Nestled in a rural oasis beneath stunning sandstone escarpment, it is renowned for its Devonshire tea, home-made apple pies (my favourite!), delicious home-style cooking and good old fashioned country hospitality.

Angie and her party stayed at Brantwood in June and she has written this brilliant piece on Brantwood Cottage. We are ever so grateful for her kind words; the way she has so beautiful captured the essence of Brantwood. Makes us feel very proud - and makes it all the more rewarding for the work we put into the cottage. Angie also made mention of some local businesses, cafes, restaurants and attractions - a real rap for the Upper Blue Mountains. </span></div><div closure_uid_hsdcoq="120"><br />

By the grace of God nobody was hurt. Brantwood was spared, thankfully, but some other places weren't so fortunate. Towering pines and ghost gums fell, leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. The Firies, SES, Endeavour Energy and local volunteers have been working tirelessly. Such a brave community, all pulling together, resilient, helpful and courageous - all of them, heroes.</span></span><br />

It'll remain that way into the night. Endeavour Energy last night announced that 7000 homes would remain without power this morning with the restoration effort resuming today.

This is encouraging news for the community. It may be romantic to spend a night or two by candlelight and a roaring log fire, but no central heating, no functioning kitchen and no hot water is far from fun in these chilly conditions.</span></div>Brantwood Cottage, Blackheathhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11995120151649607795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2353930312153417971.post-65475750996636721202011-06-25T19:30:00.001+10:002011-07-22T16:16:49.449+10:00Yulefest 2011 is here!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div closure_uid_yzdntz="107"><span class="messageBody" data-ft="{"type":3}"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It's Yulefest in the Blue Mountains.
