Blue Mountains Winter Weekend – Part 3

I hadn’t spent much time exploring Leura before, and so was surprised to discover Sublime Point when we were visiting friends nearby. It has a better view in my opinion than Wenty Falls or even Echo Point, since you can see both valleys.

And because access is via some very quiet suburban streets, there are no walks from it, and parking is limited, it seems to be one of the more secluded lookouts in the Mountains. Bonus!

Blue Mountains Winter Weekend – Part 2

The Blue Mountains has a wide range of accomodation to choose from, especially in the village of Leura. We stayed at The Greens B&B. It was set in one of the old houses just off the Mall, and each room was named after a classic author or poet. I chose Jane Austen, of course.

The rooms were luxurious, and so were the breakfasts. There was even muffins for afternoon tea.

I liked the little touches, like a set of Jane Austen novels in the room. It made for a very homely stay.
