Loved the facilities, and that they were free, the games, sport equipment, marshmallows for the fire pit, heated indoor pool and laundry. Beds were comfortable with the exception of the rollaway. Cabin was well equipped and the fire was cosy when it rained, cabin accommodated 5 adults well. Staff were friendly. It was so peacefully quiet to sleep.

After kindly accomodating us, last minute, with an extra adult staying, the only negative would be the rollaway bed was too firm, uncomfortable.

Our second visit at Federation Gardens & Possums Hideaway was equally as enjoyable as the first, exceeding our expectations. Our host, Jess, greeted us warmly and made us feel perfectly at home from the time we arrived. The accommodations itself provide a range of features that serve well to both adults and children. The BBQ area was well-equipped and maintained, making it ideal for family meals and quiet gatherings. In addition, the pool was popular with the youngsters. They spent hours enjoying the indoor and heated water, which kept them comfortable no matter what the weather was like. Another notable feature was the fire pit. Everything was lovingly provided, including firewood, fire starters, and marshmallows in the room, which the kids thoroughly enjoyed. These simple gestures made our stay quite unforgettable. The kids' gaming room was well-stocked with activities like as table tennis, several sorts of balls for different sports, and much more. The addition of a tennis court with rackets and balls expanded the variety of outdoor activities accessible. In addition to the various attractions of Federation Gardens & Possums Hideaway, the reception area has a large selection of movies and board games. Guests can select from this collection for free. This feature is very tempting to families and parties searching for indoor entertainment, particularly in the evenings or on rainy days. The location of Federation Gardens and Possums Hideaway is also worth noting. It is conveniently located within walking distance of Evan's Lookout, Grand Canyon, and Walls Cave, providing easy access to some breathtaking natural sites.

Cosy comfy stay. Stayed at the 5 bed cottage. Spacious rooms and lots of beds for our children to choose from. Lovely pool, small play area, and a fire pit + mushmellow at night for a good memory.

Bring your own frying pan. Bit cold at night. Do the hand wash instead using a dishwasher. Internet only works near the windows. Otherwise all good.

Great for families, lots of activities to keep the kids occupied and being surrounded by the beautiful nature. Only a short 4 minute drive to a local bistro to eat which was also convenient. The rooms are very clean & cosy, loved the fireplace which kept the whole 2 bedroom nice and warm. We toasted marshmallows and made use of the pool! Honestly a great 10/10. Highly recommend and also very affordable!

That we couldn’t stay longer.

The cottage was spacious and clean. The kitchen was well-equipped with enough plates, glasses and utensils for 4 people. Very close to Evans Lookout. The facilities are great. There's an indoor pool and a well-stocked gameroom. There's even a small outdoor lending library.

There's no wifi and internet service is very bad in the area.

We liked that the lounge room was comfy and spacious, that everything was very clean, and that the beds were very comfortable. We also appreciate that there were blankets and supplies such as shampoo and hairdryer available.

The only negative aspect was the lack of internet, but we understand that is a getaway place so it is not crucial for the accommodation to have. Honestly, we did not check that before booking so it is all good.

Possum Hideway proved to be a beautiful private location. Easy to get to by car and only a short drive from the main hub attractions of Katoomba and Leura. Facilities were modern and clean. The fireplace being prepared for our use was a big highlight (as we've never built one before!) and the heater being turned on to warm our room for our late check-in was amazing! The late check-in and complimentary 12 pm check-out were a dream! 100% would recommend it, and would stay again!

There was nothing to fault!

Secluded, comfortable cabin for two, with a cosy wood fire, surrounded by great Australian bush. Waking up to the sounds of Lyrebirds nearby, just beautiful. So close to Blackheath, great boutique town. Great bush walks and scenery nearby. Perfect place for a private getaway. Great accommodation for families as well.

The fact we had to leave.

I love everything about this place! From the booking online experience to the quick (almost instant) communication with the staff online when I had questions, then the clarity of instructions for late arrival and then to be greeted by a warm, welcoming porch light that ushers you into a beautifully clean and cosy cabin.

Warm welcome from Jess, cottages were heated, ready for us to settle in. Kitchen was well stocked. Beds were comfy. There was a huge outdoor space with tennis court, swimming pool, etc. Lots to do!

There are no heaters in the rooms, but the heater in the lounge was strong enough to keep the rooms warm if you leave the doors ajar. Barbecue was not cleaned well by previous user.
