The space
Nestled in the picturesque village of Blackheath, just a six-minute walk from the historic railway station, this rustic cottage offers an idyllic mountain retreat. Located on a quiet street overlooking the stunning Kanimbla Valley, it’s a two-minute stroll to a bush track connecting to the scenic Porters Pass loop. Wake to misty mornings or clear blue skies and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Blue Mountains.
Colomatta Mist is all about slow living. The cosy living room is centred around a wood-combustion fireplace and opens onto the verandah, making it a calm space for unwinding together. There’s comfortable seating, a guitar for impromptu tunes, and a selection of books to enjoy.
Whether you’re sharing a glass of wine or curling up with a blanket by the fire, this is a place to relax and feel at home. For movie nights in, stream your favourite shows and films on the LG OLED 4K TV with Apple TV 4K. Apple TV+, Disney+ and Netflix are all included.
For a bit of family fun, the vintage Danish rosewood cabinet is stocked with board games and Uno cards, and for the nostalgic among us, a Nintendo Classic Mini contains all your favourite classics.
The cottage features two tranquil bedrooms, designed with comfort and simplicity in mind. The master bedroom opens through French doors onto the front verandah, with escarpment views - perfect for morning coffee or evening sunsets. It includes a queen bed dressed in French flax linen bedding, a dedicated workspace with monitor, and a vintage oak wardrobe.
The second bedroom offers two king single beds and a vintage oak dresser for storage, making it a comfortable option for adults or children alike. Both rooms include ceiling fans for warmer months, panel heaters, and heated blankets for extra comfort on chilly nights.
Needing to get some work done? The 500 Mbps fibre-to-the-premises internet connection provides fast, reliable Wi-Fi for work or streaming.
The charming shaker-style country kitchen is bathed in soft natural light and warmly invites you in. It includes quality appliances and cookware such as a Bosch induction cooker, microwave, Staub cocotte, Scanpan pots, pans and knives, all essential utensils, elegant crockery, and a generous 420 litre family-sized fridge. Enjoy a leisurely walk to the village to pick up freshly baked bread, local produce and quality meats, and return to cook and dine at your own pace.
Outdoors, the front garden offers seating, while the back garden features a garden table, bench seating, and a fire pit - perfect for cosy evenings under the mountain stars.
Surrounded by the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains, Blackheath offers visitors a variety of attractions. Visit the iconic views at Evans Lookout and Pulpit Rock, explore nearby wineries and paddock-to-plate fine dining in the Megalong Valley, or enjoy the seasonal blooms and birdwatching along the Fairfax Heritage Walking Track.

We'd love to welcome your furry friend.
Our retreat is dog-friendly, though please note that the property is only partially fenced.
A couple of simple house rules to ensure a comfortable stay for everyone:
• If you're heading out, please keep bedroom doors closed so your pup stays in the lounge and kitchen areas.
• Kindly pick up after your dog and dispose of waste in the red bin provided.
Looking for a great adventure with your pup? Just down the road, you'll find Porters Pass, a fantastic dog-friendly walking trail perfect for a scenic stroll with your four-legged companion.
Please kindly note that we only have a step-in bath with overhead shower, which might not suit those with mobility issues.
