Family-friendly vacation rentals in Hartley

Thank you so much Margot & Lee, for the stay at your amazing house, overlooking the blue mountains. I can’t thank you enough for your support, hospitality, friendliness, prompt responses to any questions I had, and look forward to coming back again. 🥰

What a fantastic place to stay! So homely, well-equipped and with an appropriate level of privacy and support available from Chantelle if needed. Love the chooks! Hope we get to visit again 🙂

This stay is by far one of the best Air B&B stays I’ve ever had. Went for a peaceful getaway and it was perfect. Andy was the most attentive host and his property was beyond beautiful and pristine. How he keeps the entire 3 acres this perfect is beyond me. The location, on the edge of a huge gorge had the best views ever! We enjoyed his stunning rock pool that looked like it was cut straight out of the natural, huge rock formations in the area. We ate outside almost every night in the beautiful garden area. Even made a small bonfire and just enjoyed the night. I cannot recommend Andy’s cottages more. We will for sure be back soon!

We had a wonderful stay at this charming sandstone cottage in Kurrajong. The house is spacious and surrounded by peaceful bushland, with lovely walking trails and a great campfire spot. We especially enjoyed the unique cowboy and vintage memorabilia that gave the place so much character. The kitchen was very well equipped, allowing us to cook hearty meals and really make the space feel like home. On our last night, we ended the trip perfectly with a cozy campfire and roasted veggies under the stars. A beautiful, remote getaway—perfect for the Easter long weekend and a much-needed escape from the busy city life.

Anna was a lovely responsive host! The place was incredible, on the same road as the Grand Canyon walk which is our favourite work in the blue mountains. Anna also provided local restaurants that was not too far away. High recommend this place and will come again.

Had such a wonderful and much needed restorative weekend in this beautiful pocket of the world! Would love to call it home. Perfect way to switch off. Elizabeth was an excellent communicator and provided plenty of information. Nothing was too difficult for Col and he was also able to help us get around and the like. Much appreciated!

Have stayed before..everything you need is at Slav''s...always great to have the family and plenty of room to avoid each other 🤣 Will stay again ..great value for money and close to all attractions . :)

We absolutely loved our long weekend at the barn in Windsor! It's such a quaint little town, and the barn was the perfect hideaway for relaxing and reading. We especially enjoyed the ready-to-use sauna and spa. The beds were comfy - though those steep stairs were quite the workout! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily come back.

We stayed here in this unspoilt part of paradise for 4 nights and everything that we experienced from location, weather and amenities of the home were beyond our expectations and made our time here very memorable. Highly recommend Anne's place for a very relaxing and peaceful time away. Thank you Anne for your communication before, during and after our stay.

Excellent location, only a short drive from centre of Katoomba and Scenic World. Check in process was simple, and the whole place was spotless and clean. Highly recommend!

Excellent and friendly hosts. Very nice and peaceful space. Well communicated instructions and friendly animals to top it off. Thank you Susan and John for a wonderful stay!

We had a beautiful weekend away at Cox’s cottage. It was so quiet and the views, especially at sunset, were unreal. It was a great escape from the city to unwind for a few days! The cottage itself is so charming and Jeremy and Annette were very responsive.

The cozy cabin was lovely for weekend away in winter. Clean and well maintained. Information provided by the host was clear and helpful.

We had a great time despite rain. It is a beautiful area and John and Ragna have done up the house so well, it's lovely.

We really enjoyed our winter stay in The Nook. The cottage is quite old and has retained lots of original features. Despite the near freezing weather, we remained nice and warm with the log fire and numerous heaters around the place. We will return in warmer months, so we can enjoy the garden a bit more with its amazing views.

Koonje is just delightful on all levels. The location looking over the valley is magical and the cottage itself is a beautifully decorated, warm inviting haven. Michael and his family have created a wonderfully eclectic style, true to the traditions of the Blue Mountains yet with every modern comfort. The bathrooms are a real pleasure and the spacious kitchen is incredibly well equipped for cooking if you feel so inclined. Despite the winter weather we spent time outside enjoying the beautifully landscaped garden but loved lighting the fire at night. We will certainly book again.

Leesa’s place was just fabulous. So comfortable, well equipped, extremely spacious, great amenities, air conditioned and having use of the swimming pool was fabulous on those hot days! We would highly recommend staying here and would definitely book again in the future when next back in Bathurst.

Cosy and clean self contained cabin in a quiet and tranquil setting. You do need transport to get to cafes, restaurants and shops. Sarah is a wonderful host and supportive to make your stay extra special. Thank you

We have stayed with Genie often while visiting family nearby. We enjoying catching the bus at the end of the street and making our way to the station to catch the train to the city. There are parks and walks nearby, and we regularly walk to a cafe in Asquith for coffee. Genie's place is roomy and private, with everything we need for our stay. We particularly appreciate the washing machine and drying space.

We had a lovely time at Rod and Lynsey’s place. All of the needs for young families was very well thought out from night lights to access to a huge trampoline and simple things like washing machine detergent and milk for breakfast after a late night arrival. They also offered tips to travel more easily into Sydney city and there bar area was a fun and relaxing retreat for parents. Thanks very much, we look forward to visiting at the same time next year!

Amy's house was perfect for us. We had a family gathering and the kitchen, bedrooms, central areas and out door covered area were great. The location was really convenient for bush walking, cafes, scenic world, Echo Point. Once again it suited us extremely well.

This accommodation was perfect for what we needed it for. It didn’t quite match the pictures in terms of furniture etc but that didn’t put us off at all. John and his family were helpful and accommodating. Even letting us use their dryer when it rained. It was simply a base for us and the pool was an added bonus. It was a lot cheaper than other accommodation nearby which sold it to us and I am glad that it did. I think we will definitely be booking to stay here again in the future.

Gary was a responsive host. The apartment was bigger than it looked in the photos, which was a nice suprise. We are on a four week trip around Eastern Australia, and free use of the washing machine was a great bonus.

Hilde was welcoming and extremely accommodating. She met us on arrival and helped us to get settled. We felt very welcome, and very comfortable. We requested her to accommodate more friends for lunch meetup, she responded promptly and accepted our request. She provided us extra stuff/furniture for comfortable lunch get together. House was neat and tidy with lot of furniture, Kitchen items and plenty of towels for the shower, pool and beach. We used kitchen oven, induction and other items to prepare lunch items/curries for lunch get together. This was a spectacular experience. would highly recommend to anyone that's looking for a relaxing time away from a busy lifestyle. Thank you Hilde for your support and it was great to hear your life experiences.
