We loved our stay at Cecil's chair. From the moment you turn the key & step into panoramic views of the valley, everything about this home has been thoughtfully considered & we all can't wait to come back & stay longer. Comfortable spacious bedrooms, multiple living spaces & well equipped kitchen, peace & tranquility-what more could we want!

The views from the living room and bathroom were spectacular! The artwork was interesting and eclectic. Comfy beds. The kitchen was stocked with nearly every cooking utensil you could need. Lots of books and puzzles. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful cottage in perfect surroundings. The view is unbelievable, I can't imagine finding better in the Blue Mountains. The Reidl family are amazing hosts, nothing is too much trouble for them. The cottage is thoughtfully appointed with everything you could ask for in hand. The spa bath overlooking the Megalong Valley is a once in a lifetime experience. Simply magical.

Nice cozy place at the corner of the street overlooking the valley.
Only issue for me was, the steep credit card surcharge to make the balance payment through the real estate agent’s website. I would have preferred to pay the balance amount using the stayz website which was not possible.

I love it when you get to your destination and the property exceeds your expectations. We just loved this cottage, with its stunning views from the living areas and the bathroom, and the three big bedrooms. The kitchen is well-equipped and there is a separate living area if you MUST watch tv. We just watched the views, endlessly, and started reading some of the books - a great library so you don't need to bring anything. But you will need plenty of time to finish them! It is a property full of character which suits its location and is just such a relaxing, peaceful place. Thank you for sharing.

Our second visit to Cecil's Chair. It always feels so special when you walk through the door and see the view into the valley. The bathroom also has an amazing view. Fabulous books to browse as you sit in the comfy chairs and watch the ever changing view. We will be back.

We love Blackheath and Cecil’s chair is the perfect mountain house. We couldn’t come this year but received a full refund despite late notice due to Covid ambush. Susi is an outstanding host, we have already rebooked for next year.
