We love Rydal Cottage. Beautiful little cottage set amongst fabulous gardens with everything you need for cosy weekend or extended stay. Clean, tidy with world of charm. Our fur babies love running around the garden. Carol met us on arrival which was lovely, communication and check in were easy. I highly recommend staying here. Quaint little town close to Lithgow, Japanese Bathhouse and the Zig Zag railway.

We booked for my daughter wedding. It was close to the venue and our fur babies were welcome. They loved the large area we had. The cottage was very clean and it was very interesting seeing the photos from the original cottage to what it has been created into. I would recommend this rental

What a wonderful location close to the Rail Station which has the old world feel about it. Walk to the local hotel which has a lovely ambience.The grounds are immaculate, the interior charming and welcoming with two outdoor seating areas close to the home and others scattered amongst the gardens. I would definitely recommend it as a respite from busy living and an introduction to all this unique region has to offer.

The cottage, garden and surrounds are beautiful! The photos are a true representation, and Rydal is a quiet, peaceful village with very friendly locals. We were able to get all the supplies we needed from Wallerawang, a short 12 minute drive. Our host Carol was lovely, very responsive and helpful! Our dog LOVED the huge garden!

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!
