About this property

Escape to the luxury of your own mountain retreat

Escape to the luxury of your own mountain retreat. Relax and enjoy the sweet smells of the bushland while listening to the singing of the birds, and the wind whispering through the trees. Banksia Cottage offers a unique self-contained accommodation experience, beautifully nestled in tranquil Leura bushland, in the heart of the pristine Blue Mountains.

This modern cottage accommodates up to six people featuring two queen bedrooms and one twin single bedroom, two spacious bathrooms (one with a spa bath), a fully equiped gourmet kitchen, and sophisticated lounge with a modern gas-log fire place for cosy winter nights. Your group of friends or family will enjoy the scenic outlook complete with local bird life, either from the large sunny deck or cosy heated interior at any time of year. Leura Banksia Cottage is ideal accommodation for small intimate groups, corporate gatherings or families.

Banksia Cottage Leura is located in a cul-de-sac surrounded by the World Heritage listed Blue Mountains National Park and behind Leura Golf Course. It enjoys ideal access to the amenities and attractions of the Blue Mountains region where you can take advantage of the proximity of many of the best bush walks in the world!

If you're feeling active, cross the road and join the scenic bush walk along 'Lyrebird Dell' down to 'Gordon Falls' and expereince first hand the beauty of the 'Pool of Siloam'. Then sit back and enjoy a glass of wine on the private deck, take in the stunning bushland view and toss your worries to the wind!
