EXCLUSIVE ACCOMMODATIONONLY FOUND VIA TOURING TREASURESA private conservation valley in the Greater Blue Mountains, two hours and a world away from Sydney.
Forty freestanding villas sit on 7,000 acres of protected wilderness, surrounded by sandstone cliffs and two national parks. Each villa has its own pool, a double-sided fireplace and a veranda facing the valley. Kangaroos and wombats graze outside. The 1832 homestead is still at the heart of the property, and every stay is all-inclusive.
