This is a lovely property my room overlooking the garden and the main historic house was delightful, a very good quality self service breakfast and also a delightful and also a delicious range of cakes and biscuits for morning or afternoon tea island out. Over two days we never saw any staff or management, While this has little impact on our stay it was the only negative for us.

Good value for money. Whilst close to the Great Western Highway and train line didn’t really notice it. Walkable distance into Blackheath shops. Very comfortable bed. You won’t speak to any staff at all, self service and checkout through lock box.There is some basic self service breakfast if you want to eat in with cereal, juice and bread. Some all day slices and cakes available to guests is a nice touch. The dining room is tiny and there aren’t any real common facilities. The laneway to the property is shared and looks a bit ordinary Overall this is a good value for money stay,nothing flash but does the job well.

Typical historic B&B in a beautiful old building with period features. Great location within walking distance of Blackheath township and its shops and restaurants. The best was really comfortable, coupled with a quiet dark room for a good night's sleep. What was missing for me was space outside the room. There wasn't much outdoor common space and the inside common room was not much more than an entrance foyer.

Rowan Brae is an historic house with all the period features and furnishing with modern twists (USB power points, modern bathrooms etc.) We enjoyed a wonderfully relaxing stay, and our host was very friendly and helpful. The rooms are tastefully furnished and the personal touches made the stay perfect. The house is surrounded by beautiful gardens where visitors can relax or make use of the croquet provided. Breakfast is provided on a self-serve basis. There was an incredible feast available from cereals, toast and juices to eggs and ham and cheese muffins. Plenty of extras such as cakes, Danishes, fruit and a range of teas and coffees. The rooms on the front face the Great Western Highway so there is some traffic noise during busy times. However, the house is completely screened from the road by beautiful trees and hedgerows. Easy walking to restaurants and cafes and a short drive to amazing views of the Megalong and Grose Valleys. Definitely recommended for a mini break.

Rowan Brae Guesthouse was the perfect place for a mountains retreat. Beautiful character-filled property in a quiet location, very close to Blackheath village. Room was spacious and cosy. Lovely reception / sitting area with breakfast provisions as well as cakes and treats available all day. Outdoor spaces and gardens are beautiful too & would be nice to sit outside in fine weather. A wonderful find. Will be back.

Lovely place to stay

What a gorgeous place to stay, lovely gardens, rooms and great location. A bit noisy traffic wise and would recommend numbering parking as we went out and came back and there were no spots left- we had to squeeze into a space.
