Default Blue Mountains

Planning a trip for Spring to drive Melbourne to Blue Mountains. Have about 7 to 10 days in mind.

Any suggestions?

Places to see and experience both enroute and at destination?

Quite fancy travelling up via the NSW coast line and coming back a different way.

Accomodation up to about $300 per night.

If you want to stay in a lovely B&B I would recommend Lurline House which is in Katoomba. Lovely hosts and a breakfast to die for. The family that run it came over from the UK about 10 - 15 years ago. Give their website a look.

http://www.lurlinehouse.com.au/

If you end up going please tell them Kevin and Sam recommended them as they are friends of ours.
