We loved our little getaway at the cosy RydalCottage. Sitting by the open fire place, listening to laughing kookaburras or drinking tea and looking at the beautiful gardens was very relaxing. A warm electric blanket was a plus. Thank you for having us!

Perfect winter get away! Lovely cottage and surrounds. Couldn't have asked for more. Carol was wonderful! We arrived at night and were very grateful to find the cottage was warm and the fireplace was set up ready to go. Location was great, only 2 hours drive and everyone in the town was so welcoming. We had a great time away with our puppy! Thank you so much for having us. We will definitely be back!

Rydal cottage was a delight. Clean, very comfortable and had everything we needed. We enjoyed an open fire of an evening with plenty of firewood provided. The grounds were picturesque and fenced to be pet friendly. The communication from the host was appropriate and informative. We highly recommend the cottage and host, and look forward to future visits.

We had an amazing experience at Rydal Cottage. The cottage was perfect, the grounds superb and the features amazing, Carol has thought of everything. Our dog was immediately at home in the extensive garden and preferred to be out exploring than inside - that was of course until we lit the fire and then he was on his rug hugging the heat!Will definately be back, thanks Carol!

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.
