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.

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.
