Description

SOLE & EXCLUSIVE USE OF ENTIRE PROPERTY per booking. "Varenna" is NOT a B&B, you do not share with anyone, but yourselves. Completely and totally private and secluded romantic hideaway with "Attention to Detail being our hallmark". Varenna caters splendidly for honeymooners, or anywhere from one, two to three couples just wanting to get away. Nowhere else can compare!

Unsurpassed old world charm with the modern comforts of today, all within a 200m stroll to the heart of Leura.

Be enchanted by the grandeur and allow the soothing ambience of Varenna create that perfect stay. Whether it be for a weekend or a week. From the moment you enter the leadlight entrance, you are not only embraced by the warmth of the golden husk walls, but are soothed by the sounds of the soft piped music throughout which welcomes you in preparation for a stress-free stay. Step back into a bygone era which captures the old world charm so perfectly, with the modern comforts of today and only a 200m stroll to the heart of Leura, Blue Mountains, NSW.

This lavishly appointed and meticulously restored Edwardian residence is set on 1800 square metres of surrounding grounds and gardens. Purposely built in the Federation Queen Anne style circa 1906, Varenna was originally the home of Miss Matilda Cowper, the grand-daughter of Anglican Arch-Deacon William Cowper, who came from England to the colony in 1809 at the request of Reverend Samuel Marsden, and later became the first arch-deacon of the Cumberland parish. Her father was the Very Reverend William Macquarie Cowper (Dean of Sydney) and her uncle, Sir Charles Cowper, was five times Premier of New South Wales.
