Illalangi is a luxurious mountain cottage boasting the beautiful combination of original charm and modern convenience. This classic weatherboard from the turn of the century, once the home of Blackheath's earliest baker and grocer, has been elegantly renovated to capture the quaint and cozy character of a bygone era while at the same time providing all the modern comforts you could wish for. A beautiful mountain retreat that offers countless luxuries such as a fully equipped gourmet country style eat-in kitchen, aged Italian leather lounge, wifi and large smart TV, newly renovated bathroom with underfloor heating and bath, separate sun-splashed sitting room, slow combustion wood fire, aircon, and an oversized outdoor patio with fire pit area, BBQ, outdoor dining and lounge area overlooking the peaceful mountain garden. All to capture the real mountain cabin atmosphere. There is ample accommodation for 6 people, with two luxurious queen sized rooms, and a third bedroom with cozy single bunk beds. This is a place to enjoy a cup of tea while soaking up the sunshine on the back deck, or take a lungful of the clear mountain air while strolling around the fruit orchard in the garden. Enjoy the quietness, relaxing with a good book in the sitting room, or cook up a feast in the gourmet kitchen. The choice is yours.

Blackheath has so much to offer, from fantastic access to spectacular bush walks through the world heritage national park, to amazing lookouts with breathtaking views. Take a stroll into the village and visit any of the numerous high quality cafés, restaurants, galleries and bakeries, or meander throughout the old cinema-turned-antique market hunting for some treasures of yesteryear. It is a 7 minute walk into town (and the train station) and a 12 minute drive to Katoomba.
