Burnie Brae
Lovely old property, beautifully restored. Quiet street. We were very comfortable. Draw string for the curtains in one of the bedrooms was broken which made opening/closing the curtains in that room difficult. We would stay there again without any hesitation..

Amazing
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

A gorgeous house in a prime location
We feel quite privileged to have been able to stay in such a beautiful Federation house, complete with period decor and furnishings. The bathroom is fabulous. The kitchen is huge and has a very usable gas cook top plus oven. The bedrooms divine with very comfortable beds. The lounge is luxurious. The formal dining room exquisite (although we didn't use it but ate in the kitchen). Beautiful, well kept and interesting gardens. An easy walk from the house through to the main street. WiFi very strong.

Absolutely gorgeous!
It was a pleasure to stay at Burnie Brae. It was even more beautiful than the photos, inside and out. It was clean and comfortable, and in a convenient and quiet location. Michael was helpful and communicative. I would certainly recommend it and hope to stay again next time we go to the mountains.

Pretty , peaceful and convenient
Not our first stay here . Burnie brae is truly the perfect location, it’s a very short walk to bars ,supermarket and restaurants and an evening cocktail at the Carrington . The property is lovely and very comfortable. For being so close to town , it is super quiet. We will definitely be back again

Home away from home
Loved everything about this home, decorated so beautifully. Katoomba centre and Dan Murphy’s are within walking distance, as are Restaurants, Cafes, Big W, Woolworths, and Aldi are also close by. If you’re planning on purchasing a lot of groceries, it maybe best to take your car. I particularly liked that this home is in a very quiet neighbourhood, have not slept this well in a long time. Would have no hesitation in recommending Burnie Brae, if we are lucky enough to return one day, we would definitely stay again.
