Cecils Chair Blackheath Blue Mountains

Cecil's Chair - Blackheath Cottage with a View Welcome to Cecil's Chair, a three-bedroom and two-bathroom cottage that is located in Blackheath in greater Sydney's famous Blue Mountains.

'The house with a view' is located in an area known locally as 'Paradise Hill'; it backs directly onto Porter's Pass and offers breathtakingly beautiful uninterrupted views over the Kanimbla Valley. Cecil's Chair is perfect for couples or group retreats. It boasts one King bedroom, two Queen bedrooms, three sitting areas and two bathrooms both equipped with spa baths.

Simply relax in the sitting room watching the mist lift over the valley in the morning or the sun setting in the evening. Enjoy cooking a meal in the well-equipped kitchen, take advantage of the culinary delights and shopping in Blackheath and surrounds or take a walk along Porter's Pass, with the start of this bushwalk 100 metres from the front door. With a comfortable perch on Cecil's Chair you can immerse yourself in everything the Blue Mountains has to offer.

If you are seeking a more adventurous experience, you may consider para-gliding off Mount Blackheath, rock climbing at one of the numerous climbs accessed from Blackheath or abseiling and horse riding.
For a more relaxing escape, enjoy the peaceful and varied village atmosphere or simply soak in the master spa and take in the views!

We hope that you will enjoy your stay in beautiful Blackheath which offers a charming village experience, breathtaking views and world-famous bushwalks. Cecil's Chair is the perfect place to do as little, or as much, as you please.

Gorgeous property
We loved our stay at Cecil's chair. From the moment you turn the key & step into panoramic views of the valley, everything about this home has been thoughtfully considered & we all can't wait to come back & stay longer. Comfortable spacious bedrooms, multiple living spaces & well equipped kitchen, peace & tranquility-what more could we want!

Cozy home
Nice cozy place at the corner of the street overlooking the valley. Only issue for me was, the steep credit card surcharge to make the balance payment through the real estate agent’s website. I would have preferred to pay the balance amount using the stayz website which was not possible.

Beautiful cottage in perfect surroundings. The view is unbelievable, I can't imagine finding better in the Blue Mountains. The Reidl family are amazing hosts, nothing is too much trouble for them. The cottage is thoughtfully appointed with everything you could ask for in hand. The spa bath overlooking the Megalong Valley is a once in a lifetime experience. Simply magical.

Wow!
I love it when you get to your destination and the property exceeds your expectations. We just loved this cottage, with its stunning views from the living areas and the bathroom, and the three big bedrooms. The kitchen is well-equipped and there is a separate living area if you MUST watch tv. We just watched the views, endlessly, and started reading some of the books - a great library so you don't need to bring anything. But you will need plenty of time to finish them! It is a property full of character which suits its location and is just such a relaxing, peaceful place. Thank you for sharing.

Our second visit to Cecil's Chair. It always feels so special when you walk through the door and see the view into the valley. The bathroom also has an amazing view. Fabulous books to browse as you sit in the comfy chairs and watch the ever changing view. We will be back.

Covid forced us to cancel- hosts so supportive
We love Blackheath and Cecil’s chair is the perfect mountain house. We couldn’t come this year but received a full refund despite late notice due to Covid ambush. Susi is an outstanding host, we have already rebooked for next year.
