The well appointed home of Gai and George Sprague, Araluen offers relaxation and pampering with three comfortable guests' bedrooms (queen-size and en-suites) making it an ideal getaway for up to six people.

Araluen's sumptuous breakfasts include home made breads and jams.  The Central Blue Mountains is blessed with an abundance of BYO and other fine eateries.

Set in an acre of cottage and native gardens, Araluen boasts a large living room with open fire place. The whole house - including reading, games and dining rooms - has central heating (and cooling for summer).

Nearby, an easy bush track winds through glades, busy with bird life, and passes Adelina, Junction, Cataract, and Federal secluded Falls. All are within a 4km circuit and are a delight for picnics.

Lawson, the original "Blue Mountain" village is just 90km from Sydney.
