We were visiting katoomba to see and tour the blue mountains. The house is a short walk from the train station and we walked all over town and took buses around the area. There is a Coles grocery store and liquor store a short walk from the house. The house is very spacious and full of period furniture and decorations that match its age. The kitchen does have upgraded appliances and was very well stocked to cook at home before and after a day of exploring. Michael was very responsive to any questions we had. We loved staying here.

We have been holidaying around Australia for many years. This is by far the best home we have experienced. Just so homely and so very comfortable. Michael is such a generous host and so helpful. The location is so peaceful and walking distance to town centre and eateries. Will definitely love to return to Burnie Brae again one day. Thanks a million Michael.

What a stunning property easy access, stunning grounds, so peaceful and quiet, close to the shops, clean neat and tidy. A central Place to stay. The gardens are beautiful. The kitchen is as perfect as the pictures beautiful to cook in too. There is anything you really need to pack other than a quick stop at the shop for food. We cooked all our meals and prepped our lunches, daily cheese platters, wine and chocolate it was amazing thank you

One of the best stays we have stayed at

Our stay at Burnie Brae was one of our best experiences we have experienced. The place was immaculate, warm, comfortable, all amenities easy to use making our experience hassel free and enjoyable. Upon leaving we noticed we had a flat tyre. It was cold, raining and miserable. We called the owner asking if we could go back into the property for warmth whilst waiting for NRMA. He was so hospitable, allowing us to re enter and keep warm for as long as we needed. We highly recommend this place. It was awesome. We will definitely go back. Organising our next stay there. Thank you!
