Rydal Cottage (Min 2 night stay)

Rydal Cottage is the perfect couples retreat renovated and tastefully restored into a cosy country hideaway. The cottage is centrally located in the village on a large 2 acre entry 1 Ford Street Rydal

The historic township of Rydal

The historic township is set in a picturesque valley only a short distance from many of the fascinating towns in the area.
A sleepy little village where the local pub is the focal point for both locals and visitors and many a yarn is shared.

Cozy Cottage

A very enjoyable stay in a cozy cottage, ideal for couples as it is located some 15 minutes from Lithgow and an easy drive to Katoomba, the heart of the Blue Mountains. The gardens and wildlife surrounding the cottage are spectacular.

Mini break with our furkids

A mini break for us and able to bring our dogs along was great. We enjoyed the cozy home and the wonderfully peaceful garden. Amazing butterflies and bird life, late summer flowers and beautiful trees and shrubs. Perfect!

Absolutely divine! I was looking for a peaceful writing retreat and that's exactly what I got! The history of the cottage was what drew me in but the way it has been lovingly restored was gorgeous. The heated bathroom floor and beautiful claw foot bath were amazing. The bed extremely comfortable and the fire was very much used on the chilly nights. A well equipped kitchen.The gardens were beautiful and peaceful to walk around and sitting in the afternoon winter sun was magic. The perfect, peaceful getaway! Highly recommend!
