Everyone wants to visit the 'big three' - Three Sisters, Scenic World, Jenolan Caves.
In Katoomba there is the world famous 3 Sisters and Scenic World with the skyway, railway and cableway. Jenolan Caves is the most visited inland tourist attraction in the State and consistently receives best tourist attraction award. The views on the drive in alone are worth the trip.
Jenolan Valley View is exactly half way between the Katoomba and Jenolan attractions.
Some people worry about bushfires in the mountains during summer. Jenolan Valley View is ideally located in a mostly rural part of the mountains that has been unaffected by fire in living memory. We look across to the Blue Mountains but are not threatened by the fires that sometimes occur there.
Please be aware that we do not let the house to groups with children who can not swim as the pool and dam are not fenced and are both close to the house.
