Quietly luxurious. Utterly unforgettable.

Experience Australian luxury
at Mt Kanimbla Retreats

Lose yourself in the raw beauty of the World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains. Perched high on Mt Kanimbla, this secluded retreat set on 36 acres offers front-row views to one of Australia’s most awe-inspiring landscapes - where misty escarpments, deep valleys, and untouched wilderness stretch as far as the eye can see.

Vogue Living named this one of the "Best Stays in the Blue Mountains" and it’s easy to see why. Here, luxury meets the wild. Each of the three luxury cabins has been thoughtfully placed to take full advantage of the landscape - from treetop stone baths and private lookouts to sun-drenched interiors styled with warmth and soul. Soak in a treetop stone bath beneath a canopy of stars, sip wine beside a crackling fire, or simply unwind as wallabies pass by your cabin.

This is where romance, stillness, and the Australian bush come together: a place to reconnect, recharge, and enjoy something truly special. Experience a deeply restorative, unforgettable escape in one of Australia’s most breathtaking settings.

Mt Kanimbla Retreats - where mindful luxury meets mountain calm.

Mt Wilson Gardens

The tiny village of Mt Wilson is famous for its spectacular spring and autumn displays.

What the village lacks in shops and cafes (charmingly, there are none of either) it makes up for in stunning, historic private gardens that burst into a torrent of flowers every spring and vibrant red, yellow and orange leaves from April til June every year.

Each garden is a serene delight for romantics, nature lovers, and families. Take a picnic and a camera and enjoy a feast for the senses.

This place is amazing. Exceeded expectations. We stayed in the Hilltop Cabin. Private, well appointed, luxurious, clean, spacious, romantic, and finished to such a high standard. Oh, and did I mention the views. At night we watched lightning dancing above the hills in the distance. During the day we relaxed to rolling greens as far as the eye can see. Kangaroos at the cabin door, black cockatoos ganging in the trees. Peace and quiet. Australia at its best. So good. - John

"Hilltop Cabin is a pure expression of Upward’s desire to conserve and share her world with others. It is a private lookout, an antidote to urban life and a romantic rendezvous in what I know to be one of the most special places on Earth." - Vogue

Amazing!!! I was speechless when I arrived. The views were breathtaking and the place itself is perfection- so charming, stylish and peaceful. The bathtubs were definitely a highlight- thank you. - Jacinta

Absolutely amazing place. Every attention to detail has been considered. The hosts have gone above and beyond in each aspect of the accommodation and it ensures an amazing experience. The location is fantastic and the views are amazing. 11/10 Cannot recommend this place enough! - Narvaez

Truly magnificent! Luxury and comfort and lots of beautiful trimmings to make it that extra bit special. We knew it would be a great place to stay but it blew our expectations away. I’m not going to list the little touches as you need to find out for yourself but wow what a place and what a location! Just magical! - Darryl
