I had an unplanned stay at Glenella for one night. Stayed in a double room on the bottom levelof the building. Room was small but was all I needed. Bed was super comfy and warm with high quality crisp sheets and quilt. The bathroom is shared with other rooms on the bottom level. It was large and spacious. The bathroom was very clean, stylish and stocked with additional towels. Rowan and Magerite were lovely. On arrival I was given a tour of the entire building. I have found my winters mountain retreat. Will definitely return and recommend to others.

Glenella is an absolute gem of a place, the owners are fantastic and the property is exactly as described, if not better. Amenities are amazing, love the heated rooms, relaxing areas, kitchen is very well equipped... the list goes on and on. We would definitely stay again.

Margaret, thank you so much for your warm welcome and magical weekend haven. A birthday to remember forever- cannot wait to return! xx

The most amazing place to stay while in the blue mountains. The host is such a lovely woman. She makes you feel right at home. The guesthouse is super cozy with games, a fireplace and plenty of spots to sit and relax. The amenities are clean. The kitchen is very well equiped and large. We kept extending our stay because it was so great!

Nice location and wonderful premises. This 100 years old guest house made us feel comfortable and welcomed. Large common spaces, lounge, sofas cosy and comfortable. Our room with 2 single beds was small though, with a private bathroom. No television, but a lovely fireplace in the lounge to warm up and social with others. Thanks Margaret to make us feel welcomed 😊

We had a really lovely 3 night stay at Glenella. Wonderful and homey place to stay; Margaret was very welcoming. Highlights in the winter include a fire and cosy living room and dining room. Blackheath is a good location from which to explore the rest of the mountain area.

Gorgeous freshly painted rooms, clean, comfortable and a great location. The hosts were warm and welcoming. The various cosy nooks to sit and relax made it a perfect weekend getaway. Thanks for accommodating us at short notice.

This little gem in the heart of the Blue Mountains is not one to be missed. The hosts at Glenella have retained all of its old world charm by decorating it throughout with antiques, period furniture and memorabilia. As you enter the spacious front parlour you are welcomed by the genteel English hostess who seems to blend perfectly into place. She is a font of knowledge about Blackheath and surrounds and will gladly provide you with suggestions of things to do while you are staying there. After a quick tour of the guesthouse you will be introduced to your room and any other amenities you may require to enjoy your stay. The bed was comfortable and we slept well in spite of the creaking floorboards. The bathroom was suitably old fashioned, but clean and, although the plumbing took a little while to get into action, the water was hot and plentiful. You are encouraged to use the kitchen facilities to prepare your own meals or choose from a number of excellent cafes and restaurants which are a short walk from guesthouse. Altogether a delightful stay that made us feel like we had briefly gone back in time.

Wow, what a beautiful place to stay! My partner, brother and I stayed for the UTA weekend. We were warmly welcomed by Margaret and shared lovely chats with her and fellow guests. Everything is well thought out with fantastic amenities and selection of armchairs with little nooks and crannies to relax with a book or share a meal. Highly recommended. We would love to stay again!

An amazing piece of history and an amazing private hire of this gorgeous establishment. The owners are kind, giving and have amazing knowledge of the area. Our favourite activity in this area was organising a self guided electric mountain bike hire service from Blue Mountains Biking Adventures, to ride out to the amazing Hanging Rock. Highly highly highly recommend.

Always fabulous at Glenella! Margaret and Rowan are the perfect hosts. Historic house beautifully restored. Immaculately clean, stylish and comfortable. Very relaxing. Highly recommended!

We really enjoyed our short stay at this guest house which is really conveniently located with a lovely environment, clean and well equipped. Importantly, it was also very comfortable.

2 hour drive just to see spiders and cockroaches on the corner of the bed is just unbelievable . There are no services at all, the host is just in her room not doing anything, i'm shocked
