Autumn will be here before you know it. It is a lovely season in our neighborhood and throughout the Blue Mountains. This photo is a maple tree in our back garden in 2021.
If you are interested in staying, let us know your dates as we are not opening very far in advance at this time. Why? We have to catch up on activities and travel, too. We are also happy to hold dates for returning guests if your plans are not firm. Drop us an email or text message or write us a note via the contact form.
The health pandemic over the past two years is a moving feast in terms of rules, lockdowns, coronovirus variants and travel. It is time to post another update about how that impacts staying at the Milepost Annex.
We are open on a limited basis for guests who are fully vaccinated and have not been exposed to COVID-19 recently. Please contact us to discuss your situation. We are also happy to answer any questions you have for us. Click on the contact form on the web site to send us a note and include your phone number if you want us to call you.
To explain why, we are both senior citizens and fully vaccinated. The guest suite is part of our home so we are taking extra precautions at this stage. Yes, things in Australia are starting to open up and we are all grateful for this. We look forward to better days head.
Stay tuned and we’ll post another update as things change. Thank you.
It has been a tough few months in Greater Sydney (which includes an extended area it seems from the Central Coast to Wollongong and west to Mt Victoria in the Blue Mountains. We are in the Upper Blue Mountains and have been included in that designation.
The reopening plans are underway for New South Wales and we look forward to welcoming you back or for the first time to the Milepost Annex. Please get in touch if you have questions or want to ask about dates. We have kept the booking calendar closed for a little while longer.
In the meantime, here is a beautiful sunset from our back garden in late winter:
Bronnie has been with us for several months now and has settled in. He loves other dogs and humans and always wants to say hello. We are careful to make sure that others actually want to meet him, too!
We have the property set up so that guests have their own area complete with gates to separate from the section where there might be guest dogs or now, our own dog again.
We also look after dogs of our friends and neighbors from time to time. This makes Bronnie very, very happy.
It might seem mundane but when the new fridge arrives, you realize how great it is.
Maybe she needs a name? In any case, pick up as much ice cream as you can carry and she will keep it at a perfect temperature.
Many thanks to guests who let us know we needed an upgrade that would keep the veggies crisp and the ice cream frozen. Feedback is an awesome gift.
We have a fabulous gas fireplace to keep you warm on chilly evenings. When we reviewed guest comments, having a glass of wine in front of the fire was the top one.
We have decided to launch a simple web site for The Milepost Annex.
We hope previous guests can easily find us. We now have a place to share all of our videos, photos, links and information. So stay tuned for more posts.
Please send your comments, questions and suggestions. Thank you.
