Took us around 1hr 30 mins to drive to Berrima, its a lovely drive from Sydney and when you leave the city you feel a sense of relief!
The first view we had when arriving at our cottage, we loved it instantly!
The really comfortable and cute lounge room where we chilled out with many bottles of wine
The kitchen in the main cottage – basic but had everything we needed
Our lovely surprise sweets!
The details count!
The owners left us a loadf of break made locally as well as some sweets and jams, what a nice touch!
The kitchen has the authentic original door and wall dating back to when the cottage was first made! The owners have incorporated it into the modern building that is there now, we really appreciated this detail and made it even more special
The bedroom outside the cottage which was mine
Bedroom 1 inside the main cottage
Bedroom 2 inside the main cottage
Love how they were both decorated in their own ways but in similar bright colours
The main bathroom in the cottage, large and clean
Just off the veranda upon entry is another side room with an additonal room woth a double bed and ensuite, this was my room and I loved it! very cute and secluded with its own kettle, fridge and coffee/tea
My cute room with a back door to the patio and BBQ
My cute little “fireplace”- the room was decorated in such a nice colourful way, funny enough, all my favourite colours
The ensuite to my room – loving the towel colours!
The trees just outside our cottages were so beautiful
The location of the cottage was FANTASTIC in relation to the town centre, it was right on the north side closest to Sydney and you could walk all the way down the main street to the other end – great location!

All in all, this cottage was just gorgeous!!! If you want 3 seperate bedrooms with their own ensuites then this place is for you. Yes, you pay for it but you do have everything you need here in this cottage for an season, heater when its cold and aircon when its hot, 4 bathrooms all in all and the seperate room which I had to myself, so in a small cottage there is still many places to sit and enjpy the solitude even with many people around

If you are happy to pay the price, I am all for this cottage! The owners are lovely and they leave you to your own privacy which we liked and not only that, they left us local goodies to enjoy!
