The cottage does not have its own kitchen. The kitchen of the main house can be accessed on a strictly pre arranged basis. Please note.

Rose Cottage is an intimate getaway. It is not a self contained entire cottage which reflects in the rate charged. The cottage however is totally private and the dining room is yours exclusively at breakfast...Your entry and exit is totally private.
The garden and verandahs are yours to enjoy whenever you desire
A wonderful Continental BREAKFAST is included.

BABIES IN COT are most welcome under 6 months.There is ample room to accommodate.
The garden is yours to wander in or to just sit quietly. There is ample bird life and the garden is filled with Roses and English perennials in Spring/Summer. It has been open to the public for several years. You could enjoy an early morning walk with the birds in the COOLER months, or snuggle by the fire( should you choose to light it) and read one of the selected books or magazines. Perhaps a trip to many of the wonderful cafes in the district for a warming treat. Perhaps a deep bath full of bubbles!!

Rydal has a wonderful festival in Spring. "Daffodils at Rydal." You can read more
on the Rydal Website.


There are walks close by, and Kangaroos visit often in the evenings. Many birds live in the garden and it has been a refuge in the drought and during the fires... Sunsets are a treat, and the morning sun rises into Rose Cottage. Why not a treat at the Japanese Bath house close by.
You will find many touches at Rose Cottage that say "Welcome". Gorgeous robes and bath products.......those small touches that matter.
The food wine regions of Bathurst/Orange and Mudgee are a short drive away. The mid Blue Mountains is also only a 30 minute drive.
The XPT arrives and departs daily to Rydal, and Rose Cottage is a short stroll from the station. Only Peace awaits!!

STAY: Host was great. It's moreorless like staying over at her house. Suited for a couple (not family) Came from Adelaide for friends wedding at 'Seclusions Blue Mountain' (10min away) so chose here for convenience. FOOD: For foodies, it's a dry. closest town Lithgow (20min away) had one hip cafe 'The Lithgow Tin Shed' (but no dinner). 'Curry in a Hurry' inside shopping mall was surprisingly good (handmade Naan on the spot). SITES: 'Flat rock picnic area's (30min away) is a must. 'Mayfield Garden' (45min away) is a must.

Country slow down

It was a lovely space to relax and slow down in. Rydal was a place of of time. Rosie is a lovely hostess and her local knowledge helped us get the most from our stay. The history of the area is interesting to find out about. Loved the heated floors and that lovely deep bath in Rose Cottage.

Stay Long Weekend June 2024

A home away from home. This 1860 cottage is just beautiful and a calming escape from the stress and business of life. Arrived to a beautifully preheated space with incredible charm. Rosie is the perfect host on this property. We loved the breakfasts served to us each morning. We can’t wait to visit again.

A Lovely Weekend

There was great communication from Rosie prior to our arrival. After vehicle issues on the trip to Rydal we arrived to find the cottage all pre heated and Rosie made us feel very welcome. Each morning we had a beautiful breakfast, before heading out to enjoy our day. We shall definitely come back to stay again, thank you Rosie. Michael & Virginia

Cute Country Cottage

We had an amazing stay at Rose cottage. It was the most adorable little cottage accommodation we have stayed in. The bed was comfortable, the woodfire was prefect and the bathroom/shower was well appointed and modern. Our host Rosie was welcoming and friendly and the breakfast provided was delightful. We plan to make this an annually weekend getaway. Thank you Rosie.

Lovely cottage

Rosie's cottage is so lovely, warm and welcoming. I stayed there with my husband and it was just the perfect winter retreat. We also enjoyed the lovely breakfast prepared by Tui (I loved the jams!) and the check in/out process was super smooth. Highly recommended if you are looking for a quite, traditional countryside break!

Beautiful escape to the country

I highly recommend Rose Cottage if anyone is looking for a beautiful place to stay in the Blue Mountains. It is gorgeously decorated, with all the added extras (like bath salts and dressing gowns!). Sitting near the fireplace at night is wonderful and walking in the gardens with the puppies is lovely. I spent my weekend reading, walking around the sights of historic Rydal and relaxing. It is the perfect getaway. Highly recommended and bonus points for being puppy friendly! Thanks Rosie and Tui for my perfect weekend away.

True mountains experience

Rosie's cottage is a delightfully renovated, cosy and wonderfully warm old-style cottage with a lovely fireplace and beautiful, heated-floor bathroom. Rosie provides a delicious breakfast, including whatever style coffee you like and homemade jams in her beautiful kitchen/dining area. Rosie herself is warm and friendly and non-intrusive. Rydal is a small, quiet country town - away from the crowds but close enough to wonderful attractions. Just the sort of delightful mountains experience we were after and will always treasure.

Cute and cosy retreat

Rose Cottage at Rydal is a warm, cosy sanctuary for a couple to escape from the winter chills. Our host, Rosie, welcomed us to her home when we arrived in the late afternoon and showed us through the compact abode which provided all we would need for our overnight mid-winter stay, including electric blankets and underfloor heating in the bathroom. Next morning, Rosie provided a generous continental breakfast in the welcoming kitchen that resembles a French provincial farmhouse. Our Cavoodle, Ruby, also gave 4-out-of-4 paws for our stay! Thank you, Rosie!
