Right from the start when booking Amy- the host was wonderful! Great open and clear communication and a pressure to liaise and correspond with. The homestead “Glen Isla” was equally as wonderful and had such attention to detail with the charm of a beautiful historic and lovingly restored home. There was nothing one could want for- everything was there and more! The hosts had auch attention to detail and thoughtfulness to make the stay truly special and memorable. Glen Isla is highly recommended and I will be letting my friends know how wonderful it is and should be a “must stay!” for anyone visiting Wentworth Falls!!
good size property for the 11 family members who stayed.
Good quality bed linen and beds.
Felt the house was looking a little tired, maybe a coat of
paint would freshen it up
Kitchen was well stocked with crockery and cookware.
We all enjoyed our stay.
A lovely, spacious, well equipped house. Perfect for 60+ year olds. A bonus was its proximity to walking tracks and a beautiful gallery. Lush surrounds. April a good time to visit as the sun is still warm. One fridge was not sufficient for a group of 8.
We absolutely loved our stay here. Owners were fantastic to deal with. Cottage was very clean, well equipped and the location was incredible. Only oversight by us is that we didn’t realise until we arrived that the kids room is actually external from the main house (separate entrance to the cottage, not inside and upstairs like I thought). Our primary school aged children were too young to sleep in this space alone as there is no access directly from the house without walking outside and at night that is not ideal. This meant we had to change our sleeping arrangements to accommodate. Otherwise, this property was perfect.

Was a great place to stay and worked well for a girls weekend away.
We had a great stay at Glen Isla. Eight team members came together from across Australasia for our annual Strategic Planning retreat. The house was comfortable and well appointed and our host was responsive and helpful.Highly recommend for large family or group gatherings.
Glen Isla was the perfect spot for our family Christmas celebrations!! We were surprised by how well-equipped it was with heaps of plates, serving utensils and the hardest working (and highly effective!) dishwasher. The beds were super comfy and everyone had their own space while still spending quality time together playing boardgames around the dining table and watching the cricket. The kids thought the garden was full of fairies and we were delighted by visiting black cocktaoos, kookaburras and king parrots throughout our stay. We took advantage of the location to go for lovely walks. A truly unforgettable Christmas at Glen Isla.
Very quiet, comfortable and absolutely charming house with plenty of room for everyone.

Amazing Stay !!!
We recently stayed at Glen Isla House for a family birthday and had a fabulous
time. The house and grounds are completely charming and had everything we
needed for a great weekend. The house is in a great location, very close to the
Falls and is well appointed with comfy beds, a fully equipped kitchen, ducted
heating and excellent stereo (good cd collection too!) just to name a few! The
billiard table and dart board were a big hit with the family.
The owner Amy is really lovely, so helpful, easy going and nice to talk to.
We had a wonderful stay and for anyone looking at staying in the Blue Mountains I highly recommend this property. We are looking forward to another stay in the
future.
Beautiful house that provides everything you require set amongst lovely grounds. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Glen Isla sitting around the warm fireplace even though the weather wasn’t the best.Would highly recommend for large group.
Glen Isla is a beautiful home which suited our needs perfectly. It has charm and space, and we did appreciate the Christmas tree, lights and special touches to make it feel like home.
Comfy, spacious, well-appointed house, great for groups
Glen Isla is ideal for family or friend reunions or gatherings. The house is spacious and comfortable, the kitchen has everything you could possibly need, there are lots of entertainment options, the garden is beautiful and it’s an easy walk to the various lookouts surrounding Wentworth Falls. A great place to stay.

Great Location and beautiful home and gardens
We stayed at Glen IsIa for a few days and thought the home was a great getaway for our family of 7. Plenty of sleeping options and the kids enjoyed a few games of pool in the garage. The home is close to the Blue Mountains attractions and we enjoyed a good meal just up the road at the bowling club.

Spectacular Historical Homestead
This beautiful house is set in a lovely well kept garden. The area is quiet and private. Bedrooms are spacious and comfortable with high quality linen. There are 3 big bathrooms and a nicely setup kitchen. The living area and dining room are also large enough for big groups. Plenty of outside areas for sitting, eating, and a very good large BBQ as well. Glen Isla is the perfect location for family reunions or special celebrations, groups looking for something classy but nice. Highly recommended.
