Description from owner
Description
Fifth Ave Katoomba Retreat sits on 1000 square metres with a backdrop to the beautiful Blue Mountains National Reserve and Minni HaHa Falls (all grades bush walk) down the street. It provides a relaxing space for 8 people where you will experience that 'ahhh' moment instantly. All major tourist attractions are within five to ten minutes drive. Or take a quick ride into town by public bus from the top of our street.
You can also park your car at Katoomba Train Station and catch the Hop On Hop Off buses taking you through the picturesque villages of Leura and Katoomba, a great day experience. There are also trips to the world famous Jenolan Caves so you don't have to worry about finding your way there.
Owner operated and maintained, our place is suitable for small groups and the perfect family accommodation with holiday house essentials and little luxuries like shaving mirrors, bath salts, fluffy towels and hotel quality linen – encouraging you to unwind so you focus on time together. It's not too big for couples either.
On check out we entice you to sleep in to recharge your mind and body. Take your time, soak in the view from the deck and breathe in fresh mountain air. The only exception to this is when we have back to back bookings where check out will be at 11am.
Whether you're visiting the Blue Mountains for school holidays with the family, Girls Pampering experience, bushwalking & Ultra Trail or any Special Event, let us know so we can personalise your stay with us. There’s certainly no shortage of things to do in this beautiful World Heritage Listed area of Australia – including our cooking classes! See our website, Google or Tripadvisor for reviews on our accommodation and hospitality.

“Homely and warm”
Very homely and warm feel to this home. Big enough to entertain with friends and a cozy heater to warm the house up. Lovely beds and fresh sheets. Gorgeous.

Response from the owner Thank you LindakC955DM for your comprehensive review. Our aim is to not only give participants some new skills to take home but to experience part of our culture which we can often take for granted but others remark how welcoming it makes them feel. Sharing good food and good company is good for the soul - and of course the taste buds!!! We’re looking forward to sharing more of our classes with you Silvana

Response from the owner Hi Debbie I’m so glad to hear you and your family had a break that was enjoyable and relaxing despite the rain. The beauty of the Blue Mountains is that there is always something you can do regardless of the weather (except see the glorious vistas when it’s overcast!!). I hope we can accommodate you again so you also experience more outdoor activities. A great time to keep in mind is Sculpture at Scenic World held annually in April to May. It has something for everyone - walks along Jurassic Forest paths, art and creativity, adventure in the world’s steepest railway or Skyway. Take care Silvana Franze Fifth Ave Katoomba Retreat

Response from the owner Thank you BennyBlancomcr It sounds like you had an amazing stay with your group! We appreciate your time in writing such a great review.
