HOUSE DETAILS
The Waterhouse is an elegant, architecturally designed retreat, curated with many of my own cherished belongings and styled as a true home rather than a conventional holiday rental. It offers a warm, refined atmosphere ideal for couples or small groups seeking a peaceful and restorative escape. The open-plan, split-level design features a fully equipped kitchen and inviting indoor–outdoor spaces, perfect for candlelit dinners and relaxed evenings by the BBQ.
Please note, The Waterhouse is not suitable for parties, and we ask that guests respect the quiet nature of the neighbourhood.
Sleeping arrangements:
The upstairs mezzanine bedroom features a king bed and overlooks the living space and tranquil pond below, creating a sense of openness and connection. The downstairs master bedroom offers enhanced privacy, with a king bed and garden outlook, making it an ideal retreat. For an additional cost a separate self contained studio is on the property that offers stylish bathroom, kitchen and queen bed sleeping for two. Feel free to enquire about rates for this.
Underfloor heating throughout most of the home ensures a luxurious sense of warmth year-round. For evenings spent indoors, the deep soaking bath invites long, indulgent moments of relaxation — a glass of wine and a good book close at hand.
I am easily contactable throughout your stay, should you need anything, but my intention is always to leave you to enjoy the house in complete privacy.
Location:
Wentworth Falls is, in my view, one of the most beautiful and atmospheric villages in the Upper Blue Mountains. On your way through, enjoy a great coffee at Butter Café, then gather supplies from the local grocer, greengrocer, wine shop, baker and butcher.
A gentle morning walk to the lake is a lovely way to begin the day before exploring nearby galleries, boutique stores and charming retro shops.
Wentworth Falls train station is located in the village, approximately a 10-minute walk away, with taxis available (best to book one on the way up). While the village is easily accessible by train, having a car allows you to explore the wider Mountains at your own pace — from secluded walking tracks to dramatic lookouts and neighbouring villages.
