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. ##### Mark W.

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. ##### Jackie B.
