Cabbage Tree Cottage @ Hidden Valley Retreat Cottages

PROPERTY SETTING:
Hidden Valley Retreat Cottages is conveniently close to Sydney yet you couldn’t feel more removed from the hustle and bustle of daily life once you arrive. Set on 40 acres of pristine land near Kurrajong, in the Hawkesbury area, we are tucked away in the foothills of the Blue Mountains. This is the perfect place for anyone looking to relax in the peace and tranquillity of the rainforest, listening to the birds and the running water of the creek. Take a walk to enjoy the natural beauty of the wild, bushland that abounds, sip fine wine picked up on your day’s travel into the valley or sit by the open fire listening to your favourite music; do as much or as little as you like.

THE COTTAGE:
Cabbage Tree Cottage, named after the towering palm beside it, is a traditional settler-style log cabin with two bedrooms (a queen and a twin). Fresh linen and towels are provided and the beds have electric blankets. There's a basic kitchenette and private BBQ to cater for simple meals. The cottage boasts open fire and air-conditioning/heating as well as a double bath with jets. Go exploring down the creek behind the cottage, or simply look out from your veranda across the picturesque lawn taking in the beauty of the wilderness.

THE PROPERTY:
Cabbage Tree Cottage is one of five secluded, private, self-contained rustic cabins, each in their own separate area of forest on the property. They are available individually or as a group for up to 24 people. A tennis court is available for use up the hill at the main house.

Pets welcome by arrangement.

SIGHTS:
Nearby attractions include the beautiful botanical gardens of Mt Tomah, quaint Kurrajong village, Richmond markets and the historic Windsor all within 10 to 30 mins drive and well worth a visit. On our doorstep are two World Heritage National Parks, the Blue Mountains and the Wollomi, not to mention the Grose River ideal for a quick swim, or the mighty Hawkesbury River for more.

Relaxing Weekend Away
Myself and two mates arrived Friday afternoon and had a very relaxing evening by the fire. The following day we went for a short hike down toward the Grose Vale River from the nearest lookout. The remainder of the day was for relaxing in the sun by the cabin, exploring the small river running through the property and having a BBQ dinner beside the fire. The host was accommodating prior to arrival and we had our privacy whilst staying there. I will go back.

Lovely, quiet location, surrounded by bush.
We loved this property for its old-fashioned charm, quiet surroundings and serene outlook. We would like to see an update to some of the furnishings though. Whilst the cottage is charming, some of the furnishings are damaged or worn out. For example, the jet bath is very old and cracked all through; a modern shower and/or bath is essential. Apart from needing a freshen up, the cottage is a wonderful place to get away from the city. It is very quiet, comfortable and serene; the beds are conducive to a good nights' sleep, and there is plenty of room for pets to run. A breakfast hamper would be a nice touch.

Just what the doctor ordered!
My partner and I had a such amazing and peaceful experience. It was just so nice to get back to basics, have some technology downtime and enjoy the surroundings. The property had all we needed. We did a couple of lovely hikes over the weekend and enjoyed an afternoon at Hillbilly Cider. Highly recommend this property if you’re looking to get out of the city!!
