For larger dogs which can clear fences we have a large kennel at the back of the garden for when your out & about.

We are only minutes drive from the majestic Wolgan Valley, a 15 minute drive from Lithgow and approx. 2.5 hours North west of sydney.

Within a close drive you’ll find several significant Aboriginal sacred sites including Maiyingu Marragu (Blackfellows hands) which is a collection of Aboriginal hand stencils dating back 50,000 years and also several aboriginal burial sites in the area.

The bushwalking trails include the pipeline track, which goes from Newnes to Glen Davis, the Wolgan valley heritage trail, as well as the trail from Newnes to the glow-worm tunnel.

There are many dirt bike tracks, 4WD tracks, camping grounds that are open to the public. The valley also contains numerous slot canyons and is popular for rock climbing.

Lake Wallace and lake Lyell are both in close proximity and are perfect for fishing, canoeing and jet skiing.

The vineyards in Mudgee & Orange are also great day trips.

Wallerawang is our local village approximately 10 minutes drive from the house where you’ll find a local store for all your shopping needs.

There’s a great cafe at the old train station in Wallerawang serving great coffee & breakfast. The pie shop further downtown does amazing homemade pies, sausage rolls and takeaway food. The Chinese restaurant is definitely worth a try but they do not deliver.

For fine dining you will have to venture to Lithgow, the blue fox bar and kitchen is highly recommended plus the Ambermere Inn in little Hartley is definitely a destination for all you food lovers.

The tin shed in Lithgow also does a mean coffee, breakfast & lunch.

The secret creek cafe & restaurant in Lithgow caters for vegans.

Satisfied stay
Property was well presented and quite neat. Facilities were very good and great kitchen and outside cooking area. Only negatives would be only having 1 toilet for the group we had and lack of towel hanging. A second toilet would be a huge advantage. Other than that we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Has all the bells and whistles
What a fabulous well appointed cottage. We arrived to a bottle of wine and a spotless tastefully decorated home. Scott has thought of everything from dog bowls to a prepared fire. The bed was comfy, it has a hotel style bathroom, a chefs kitchen with everything you could need. They have catered for a houseful with ample glass and dinnerware and dining space for 6+. There are doors from the kitchen dining that open onto onto a screened in porch that is decked out with bbq, pizza oven and plenty of seating. There is a huge backyard for the woofers and a peaceful view. The living area is cosy with a slow combustion fire, good sofas for binging netflix. Scott responded quickly to any questions and couldn't make his home any more welcoming or well set up.

We loved our weekend away here. Fireplace was so warm without the smoky smell, kitchen layout was great with a centre table, enormous backyard. Playground for the kids was just up the road. Very nicely decorated and great hosts who answered queries really quickly. Would highly recommend.

Brilliant!!
I couldn’t fault anything! From communication with Scott, to location, to the wonderful accommodation, everything was just so easy and so perfect. As well as being beautifully designed and decorated, this home had everything one could ask for and more. The back garden was ideal for my two dogs who had a ball from the moment we arrived. This was by far the most relaxing holiday I’ve had in a very long time and I would definitely recommend this property in a heartbeat. Thanks Scott (and thanks for the wine and treats for the pups!)

Quiet relaxing stay in beautifully restored cottage
We were after a character filled cottage with a wood fire where we could relax with our little pooch. This certainly ticked all the boxes and more, from the super comfy beds, amazing bath, well stocked kitchen, pizza oven and extra heating. All questions were answered promptly and nothing was too much trouble for the host. Thank you for sharing a little piece of relaxation paradise with us

Great stay
The house was exactly as per photos, and pretty much everything you would need for a week or more of comfortable living. My biggest concern was keeping warm, and I just shouldn’t have worried. The kitchen was very well equipped, and although the laundry wasn’t used in the end, it was brilliant having that extra room to store suitcase/bags and deal with outdoor things if necessary. Scott was the most patient and helpful of hosts, very prompt replies, and very generous in supplying a welcome treat for us, and one for the dog. Would definitely use as a base again - ideal central spot for getting to anywhere in the Blue Mountains and out towards Mudgee etc as we wanted to do both.

The cottage has a homely feel to it once you walk in, then surprised us how thoughtful Scott is with providing us with a bottle of wine & treats to our fur baby on arrival. The place was tastefully decorated and the attention to details was spot on. Had all the things we needed plus more. Thank you Scott.

Scott's place is amazing and so much thought has been put into it. All the small little details make for some lovely personal touches . Very homely, stylish and comfortable. We loved every minute of our stay. The tyre swing in the garden was a treat as was the patio area out the back. Would recommended it to anyone looking to get away for a quiet and peaceful escape.

The property was so beautiful and everything was well provided! It was so peaceful in the evenings and mornings with a rooster nearby for your morning wakeup call! The hot water went out at one point and Scott was able to send someone out immediately to fix that for us! The kitchen and cooking features of this home was definitely a highlight, being able to cook and add to their collection of people who enjoy cooking at this beautiful kitchen was very sweet! Overall the design and look of the property was fantastic, the renovation is very new and interior design is top notch! Honestly can't wait to come back here again and stay longer!

Hidden Gem, beautifully presented, well equipped and some very welcoming extra touches
Loved our time at Robson Cottage, welcomed with a bottle of wine and a pre-prepared fireplace ready to light. The home was impeccably presented with some really unique and enjoyable features throughout the house. The location was nice and easy getting around then retiring to a beautiful country relaxing home with gorgeous bath. I always pack a bag of essentials just in case the property is missing items, but I didn't have to pull out a thing. Thank you Scott you have been an awesome host we would love to come back again
