Romantic Cozy Mountain Cottage - Blackheath

Escape the city in style with a uniquely memorable cottage stay in gorgeous Blackheath, the last bastion of true Blue Mountains village character!
Dalpura is a classic but modern cozy mountains cottage with a huge cathedral timber ceiling, gas fireplace, & loft bedroom with views of the Kanimbla valley.
Fantastic walks & lookouts direct from your doorstep! - Porters Pass, Fort Rock, Centennial Glenn, Grotto canyon.

NOTE: There is now a 1 day gap required between bookings for covid cleaning.

Complimentary wine awaits you upon arrival.

The entire property is yours to enjoy, with picnic table and BBQ in the backyard under enormous pine trees.

THE SPACE

If you are going to stay in the mountains, be sure to do it in classic mountains style!
Dalpura blends modern conveniences with that classic cathedral timber ceiling mountains cottage character.

Be greeted with views of the stunning Kanimbla valley at the end of the road as you drive in, you feel as though you are really on top of the blue mountains and adventure awaits. And indeed you are, as Blackheath is the highest village in the mountains, sometimes getting snow in winter time. And the dark clear night air is fantastic for star gazing.

If you are lucky you might even find yourself face to face with a kanagroo or echidna in the main street or local field around dawn or dusk.

Dalpura is the perfect place for a romantic couples getaway, but is very popular with small families or two couples. The cottage comfortably hosts four people in two bedrooms. We recommend only four guests maximum as there is only dining and seating for four.

The gorgeous large main loft bedroom with queen sized bed has that classic wooden mountains cottage feel about it.
The 2nd bedroom downstairs has a King sized bed that can be split into and made up into two king singles upon request after booking.
All beds have brand new super comfortable premium A.H.Beard Kingcoil mattresses.
Quilts are super warm 12 TOG thermal rating.

AMENITIES:
It may be a small cozy cottage but we haven't forgotten the modern conveniences:
There is a media room with a 60" Sony smart TV with Netflix, Disney+, Paramount+ and PrimeVideo accounts already set up for your enjoyment, along with a gigantic couples beanbag + sofa. Choose from thousands of adult or childrens programs.
Beware other places that provide outdated Austar or Foxtel (if anything).
Unlimited data direct WiFi or Ethernet 50Mb/20Mb NBN internet is provided.
to quickly get those photos and videos of your adventures uploaded!
Fast USB charger in the kitchen & media room for all your electronic toys.
Brand new high capacity reverse cycle air-conditioning in the main living area and loft bedroom heats and cools the space quickly and efficiently. One of the handful of places in Blackheath to have air-conditioning.
This complements the new modern gas fireplace, no messy and polluting wood to burn, just switch it on and sit back and relax.
Laundry with washing machine and ironing board.
Dishwasher and full size fridge in the fully equipped kitchen. Tea and hot chocolate provided.
The bathroom has a ceramic heater, and the shower is over the (small) bathtub. Hairdryer provided.

There is a new Beefeater BUGG BBQ on the outdoor patio for your cooking needs. It has a town natural gas connection so you'll never run out of gas.

Dalpura is our family mountains cottage retreat that we use as a base for all our mountaineering adventures with our two young boys, and we'd love for you to share this gorgeous place and experience all that the Blue Mountains has to offer!

GUEST ACCESS

A top quality baby carrier hiking backpack is provided, feel free to use it for your daily adventures with your little one! (or just as a hiking backpack). 20kg maximum.

There is a large fold out portable cot, sheets not provided, please BYO, and a baby change mat.

Access to the famous Porters Pass loop track is just a short walk, with walking distance to the stunning Grotto canyon and world class lookouts.
Take a bottle of wine to Fort Rock and watch the sun set over the Kanimbla valley!

The Grand Canyon, Govett's Leap, and the Rhododendron gardens are only a short drive away, as are many other classic Blackheath bushwalks and lookouts.
Blackheath is an ideal location to avoid the mainstream crowds at Katoomba, yet only a short drive to access many classic and stunning locations and activities.

The cottage is a short few minutes drive to the main street of Blackheath village, one of the last bastions of the classic Blue Mountains. The quaint shops, art galleries, and nice selection of cafe's and friendly laid back atmosphere will delight you. A strikingly different atmosphere to tourist focused Katoomba.

Blackheath is also a great base to visit Katoomba, Leura, Wentworth falls, and Mount Victoria. Jenolan Caves is only 1 hour away and can be done as a day trip.

lovely week staying at Dalpura Cottage
Nicole's cottage is one of those rare stays where you immediately feel you have been invited into the family home. Everything is there, clean & in good order. Location terrific, away from any tourist crowding and the sometimes noisy GWH. Certainly my best stay of several in Blackheath. Finally, Nicole is a great host.

Dalpura Serenity
We have stayed here 5 years ago and were looking forward to returning. It didn't disappoint! The newly renovated bathroom was a bonus. We just love Dalpura Cottage. It is such a beautiful place and we enjoy the surrounds. Only downfall is we couldn't access the school across for an easier walk to Fort Rock and enjoy the open fire as we had in the past. But we created new memories and loved every minute. Thanks Nicole for sharing your beautiful property. We will be back for sure. If you ever sell please let us know!

We loved everything about Dalpura cottage, and it made for a relaxing and enjoyable winter long weekend. The house had everything we needed - and was clean, warm and cozy and made a great base to get outside in the Blue Mountains.
