Waragil Cottage | Original Homestead, 3 Bedroom, New Kitchen Bathroom, Fireplace

WARAGIL COTTAGE

There is no television or WiFi at Waragil Cottage… enjoy the serenity!

Nestled within beautiful, rambling gardens, Waragil Cottage is a heritage-listed retreat in the heart of Blackheath where timeless charm meets modern comfort. As the original settler’s cottage from the 1800s, this character-filled home offers a unique historical atmosphere that guests consistently praise. The cottage features a split-level layout with a few gentle internal stairs, adding to its charm. Three steps lead from the main lounge into a bedroom and bathroom, and another three descend into the sunroom and kitchen at the rear of the house.

Inside, you’ll find two generously sized lounge rooms, each thoughtfully designed for comfort and relaxation. The main living area flows into an open-plan dining space, warmed by a gas log fireplace—perfect for gathering. The front lounge, centred around an open fireplace, offers a cosy spot to unwind. At the rear, the sunroom serves as a peaceful dining or reading area, with large windows overlooking the garden and bathing the space in soft afternoon light.

Waragil Cottage comfortably sleeps 9–10 guests with a flexible layout. Both main bedrooms feature queen-sized beds, with the master offering ensuite access and an additional single fold-out futon. The sunroom can be converted into a third bedroom with a double bed and a second fold-out single futon. The front lounge includes a small double click-clack sofa bed, suitable for one adult or two children. A portable cot is also available for families travelling with infants.

The modern kitchen is fully equipped for easy meal preparation, complete with a dishwasher and an adjoining laundry with a washing machine and dryer.

The stylish bathroom features a walk-in shower, heat lamp, and heated towel rack for added comfort.

Outdoors, enjoy breakfast on the sunlit, north-east-facing front porch or relax in the large, fenced backyard. Children will love the tree swing and open space to play, while adults can unwind in the peaceful garden surrounds. The sunroom is especially inviting in the golden afternoon light.

Just a 7-minute walk (450m) from Blackheath Train Station, Waragil Cottage offers easy access to scenic lookouts, bushwalking trails, wildflower gardens, gourmet cafés, and world-class rock climbing. Its prime location near the village and the stunning Blue Mountains is another reason guests return time and again.

Whether you’re here to explore or simply unwind, Waragil Cottage offers a beautiful blend of past and present—a place to relax, reconnect, and create lasting memories.
