I’m sure that every Aussie will recall the past two New Year’s celebrations with a degree of tentativeness, knowing that uncertainty with Covid-19 still hung in the air. It feels good to know that we can all take our first steps into 2023 with more confidence and hopes for a fantastic year.

January can be a time to shake off the often chaotic nature of December and the festive season, but can also be the opportunity to relax and reorient ourselves for the year ahead. Even just a weekend away can be enough to recharge our batteries and return home with a refreshed mind, ready to take on the year!

The Blue Mountains is the perfect place to launch 2023 and explore what January has to offer. The Mountains, with its stunning flora and fauna offers rich Indigenous history, breathtakingly stunning views, and quaint towns where you are sure to feel yourself unwind whilst immersed in a truly special part of New South Wales.

Allow your escape to provide you a true and proper break from the routine of life and instead try to be fully present with your surroundings. Explore the many trails the Blue Mountains have to offer and take in the landscape, perhaps it’ll also be an excuse to use that camera that might not get picked up enough! There is plenty to photograph here in the Mountains, from wildlife to lush landscapes, or even in the towns themselves, which may not be something you can experience regularly if home is the city.

Give your getaway the touch of luxury it deserves with Mountain Whispers, where each historic property has been decorated with the charm, elegance and ambience of a bygone era, yet with modern facilities. Our indulgence packages offer an extra touch of luxury and pampering during your stay, where you won’t have to worry about organising anything except which package to pick!

• Custom indulgences such as a grazing boxes (gluten-free and vegetarian options available) waiting your arrival, fine hand-crafted chocolates, various arrangements of roses, and champagne on ice or perhaps arriving late and would like dinner arranged for you so you can simply heat and eat?
• Complimentary indulgences such as port, wine, and chocolates
• Booking an in-house cook for a private lunch, dinner or high-tea complete with being served throughout your event.
