Evenstar cottage was almost perfect! It is situated in a most gorgeous Blue Mountains garden that is about to burst into masses of blooms. A cute blue cottage with equally attractive decor. Very quiet but easy to find. Super cosy. Fire laid in the grate ready to go. Underfloor heating in bathroom much appreciated in chilly morning. Everything you’d want in the little kitchen area but no oven or hotplate ( there is a big electric frypan so you can do a big breakfast &, if you wanted to, cook a roast with all the trimmings in it)Hiwever, its the little extras. The oil diffuser was on when I arrived and the place smelt lovely. Plenty of oils available to choose from to your mood. Lavender toiletries in the bathroom & towelling gowns. Lots of rugs and cushions & an inviting little table & chairs on the wooden front deck which was sundrenched when I arrived & I had more than one cup of tea out there in the sun. Lots of teas to choose from, a coffee machine that looks fancy, hot chocolate & marshmallows. Cute cosy on the teapot too. I ate at Ates, a very cool venue on main street. Delicious food. I also reccomend Megalong Tea Rooms, not far away actoss the railway, for breakfast, devonshire teas or lunch. I walked the Grand Canyon Track from Evans Head, a short drive away. Just beautiful!Blackheath is only a short trip to Katoomba & Leura and I think is the nicer town to stay in as it has more old fashioned charm. Will be back!!
even I could start the fire!

Great little get away

I've stayed at Evenstar multiple times and always love our stay. It's a cosy granny flat that is well equipped for you to relax for a few days or use as a base to explore the area. Olwen keeps the house well maintained and stocked. Plenty of essential oil products to use, great coffee machine with beans. Kitchen is stocked with all sorts of tea and coffee. Plenty of cushions and blankets to really cosy up. Fire wood provided for the first night so you don't need to think, just light a fire and relax. I love staying here and long forward to the next stay.

Ideal Blue Mountains Hideaway

Really well-maintained cottage with everything for a comfortable stay. Close to a wedding venue which we attended. It was perfect for our 3-night stay. Not quite cold enough for us to light the log fire, though the mist and rain made it very tempting.

A comfortable cottage was updated and is even more comfortable this time. The new bathroom is a stunner. The setting is just beautiful and walking distance to cafés and shops. We'll come again for sure. Next time in winter to get the fire going.

Charm, comfort and convenience

Evenstar is a delightful, classic Blue Mountains studio cottage, set in a beautiful garden. It is close to the village but down a quiet street. It has luxuries, such as a spa bath, and a slow combustion fire, but also has conveniences such as a "walk in" shower and excellent electric heating.
