Bush Bliss!

Rustic Spirit is a magical place to unplug and slip into the tranquility of this property. The privacy of the chalet, the spa and the outlook make this place something special. The daily breakfast that is included was amazing especially the Rosti! The hosts are lovely and we’re a great source of local information and the on-site massage was amazing This place is a must if you looking for a bush-mountain experience without all the hustle and bustle of Katoomba.

The host Adrian was fantastic. The Piks cabin was very clean and cosy and well equipped. Lovely cooked breakfast by Adrian, which was enjoyed whilst sitting on the sunny verandah at the guesthouse. Felt like you were a millions miles away from the hustle of the big smoke!

A perfect relaxing weekend away in our self contained cabin in the bush. Bonus it was doggy friendly so we could bring our little four legged friend. The breakfast served at the main house each day was a highlight. The wood fire in the cabin kept us so cozy and can’t wait to come back again.

What a wonderful experience. Our cabin was perfect with the scene set for our first wedding anniversary. Marianne was so beautiful and had everything organised and even though Expedia let me down, she made up for it at her own cost. Such a great experience. Highly recommend Rustic spirits.

Cosy welcoming retreat

Cosy retreat in a secluded, quiet setting. The detail is excellent and the hosts incredibly welcoming. A fresh country breakfast with delicious choices. We’d love to go back again and would recommend it to anyone.

Romantic getaway to relax and unwind

The Rustic Spirit is perfect for those looking to immerse themselves in lovely bush surroundings. The hosts are more than helpful and gracious and you will soon feel like you are in a home-away-from-home. The private sanctuary enables your spirit and body to relax, whilst the Rustic Spirit rooms cater for your every comfort. Visit in winter and curl up near the fireplace to truly feel like you are in paradise.
