The space
You will love Kedumba Cottage for its flexibility in accommodating family and friends alike. Three spacious bedrooms (two queen beds & the 3rd bedroom can be configured with two twin beds or a King bed), two bathrooms (two showers, one bath) and a Queen size sofa bed in the lounge area. (Next door is also an Airbnb that sleeps up to 6 guests - ask for link)
The lounge is spacious and stylish with plush rugs and mood lighting for your cosy nights in. During the cold winter nights you can enjoy a real fire (wood burner). One basket of wood is provided upon request. The 42" smart TV links to the wifi (for streaming) and local channels.
There is a large private deck area accessible for the lounge for outdoor dining (with a BBQ) as well as a small garden beyond.
The dining area between the lounge and kitchen has room for up to 8 people to enjoy a formal meal or for you to just hang around and play games (we provide some board games and cards for your enjoyment).
Heating: We have central heating throughout. A combustion wood fire in the lounge room. Electric blankets on the beds. And oil heaters in the bedrooms.
The kitchen is well stocked with pans/utensils for cooking home meals, with all the essentials you need to make you feel instantly at home (including a new coffee machine for those essential espresso/lattes)!
We stock kitchen cleaning products, basic supplies, pantry items and fresh tea towels.
Guest access
The entire home, front and rear decks and the small garden at the back.
Other things to note
NOTE: we do accept pets and charge an additional cleaning of $55. We ask that you don't let your pets on the sofas and beds. We also ask that pets are not left home alone, as a strange house can be distressing for your pet and our shared-wall neighbour.
Registration Details
PID-STRA-70626
Although we want you to have fun and feel at home, this is not a 'party house'.
Smoking is allowed in the outside spaces.
Please leave muddy boots/shoes in hallway shoe stand and wear house slippers if you have them.
Dogs are welcome but must be up to date with flea, worm treatment etc. and they are charged at $55 per stay.
Please be mindful (as there is a shared wall, front yard and backyard fence between the two houses):
- Aware when in the living room/kitchen area how loud you might be, especially if there is 6 of you and next door might only be 2 people
- Noise carries when sitting outside, especially on a still night
- No running (children or pets) up and down the hall as it can makes a lot of noise and echo disturbing next door
- Leaving your dog behind when you go out, they may become stressed and bark.
Also we want to know - your host (Lynn) lives next door and is always happy to help with any concerns or requests.
We are looking forward to welcoming you to Kedumba.
Check in is anytime after 3pm and check out is 11am.
We use a smart lock on the front door.
Your personal access code is the last four digits of your phone number.
On the door lock, press in your four digit code and then hit the bigger button (with writing, it's under the round disk) - you will hear the lock open.
Once inside you can turn the lock to close.
When leaving house anytime just press big button under 'round disk' to lock, best to hold the old knob to keep it firmly closed. You'll hear it close. We apologise for the 'door gymnastics' but its an beautiful old house.
In the house folder is information on house plus restaurants and cafes.
Below are directions to the house and parking information.
Please let me know when you have arrived, checked in and found everything you need.
During your stay let me know if I can help in anyway via here or mobile 0416615676
Kind regards
Lynn
**Parking and directions to Kedumba Cottage - 84 Waratah Street
Kedumba cottage is easy to find and located very close to the main street - restaurants, cafes, shops and supermarkets.
If driving from Sydney take the Great Western Highway until you get to Katoomba.
You will see the main turn into Katoomba on the left, at a set of lights with tourist signs for Scenic World and Echo Point. Turn left, go over the bridge and through the round-a-bout into Parke Street. Follow Parke Street until the t-intersection. Parke Street runs parallel to the main street.
Turn left at the t-intersection into Waratah Street. Continue on Waratah Street through the next round-a-about (Katoomba Street - main street). At the next intersection, Lurline Street you need to give way to traffic, turn right then immediately left into Waratah Street.
The house is on the left about 300 metres. It has a white picket fence and wooden gate arch.
The address is 84 Waratah Street.
Parking in this part of Waratah Street is un timed and free.
Upon arrival use your personal code on the electronic smart lock and press the bigger button under the disk.
Please keep the gate shut as I live in the adjoining property with my dog.
With the gate it does have a locking mechanism (pushing in button at latch) so take care not to lock it by mistake. We have left a key in the lock at the gate. There is a gate key hanging on the clothes hooks in the hallway (I have a spare). At this stage we are wanting to keep it unlocked, especially as both houses use the entrance.

Summary: We loved our stay at this property and were really appreciative of the care that Matt and Lynn took to make sure our stay was comfortable. We loved the convenience of being so close to cafes and pubs too. Highly recommended.
