A magical stay!
From the moment we drove up the tree lined driveway we felt we were miles from anywhere, yet only minutes from the town centre. The cottage was everything that was promised in words and pictures. Our family of five adults and three month old could not have had a more relaxing, wonderful time. Our host was generous, informative and very helpful. We are all looking forward to staying again at this magical place.

Great Stay
Heaton Cottage is a great place for groups to stay. The cottage and adjacent rooms are perfect for groups of friends (or family) and the cottage itself is charming, well presented, comfortable and very private. We had 4 couples stay for 3 nights and had no issues at all.The cottage is within walking distance of town and has all the amenities you would hope for.We would recommend Heaton Cottage to anyone.

The perfect property in a perfect location
We were a group of 6 people staying in Mudgee for a birthday weekend. We could not have asked for a more perfect place to stay. The cottage is beautifully furnished and maintained, with incredibly comfortable beds, chairs sofas etc. It is perfectly located, being just over a 10 minute walk into town, but the property location is stunning, peaceful and tranquil. I wish we could have stayed longer, but will definitely be back!

Fabulous Girl’s weekend
We are nine ladies who have just spent a fabulous long Weekend in beautiful Heaton cottage. The location is perfect, we walked into town to go shopping. The gardens are spectacular and we sat down next to the river most afternoons and it was just beautiful. The beds are all really comfortable. And the house is gorgeous. I have stayed there before and hopefully will stay there again.

Perfect cosy winter getaway
We are a group of friends who enjoy regular country getaways.
Heaton Cottage was perfect for our group with most being able to have their own rooms.
There were so many lovely inclusions including farm fresh eggs and a fully prepared open fire which we used a lot.
The house has lovely grounds and is located a short walk from town.
Julie was delightful to deal with and the house is very well appointed with comfortable beds.
We would highly recommend a stay at Heaton Cottageincluding

We stayed with our family in the cottage for a wedding. The house was well equipped with everything we needed for the weekend.
The grounds looked beautiful but unfortunately unable to enjoy with rain the whole time. Very close to the shops. We would stay again with a group next time in Mudgee

A perfect weekend home
We stayed at Heaton Cottage as a small work-friend getaway, which was absolutely perfect. Julie is an excellent host, and the house is exceptionally well-presented and equipped - especially for a larger group of adults who want personal space. Each room had a comfy queen bed, and it was excellent to have breakie supplies provided, which is increasingly absent in other short-term listings. The grounds are immaculately maintained, and it is so close to town, yet it feels like you're in the country.
I highly recommend and would love to come back
