The Great Escape, Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley
Three hours drive from Sydney, deep in the depths of The Blue Mountains and finally, no bars on the phone. Are these the lengths one must go to these days to actually ‘switch off’? If so then there is no place I would rather be. With toddler in tow we embark on our Great Escape – surrounded by 4500 kangaroos and a Land Rover ‘Defender’ to drive us around. We have entered the world of Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley and what a dreamy place it is.
Situated on Australia’s Great Diving Range between two national parks the property provides panoramic quintessential Australian bush land views as far as the eye can see with kangaroos, wallabies and wombats roaming free across the private 7,000 acre carbon neutral wildlife reserve.
The resort presents 40 free-standing villas, each featuring its own private pool and spacious verandah to watch the wallabies hop by while you enjoy a glass of vino from the extensive wine list. My son Romeo thought we had a glorious new abode complete with children’s bike and trainer wheels. It is these details and thoughtful touches through out our stay that remind you what a luxury stay really entails.
Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley provides the perfect playground for both adults and children alike with a range of nature and adventure experiences available for everyone to enjoy including a Junior Rangers program with educational and fun nature-based experiences.
