TREETOPS RETREAT

Nestled among the tall trees of the Blue Mountains, Treetops Retreat is an exceptional timber-lined mountain lodge that seamlessly combines seclusion with convenience. Set on a sprawling native bush block, this spacious home, featuring cathedral ceilings and stunning escarpment views, provides a serene escape perfect for families and groups seeking tranquillity.

Upon entering, you’re greeted by a generous open-plan living area with a cosy atmosphere, enhanced by a unique circular fireplace. The lounge area offers multiple seating options, Smart TVs, and a selection of DVDs for entertainment. Adjoining this space is a large dining area and a fully equipped kitchen, featuring a gas cooktop, oven, microwave, fridge, and dishwasher.

The retreat comfortably accommodates families and groups with four well-appointed bedrooms and a total of nine beds, sleeping up to 12 guests (maximum of 8 adults). The master bedroom boasts a Queen bed and ensuite, while the other rooms include a mix of double and single beds. The modern bathrooms include 2.5 facilities, with walk-in showers, a bath, and an additional separate toilet.

Guests appreciate the spaciousness of the lodge, complemented by central heating, ceiling fans, and reverse-cycle air conditioning to ensure year-round comfort.

Outdoor areas are equally impressive, featuring a spacious deck with breathtaking panoramic views of the escarpment, a barbecue area, and a firepit surrounded by comfortable seating. These spaces are ideal for alfresco dining and evening gatherings under the stars.

Situated on a large bushland block, Treetops Retreat offers off-street, undercover parking for three cars. Despite its peaceful seclusion, the lodge is conveniently close to the town centre, with Katoomba, Leura, and Blackheath just a short drive away.

Great Views

Overall we had a good stay there were a few small matters that would have been better. The oven didn't work and weren't advised prior to arrival, BBQ rusty plates couldn't use. A few other small things uncomfortable bed, fan not working. However lovely lushious towels, views were lovely - just need more chairs for balcony. Home was a pleasant stay and a lovely spot to unwind.

The Serenity 👍👍

All around amazing. Veranda is large, safe for toddlers, and showcases an amazing view, sunrise, and sunset. The kitchen is well accessorised making meals a pleasure. There is a fireplace making cold mornings and afternoons incredibly cozy. Unlike some accomodations they provided a high chair, travel cot, more than enough tea towels, garbage bags, and toilet paper. I was thrilled to arrive, sad to leave, and had a most peaceful and pleasurable experience. Highly recommend.

Amazing house for families, young kids, or large groups. Large safe balcony with an incredible view, sunrise and sunset. Very large house, indoor fireplace and outdoor fire pit. There is heating and cooling available. A high chair, travel cot, and even a cupboard full of toys. The kitchen is well accessorised making cooking a pleasure. Short drive to town. Pleasurable, peaceful....highly recommend.

Feels like home!!

This was our second stay at Treetops and we’ll be back in 2020. House is super clean! Kitchen stocked with all essentials to make a brekky on stove, oven trays avail to use the oven. Beds are comfy and spare. Landers are readily available. Two TVs allowed us to chill with a movie on the lounge and also watch movie on upstairs tv while crafting at the dining table. The owner Eric is so lovely! I’ve actually met him as last year I left my Apple Watch in the bathroom.. I called him and he told me he’d licked it away. We organized a meeting point for me to collect it from him at later date. What honesty!! There is Katoomba Marketplace only 5 mins drive away with Big W, Woolworths and ALDI available. We don’t want to leave but will be back in 2020! Go ahead and book.. you won’t be disappointed!

Great quiet location, well designed home

Lovely comfortable and great family home, close to the Hydro where we enjoyed a delicious high tea, horse riding at Blackheath and shopping in Leura Unfortunately it isn’t as clean as it should be, l had to clean the bath tub before we used it, and when l opened a chest for an extra pillow there was a stale biscuit!! I suspect the sheets in one of the bedrooms had not been changed so we didn’t use that room. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils but effective cleaning is required! Eric is great, access was easy and internet was good!

Wonderful Mountain Retreat

We stayed 5 nights at Treetops and these went by very quickly. We found Treetops Retreat to be a wonderful fuss free place for families to gather, disconnect from busy city lives; and reconnect with each other as well as the nature. Great sweeping views and fresh air. We were blessed with snow over two of the five days that we were in Katoomba. We had fun playing with snow in the garden as well as the driveway. Definitely a highlight is the central heating which was available throughout the house and even the bathrooms. We really appreciated being warm and cosy in the cottage when outside it was windy, snowing and less than 1 degree Celsius. We enjoyed lighting the fire in the fireplace as well. A treat for us who are from the tropics. Everything was in good working order and Eric was very efficient to respond to and attend to our request when we got in touch with him. Overall, we would recommend the Treetops Retreat for a place to relax and just unwind, yet still be very centrally located to all main attractions, i.e. Scenic World, Three Sisters, Sublime Point and our personal favourite Leura Village. Oh, if anyone fancies sticky date pudding, we recommend the unassuming Savoy restaurant in Katoomba town centre. Delicious! Thanks Eric for sharing your lovely cottage with us!
