Bedford Cottage - Cosy mountain bush retreat.

Located in the middle of the Blue Mountains this original 100-year-old cottage is the perfect place for a cosy, romantic getaway. Newly renovated, it is surrounded by large beautiful gums, close to stunning bushwalks, waterholes, and waterfalls. The cottage is set on an 8-acre block, is private, and feels a world away, yet is 4km from shops and the Great Western Highway and a great base to explore the rest of the Blue Mountains.
The cottage includes a bedroom with a queen bed, a living area with a day bed, board games and books, a fully equipped kitchen, a combustion stove, and reverse cycle air conditioning.
There is a campfire and BBQ area to relax around whilst listening to the birdlife.
We have consciously made choices with the fittings, linen, etc. to be as ethical and sustainable as possible. The sheets, towels, tea towels, cushion covers, and floor mat are all made with natural materials, using sustainable and ethical principles. The personal and household cleaning products were also chosen for their sustainability.
Things to note:
It is an unsealed driveway and it is a little steep and narrow in the last 40m so you can park at the shed and walk or choose to park out front. We can drive our VW Golf to the cottage but it can look a little daunting when you first see it.
We do have dogs on the property, they are friendly and may visit but they are not allowed inside the cottage.
Most of all Bedford Cottage is about the "vibe", relaxing and enjoying the simple life.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, which features a fireplace. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Conveniences include a safe and a microwave.
Take in the views from a garden.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Everything you need to a weekend away
This spot was truly incredible. It was beautifully tucked away in the bus and the ability to have an outdoor fire to cook make the weekend that much better.

Amazing stay
We had an amazing stay at the Bedford cottage. The cottage in itself is very cosy and well maintained, it has everything you need. The fireplace is fantastic in the winter. The bed is super comfy too. The surroundings are very peaceful, and the hosts very good with communication. We’ll be back for sure!!

A cozy cottage getaway
Simply put, it’s a lovely little cottage. It’s well put together and well equipped for cooking and the cold. It just works. The location is amazing, both quiet and private. We are certainly going to be back and certainly for much longer. The lit up entrance way just made the place all the more charming when we arrived as well.

Perfect Retreat
We stayed over a long weekend and the place was perfect. The cottage was as described and was perfect to relax, enjoy a fire and take in the surroundings. Also very close to all the local walks and sights. We loved it and will be back next time we are in the Blue Mountains.

Cozy, cute, clean
We came here to stay for one night but immediately fell in love with this place and were thrilled to have been able to extend the stay by one night. Brian and Carolyn were fantastic hosts with excellent communication that went above and beyond. The cottage...OMG is it cute....well appointed, immaculately clean, and wonderfully secluded to wake up to the birds singing. Thank you for an unforgettable experience in Aussie land!!!! We would be thrilled to come back again!!!!

Magical, fantastical?
Bedford cottage is in an idyllic location. It boasts a cozy living room, a wonderfully comfortable Queen bed with high quality linens in the bed room, a bathroom equipped with a walk in shower, a much appreciated heat lamp and good for the environment toiletries. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped. We appreciated the coffee and milk, the tea and hot chocolate. The fireplace helped take the chill out of the air...in short, our stay was lovely. Thank you, Brian and Carolyn for being very attentive hosts. We would come back in a heartbeat.
