Rustic Spirit is a secluded mountain hideaway nestled beside the Wollemi National Park in the Blue Mountains. The property contains 3 bushland cabins, a garden cottage and private guesthouse. Rustic Spirit offers the conscious guest a nature escape to indulge the body, sooth the mind and replenish the spirit.

In an increasingly hectic and frantic world we all need time out to reconnect with life’s beauty. Life is a gift for us to enjoy and as life becomes busier it often passes us by. Rustic Spirit is one of those rare places where we can stop and just be.

This establishment has become renowned as the ultimate romantic getaway in NSW, winning many awards over the years. Many of our guests return annually for their anniversary.

Additional Information

CABIN DETAILS
Set higher up the landscape with panoramic garden and woodland views, ‘paddock’ is a traditional red cedar cabin with a separate queen bedroom for that extra privacy with convenient access to the main guesthouse. We have three other cabins each with their points of difference. 2 rock edged, split level cabins surrounded by treetops and views of the gully with sounds of a burbling brook. The other is a 2 bedroom garden view cabin, ideal for families of 4, and offers a detached, but private, bathhouse.

All have comfortable lounge complete with wood burning fireplace, TV-DVD and blue tooth sound system for that evening of sharing and relaxation. Paddock and our 2 bedroom cabin have slightly better mobile connectivity than the other cottages for those who need to stay connected.

Spacious bathroom with double spa, separate shower, heated towel racks, candles, organic liquid soaps, dead sea salts and cotton bathrobes – all the essentials for indulging and pampering your body, mind and spirit to a blissful state of harmony, relaxation and romance.

Fully self-contained, well-appointed kitchen with dining table – stove, oven and microwave with basic cooking ingredients like cooking oil, balsamic vinegar, salt & pepper etc. provided.

Large, north facing, very private verandah complete with gas BBQ, outdoor settings with tranquil garden and bushland views. Paddock is our choice for those who wish to bring the family pet as it has a more secure verandah and garden setting.

Was such a lovely stay! Adrian and Marianne were lovely! Right in the heart of Bilpin/Kurrajong area but felt like you were in the middle of the bush.

I completely missed that it was a B&B, so was a ...welcome surprise when I realised a full breakfast was included every morning which was delish! Fresh juice, small starter, and a main + tea or coffee.

Our cabin had everything we needed, and still felt super private even though we were a quick walk away from the main house for breakfast

Being dog friendly was also fab as we could bring our puppy along with us! And there was plenty of space for her to run around.

Little to no reception in the cabin which was perfect for a device detox, but still had wifi in the main house just in case we needed it.

We largely just bunkered in and switched off, but we were a short drive away from the pub or restaurants if we didn't feel like cooking.

I don’t generally like leaving bad reviews, but the host would not speak with me about the issues we had.

The overall property and area were nice, but our cabin was different from the pictures and t...he expectation we were given from the advert. It was not very private and there were issues with dust and bugs.

This would not be an issue, had we not been given the expectation that this would be a luxury setting.
