Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Liz W. 8 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A gem in the Blue Mountains We arrived on a cold day and on opening the door, we were welcomed into the beautifully warm and well appointed cottage. Such thoughtfulness was evident everywhere- from the welcome basket of food and wine, heated towel rails in the bathroom and the well equipped kitchen. We were able to self cater with ease and relax in the cottage - a home away from home. The cottage also has an incredibly comfortable bed and we slept really well. It was so nice to be able to walk round nearby Wentworth Lake on the walking paths. All in all, we had a lovely stay at Josephine’s Cottage. The hosts were excellent and replied promptly to any queries. I can highly recommend this cottage if you want something a bit special in the Blue Mountains. ##### Liz W. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael G. 2 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent place to stay This is our second time stay in Josephine's Cottage, there are reasons we love this place: the cottage has a full equipped kitchen, the place is very clean, bright and beautiful, the comfortable bed allows us to sleep very well during the chilly nights when we were there, excellent entertainment like Netflix TV so we can enjoy and relax in the evening. The cottage also in a great location for walking, peaceful neighborhood area, very pleasant walk to Wentworth Falls Lake and shops. Digital keypad entry was super easy to use and aided greatly in access, the owner are really kind and generous, we didn't meet in person, but the communication was really clear, we could feel the warmness from the owner by the provision: the fresh bread, wine, sweets and cheese, the essentials were provided, what else do we need? highly recommend Josephine's Cottage for people who would like to have a great get away in the Blue Mountains. Thank you Louise and Mark for everything! ##### Michael G. Stayed 7 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth P. 18 Feb 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relax, Reflect, Rejuvenate This property was exceptionally nice, with easy access just up a few steps from driveway; and then the front floor to ceiling windows, and plenty more windows elsewhere were perfect - allowing lots of natural light, with views to the Aussie bush across the road and my dog appreciated the floor height windows to watch the passing parade of people. The bush and trees all about could be viewed right through from the kitchen and living room; and similarly, the ample sized TV located between the large two front windows. The shutters on other windows could be fully opened to make it an extremely positive environment inside, especially with all of the white upholstery. It was beautiful in the mist. I missed having no outside area in which to sit - either a deck or courtyard type area, but the splendid interior setting made up for this. I was at a loss that there was no enclosure for the dog, so my dog was dependent on me taking him outside for a walk on a leash, each time he needed to toilet (he is 11 years old but not trainable to return when called!). This certainly got me up and moving on waking, as we would then go on about half hour walk to the shops or walk all the way around the lake, which is a magnificent setting, with a mixture of bush walk and paths. The kitchen was only very basically set up except for coffee machine, which was a treat for me - could do with some more utensils e.g. kitchen paper towels & champagne stopper (lucky I took my own of both), large bowls for fruit/salads, microwave cooking containers and storage containers. I needed to ask for hand washing up device and cloth to wipe down benches but owner was very helpful in providing these quickly. Another notable feature was how friendly people were - neighbours and many I met while out walking. I was on my own with just my dog and I did not feel isolated or lonely at all. The cottage and environment helped me to contemplate and renew my spirits to face life ahead. Many thanks to the owners for providing such a place. ##### Elizabeth P.

The location was excellent and we enjoyed walks through the small valley opposite and down to the park around the lake. Although we are up there age wise, the cottage provided a mush needed time to relax. ##### Rod F. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2022 ---
