Megalong Valley, home of the mill
Set on 17 acres, the Mill House is located in Megalong Valley, a beautiful 9km drive from the quaint village of Blackheath in the Upper Blue Mountains and 2 hours from Sydney. It is a character filled two story cottage, best suited to two couples or a couple with one or two children. This welcoming, tastefully decorated cottage provides everything to make a few days escape comfortable and memorable. Plush comfy beds entice you to take advantage of the escarpment views in the king room and mountain views in the queen room, a relaxing way to begin each day. (Please note the king bed can also be made up as 2 king singles.). Day night roller blinds give you the perfect opportunity to make the most of a lie in, or a well deserved afternoon nap. The inviting lounge area leads onto three outside sitting areas, all of which take advantage of mountain views and native wildlife. The front verandah provides the perfect place to take in the mountain view while lounging with a cuppa or a drink, or dining with family and friends. Sink into comfy chairs in front of an open wood fire on chilly nights on the covered rear verandah or cool off under the ceiling fan while alfresco dining in warmer weather. Feel at home cooking up a feast in the large well equiped kitchen, while family and friends chat around the intimate rustic dining table. Children, and big kids, can have a bit of fun with totem tennis, quoits and skittles, along with giant noughts and crosses, giant pick up sticks and hopscotch. For indoor activities, there is a selection of board games and cards. Being a 2 minute walk from the iconic Megalong tea rooms and 25 minutes drive to Katoomba and all it's sights, the Mill House offers the perfect getaway for those wanting to relax or explore the valley and surrounding areas and towns.

This house is the most gorgeous little home! Super clean, and cozy - the photos actually don’t do it justice. To top it off, the host Jill is an absolute angel and even baked some treaties for our arrival. Would love to come again soon.
Well appointed house on a gorgeous block of land. We absolutely loved our stay here and would stay again. The house has everything you need and the surrounding yard is huge and beautiful. Lovely bird song and we even saw a kangaroo.
The Mill House is the most perfect place to recharge and enjoy the spectacular Megalong Valley views. Thank you to Jill for ensuring our stay was enjoyable, a thoughtful card, homemade slide and good local recommendations. The home is beautiful, and ample outdoor sitting areas to enjoy the sun throughout the day. A stay at the Mill House coupled with dinner at Lot 101 is the best experience in Australia. We will be back soon.
Had such a lovely weekend at the Millhouse. The property is beautiful, we were greeted with a plate of homemade hedgehog slice that was delightful and also early check in. Can't recommend enough! Thanks for a great weekend!
Great time in Megalong Valley where I would take my kids every year in the winter when they were young. Mill House was better than perfect for family trip with 20 month old granddaughter and kids. Jenny & Mark are great hosts
House was clean and well equipped. Has everything you need. House is on a beautiful property. We had a great time. Thanks Jill!

Loved the isolation and the quiet outlook.The beautiful house was fully equipped with everything we needed. Hosts were very helpful, we appreciated the early check in and late check out. Would definitely recommend this property to everyone.
We enjoyed a relaxing stay in the Megalong Valley with the intention of a long lunch at Lot 101 farm to table restaurant and to test the scones at the Megalong Valley Tea rooms. Loved our stay at the Mill House which is well equipped and comfortable. We enjoyed sitting in front of the outside fire place and the home made slice kindly left for our enjoyment by our host Jill. Make sure you check out the Lot 101 restaurant, you won’t be disappointed. We also enjoyed the zig Zag railway steam train ride near Lithgow.
Ideal to kick back and relax. Away from the hustle and bustle but close enough if you want to be involved. Close to wineries and walking tracks.
Plenty of space and games to keep the children occupied.
Already planning a return visit.
The Mill House was the perfect escape! The property was stunning, and the house was cozy, quiet, and well-equipped, with plenty of outdoor space, including an outdoor fireplace for making homemade pizzas. There were plenty of things to do around the property and the local area. Jill and Mark were great hosts; they were easy to communicate with, and the early check-in/late check-out and delicious homemade hedgehog slices on arrival were lovely. Thanks for having us!

Absolutely loved our stay at “The Mill House” in Megalong Valley.
Excellent communication from the host Jill.
The property and house are well maintained and very clean. Also beautifully styled with country charm.
House has all the creature comforts you could ask for. Perfect for a family of four.
Loved the outdoor fire place and we made use of the BBQ. Lots of sitting areas to make use of the views and relax in the sunshine or shade if you prefer.
Kids loved the lawn games and exploring the property.
Stunning views, easy walk to the cafe at the Megalong Tea House and a great quiet base for a blue mountains weekend away.
Would highly recommend and can’t fault anything about our stay.
We had a fabulous stay at the Mill House. This accommodation has everything you could possibly need for a relaxing stay. A fully equipped kitchen with all that you need, comfortable beds and so many choices of where to sit outside and relax. The outdoor fire was fantastic to relax with a glass of red and listen to music. Jill and Mark were lovely hosts and easy to correspond with. As others have mentioned, the welcome slice was well received as was the bottle of bubbles for my birthday. Such thoughtful touches to make you feel welcome. Thank you for allowing us to stay in the Mill House. We had a great time.
Everything about this stay was just perfect! The house itself is beautiful and has everything you could need or want, the surroundings are wonderful & peaceful, the host Jill is incredibly helpful and very responsive.
Everything was prepared beautifully on our arrival. The house was very clean and our hosts were only a phone call away if needed. Very peaceful and pleasant experience. Would not hesitate to return.
What a great place to relax! Amazing views and plenty of choices to sit and take in nature. The host has thought of everything and the house was spotless. Highly recommended
