Riddell Cottage A Victorian Hideaway in Town

Boasting a central position just one block from town, this stunning heritage-listed home provides an idyllic base in the heart of Mudgee. Stroll down to the local shops and eateries, relax in Lawson Park on the banks of Cudgegong River, or discover Mudgee’s renowned wineries all within 10 minutes’ drive. This late Victorian cottage combines old-world charm with contemporary finishes and air-conditioned interiors. Gather around the fire pit for an evening wine before relaxing in the luxury bath.
Arriving at this gorgeous property you will instantly be captivated by its charm. Built in the late 1800s, it retains much of its original detail, then adds all the modern luxuries needed for an enviable country escape. Myriad alfresco areas encourage guests to take a moment in the fresh air, with a BBQ, ambient festoon lighting and a fire pit to enjoy over some of the region’s renowned wine.

The property has been beautifully styled with unique artwork, antique furnishings and warm timber. A spacious dining room equipped with air-conditioning encourages groups to gather for a meal at home, making use of Mudgee’s delicious fresh produce. The kitchen comes well equipped for your holiday catering, with an oven, stove and traditional butlers’ sink. Through the kitchen you’ll find the living room, fitted with a plush leather lounge and TV. This space opens through French doors to the courtyard, presenting a lovely transition between indoors and out.

Each of the two bedrooms are set with queen-sized beds, side tables, and reading lights, while ceiling fans keep things comfortable. Travelling with an infant?

Fabulous stay in Mudgee
The cottage was everything we’d hoped for. A short walk into town to a great choice of coffee and breakfast options, plus only a 10-15 min drive out to some great wineries. We’ll be back!

Weekend Getaway
One of those times when the property not only lives up to its expectation but surpasses them.Arriving late Friday nightentry via the keyless door was great and each room was so nice. My wife loved everything about it. Position was perfect as only a short walk to the main street so driving was minimal. Would have liked a local to do book on premises though. Mudgee itself also lived up to its hype. Food, wine, cafes, pubs and restaurants were all wonderful. Highly recommend.

Riddell cottage
We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely cottage. The location is so close to central Mudgee. Everything we needed was in walking distance. The cottage itself was perfect for us. Warm and cozy as it was quite wet during our stay. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to friends and family.

Perfect Location and Immaculate Cottage
Our stay at Riddell Cottage exceeded expectations. The location offers convenient access to amenities, pubs, and cafes. The cottage was impeccably presented and the cleanliness and attention to detail were truly exceptional. The cottage was not only spotless but also tastefully decorated, creating an inviting and comfortable atmosphere that instantly put us at ease. The beds were a dream to sleep in - we were treated to the utmost comfort and restfulness. The quality of the mattresses and bedding ensured that we woke up refreshed and ready for another day of adventures. We were delighted that both the front and back gardens of the cottage provided a generous amount of room for our dog to enjoy whilst being a secure and well-maintained outdoor space. There were numerous dog-friendly places to eat and drink nearby, which made dining out with our furry friend a breeze. One of our favourite spots in the house was the front porch. With its strategic position, we were able to bask in the warm winter sun while sipping on a cup of tea. This cosy corner quickly became our go-to spot for relaxation and reflection, offering a serene setting to unwind after a day of exploration. The kitchen was another highlight of our stay. It was well-equipped making cooking a breeze, whether we were preparing a simple breakfast or indulging in a more elaborate meal. Our stay at Riddell Cottage was truly exceptional. Without a doubt, we highly recommend this house for a wonderful and memorable stay.
