About this house rental

WARAGIL COTTAGE

There is No Television or WiFi at Waragil Cottage... enjoy the serenity!

Waragil Cottage is a heritage-listed home, being the original settler's cottage of that area in Blackheath in the 1800's. The cottage has preserved some of its earliest features and charm that harmonises with the modern comforts of a newly renovated kitchen and bathroom.

Being very quaint, Waragil Cottage adorns high ceilings, carpet in the bedrooms, floorboards throughout maion areas and is full of spacious nooks to divide your time meandering through the house. There are two large bedrooms and a sunroom, two lounge rooms, and two dining rooms.

In winter, Waragil Cottage offers a roaring gas log fireplace in the heart of the home and several heaters for other rooms.

The front porch, with a north-east aspect, is a great place for sunny breakfasts and the rear sunroom gathers the heat in the afternoon.

Meander through the beautiful private gardens and find the tree swing in the large fenced backyard, that is perfect for families with children.

Everything you need for a relaxing holiday is within walking distance of Waragil Cottage and is only a few minutes walk from the train station.

Enjoy the charm of Waragil Cottage and the many delights on offer around Blackheath and the Blue Mountains, where you can find vast mountain vistas, wildflowers and gardens, world-class rock climbing, gourmands delights, and a cosy lounge.

Property good, Managers Not so good
Property good, Managers Not so good
We booked through Accommodated and they didn't return phone calls or emails and as a host myself they were very disappointing in their professionalism. As to the property, it sleeps 11 as long as a full paying person sleeps on the lounge as the pull out bed couldn't be accessed with removing both lounges and there was nowhere to put them. The other sleeping accommodation was wooden sun lounges for 5 people as there were only 3 double beds. Be prepared for this. One toilet for 11 people and a lack of toilet paper had us buying our own.

Christmas in the mountains
Christmas in the mountains
A quaint blue mountains period cottage with great bushland walks just a block away (not national park, so good for the dogs too!). A wonderful setting where the branches of the family celebrated Christmas. The changing levels in the house was a bit challenging for an elderly relative, and the one bathroom could be in high demand if full with 10 people. Except for one room, there were no flyscreens, so getting air flow on hotter days meant possible flies or mossies.

The ceiling is collapsing!
Overall the stay was fine, but the ceiling in the sitting room is collapsing! The second night we sat at the table in another room as it looked that bad and was getting worse . . . sent an email to the property manager but no reply yet. Do not rent until they have fixed this . . .

Some issues
Some issues
We left our stay at Waragil Cottage NOT feeling as relaxed as we had hoped! While we were there we experienced a leak from the roof during a rainstorm (that looked to have already been patched with a cloth/sponge) onto the stairs, the dryer stopped working, the microwave seemed to trip a safety fuse for the house a number of times and the gas heater continually needed to be relit (maybe we didn’t know how to properly work it but we felt we followed the instructions given as best as we could). Please also be aware, as can be seen in the house pictures, that the third bedroom as mentioned is a sunroom but it only has sheer curtains to the outside, and windows without curtains facing into it from both the kitchen and a separate sitting room, as well as an open doorway with no door so privacy was non-existent and not amenable to sleep if someone was using the kitchen or sitting room as there was no curtains to block the light. Also be aware that the bathroom has entrances to it from a bedroom, and another room near the sunroom, and we found the locks on the doors were not easy to operate. The house did have a cosy feel to it and we appreciated the kitchen but for the price we paid we would not personally return.

Mountain Getaway
Mountain Getaway
Waragil House was a perfect getaway location for my family including my dad, husband, daughter and dog. Though the cottage seems small from the outside there is plenty of room for everyone to spread out with 2 lounge room areas, 2 dining areas and cosy nooks. We loved for front porch for breakfast and an afternoon drink. The cottage is perfectly located only a couple of streets from both the main shops and the walking trails on the left side of Blackheath which are dog friendly. We stayed a week and enjoyed a different walk every day with the dog.

Interesting mix of old and new parts of the house. Would love to know some of the history behind the different parts of the house. Close to everything including great bush walks.The stairs inside were a challenge for elderly, but otherwise cosy.
