Perfect for extended family group
The ground floor space including compact but generous kitchen were perfect for our group. The garden and view over the valley were a real pleasure.

Lovely home in Leura
Black Cockatoo Retreat was a wonderful place to stay. This was an annual re-union of ten ladies. The property was clean with ample amenities. The beds were very comfortable. It's a wondereful walk to Sublime Point lookout. The communication with Nora (the host) was amazing. Nora made many suggestions of places to go and options for food.
