Buru Retreat, Secluded Couples Escape, Spa & Walks

Looking for a beautiful, secluded house for a couple’s getaway in the Blue Mountains? Look no further, Buru Retreat has it all.

Tucked away on the quieter western side of Blackheath, the home offers peace and privacy, yet the village centre is just 400 metres away — the best of both worlds. For bushwalking enthusiasts, the access track to Centennial Glen and Porters Pass is only 200 metres from your door, leading straight into the heart of the mountains.

Designed for Couples
Buru Retreat is a spacious yet cosy hideaway, perfect for a romantic escape. The open-plan living, dining and kitchen areas are thoughtfully laid out so each space feels intimate while still flowing together.
Step outside and you’ll find:
• A private front deck overlooking the landscaped garden
• Mature hedging that creates a peaceful, secluded feel
• A spa tucked away in the back garden, perfect for unwinding

Winter Comfort
In the cooler months, the fireplace between the dining and lounge areas brings a warm, inviting glow to the whole space. Whether you’re enjoying a candlelit dinner or a quiet night in, the atmosphere is hard to beat.

Outdoor Living
Buru Retreat is designed to be enjoyed in every season. On warm days, the deck is perfect for a relaxed afternoon with a drink or a good book.
As the sun sets, the experience shifts:
• Head to the firepit area and settle in for the evening
• Toast marshmallows and enjoy the crisp mountain air
• Look up to clear, star-filled skies with minimal light pollution
And after a day of exploring, the garden spa is always waiting.

Bedroom Sanctuary
A few steps up from the main living area, the bedroom feels like your own private sanctuary. Earthy, neutral tones create a calm and restful space, centred around a plush queen bed for a perfect night’s sleep.

Kitchen & Dining
The well-equipped kitchen makes it easy to stay in and enjoy a meal together. Pick up some local produce from the village and settle in for a relaxed evening.
Features include:
• Dishwasher
• Nespresso pod coffee machine
• Full cooking facilities
• A large dining table for shared meals

Comfort & Connectivity

It particularly suits:
• Bushwalkers and nature lovers, with trails just moments away

The property is located in a private secluded location a short walk from Blackheath village. The accommodation was pleasantly spacious and all amenities of a high quality. The slow combustion wood heater provided for a very cosy experience. Property manager Michael was very helpful throughout our stay.Thoroughly recommended Steve and Miranda

What an amazing home in the heart of the blue mountains! The home was so cozy and central within blackheath - surrounded by boutique towns and scenic bushwalks. Exactly as advertised we enjoyed our 2 night stay here, aided by detailed communication with the host. A must recommend spot!
