Awhile ago, we spent a luxurious anniversary weekend at the Hydro Majestic in Medlow Bath, in the Upper Blue Mountains. The Hydro is a heritage hotel with a very illustrious history, and walking in felt like walking on to the set of Downton Abbey/Agatha Christie. To a Sydney-sider who has driven west on the Great Western Highway numerous times over the years, it felt like the hotel had been in renovation forever (well, it did take decades to complete). Well, it’s finished now.

But more than being on a live film set, I was more interested in seeing the awesome views of the Megalong Valley. It did not disappoint.

More views in the next post.
