You can plan your day or don't plan your day - just let it evolve... Prepare a delicious breakfast including fresh organic fruit from the garden, while taking in the fresh mountain air and magnificent views off the deck!

THE MOUNTAIN VIEW RETREAT IS FOOD FOR YOUR SOUL...

As you witness the dance of the evening sky unfold with crimson, red, purple and orange colours washing across the sky, enjoy a memorable evening with your friends and family while cooking up a storm in the beautiful alfresco dining area, using fresh herbs and spices from the garden!

At the end of the day, what could be better than relaxing in the stunning outdoor spa with a glass of local wine whilst you admire the incredible views?

Top the evening off with your friends or family by watching your favourite flick in the home cinema in stunning high definition and surround by a well deserved rest in one of the super comfy beds dreaming about all the wonderful memories you created that day...

We all absolutely loved the Mountain Retreat
It is just so beautiful and calming - which was very much appreciated after 2 weeks of catching up with family and friends which is wonderful but also exhausting. We only wish we were able to stay longer.

A heavenly escape
We have had the most amazing experience on our 'Spa Ladies weekend Pamper package '. This stunning home is beautifully designed and takes advantage of the most breathtaking views. The Massage therapist was an amazing lady who pampered us each with an hour of relaxation and deep tissue or relaxing massage according to our individual needs. The facials were so calming and we came away feeling very relaxed and refreshed. The talented chef arrived early the Friday evening and set about cooking us a delicious 3 course meal. It was a fabulous experience being able to watch him work while we sat around the dinner table in excited anticipation. The serene ambience of the home, fantastic views and thoughtful little touches resulted in my girlfriends and I having the most laid back, relaxing and destressing weekend we've had in a long time. I would not hesitate in the least to recommend this home to anyone and in fact have already planned to return next year for the Spa Ladies weekend again.

An absolutely amazing property fit for a relaxing time away!
Such an easy process from start to finish, great communication with Larissa - no request was out of reach. Loved that the heat was on for our arrival. However was a little disappointed that the fire pit was not stacked and ready for us to light (no matches provided) for a weekend away with the girls (no smokers) we weren’t able to use the fire pit to its advantage as we couldn’t get it started. Spa was wonderful and in a perfect location on the property out of the wind :) beds were beautifully clean, comfortable and ‘warm’. 5 stars for this property as it is absolutely stunning and the host was extremely easy to make contact.

A peaceful and relaxing break after a very busy Christmas,
Our holiday at the property at Wongawallan was just what we were after - a beautiful home in a stunning location. We loved the large deck looking out on trees and mountains. The family enjoyed the outdoor spa and we enjoyed our "happy hours" all together on the deck each afternoon. We hope to come back again. Trish, Brisbane

Stunning house and location! Lovely owners!
We stayed here with our family for our wedding at the Botanic Gardens. It was the perfect place to get ready and catch up with family. Everyone was blown away by the views and all the amazing details of the house. The owners are so thoughtful and it was easy and a pleasure to communicate with them. Could not have been more magical!

Best Girls Weekend Experience!
8 great Girls, 1 amazing house, close location to the Gold Coast and we couldnt have had a better time. Every girl has messaged me saying we must make this an annual stay. Its just got everything. Comfy beds and pillows, entertainment theatre, outdoor spa, a gorgeous deck with a comfortable couch with views and you just feel like your in the hunter valley rather than 20 mins drive from my home in Gold Coast! The photos dont actually do this home justice. Larissa is easy to deal with and answered any questions quickly and hassle free. Highly recommend this stay for anyone.

Huge house and land, do you like fireplace? Do you like cinema room? Do you like spa? Do you like private bar? Do you like massive rooms and feeling like a fancy person? If you answered yes to any of these then you will not be disappointed.

Great weekend
I organised a mystery weekend with my family and friends . This venue was absolutely perfect for the nine of us. Plenty of room and quality facilities. The peaceful ambience of the property was awesome. The 2 night stay enabled us to enjoy all the property had to offer. The owners certainly presented first class accomodation. A big thank you. My only problem is I have set the bar very high for next years mystery weekend.

About the host

Hosted by Larissa Carrus

Host profile image
I love nature photography, bush walking, going to the beach, camping, kayaking, gardening and growing my own fruit and vegetables. Travelling to new places and meeting new people. I love to share this part of the world with people, and let them experience what it's like to live in harmony with nature. I believe life was meant to be simple and I like to remind people that we are a part of nature and by taking care of it in turn we are taking care of ourselves.

Why they chose this property

This is a place where you can leave all your worries behind. It's a place that re-energizes and rejuvenates the mind, body and soul. Set amongst pristine nature, wake to nothing but the sounds of birds singing. Get high on the fresh mountain air while enjoying the magnificent views from the large timber deck. Take a stroll through the lush gardens and pick yourself some fresh seasonal fruit for breakfast while you greet the local wildlife. Kookaburra's, Wallabies, King Parrots, Koala's, Rosella's, Rainbow Lorikeets and Wedge Tail Eagles are all at home here. You will leave here feeling reconnected to your purpose and inspired to live a healthier, happier and more fulfilled life.

What makes this property unique

Bordering a protected national park and set high up in the mountains you really can't get much closer to nature. While also being completely comfortable in your very own luxurious mountain retreat with all the creature comforts. You will find yourself using every excuse not to leave this wonderful place.
