in a beautiful town, in our favorite area of NSW. We did most of our own cooking, and the kitchen was even better equipped than our kitchen at home. We can't recommend this cottage enough! If we ever have the pleasure of visiting that area of the world again, we hope that we can stay there again!

Cozy and relaxing winter stay at Camellia Cottage
We enjoyed staying at Camellia Cottage for the weekend. As it is was chilly weekend, we loved the fireplace and the electric blankets. The surroundings are quiet and beautiful and the the cottage is located within walking distance from the Wentworth Falls cafes and bushwalks. The cottage is very well equipped, with everything we could ask for. We are already looking forward to coming back in the near future!

A true pet friendly gem for pets who think they are human
What a delight it was to stay at Camellia Cottage. We've finally come across a true pet friendly accommodation that is comfortable for the entire family including the spoilt four-legged ones. The hosts were welcoming, thoughtful and organized. A great getaway for the weekend if planning on taking your pets on some of the best dog walks in the blue mountains.

This is our second stay at Camellia cottage. It is a perfect getaway for your family and fur babies. It’s clean and well kept and you have everything you need for a comfortable stay. The backyard is completely fenced and is perfect for your dogs. The hosts communicate really well and also throw in some nice little extras for you to enjoy. The beds are comfy and the fireplace is all set to go.

Cottage at Wentworth Falls
We enjoyed a peaceful, comfortable and relaxing stay. Wonderful to watch the local birdlife in our back garden as the King parrots and Crimson rosellas fed on the evergreen dogwood. Our evening strolls in the neighbourhood streets were a pleasant way to end the day. Our host provided us with supplies on arrival which was a great help.

We had a great time staying at this beautifully maintained property. Comfy beds, a lovely claw foot bath to relax in a great kitchen, and close to a lake where we could walk our dogs. The owner was super easy to deal with! We thoroughly enjoyed it and will stay here again. The property is dog friendly so we took our two hounds.
