Illalangi

About Illalangi

A luxurious boutique cottage boasting the beautiful combination of original charm and modern convenience. Illalangi is a renovated turn-of-the-century weatherboard home with a story — its earliest owners were Blackheath's first baker and the village grocer, and the cottage still carries the warmth of that era in every timber-lined room.
