Katherine is a great communicator, the Blacksmith cottage was super comfy with everything you need in the kitchen. There is a log fireplace. There are 2 bedrooms up stairs, one with a double bed, the other with two singles. The stairs would not suit anyone with mobility issues due to the bathroom being downstairs. There is no washing machine and as someone who has lived through a few droughts I understand this decision. The entry to the property is quite discreet and could be missed as you are on a main highway. There is an abundance of birdlife, we saw a huge white bellied sea eagle on a number of days. I would stay at Lisdillon cottages again.
