Luxury Accommodation in Orange

Planning your post-lockdown luxury retreat in NSW

August 26, 2021

The state of New South Wales has had it tough in 2021.


As we write this blog, the entire state is in lockdown and millions of Sydney residents have been all but confined to their homes for over eight weeks. It’s not easy, and it’s only natural that we’re all dreaming of jumping in our cars and hitting the open road once lockdown restrictions ease. Even though overseas escapes from Sydney or other Australian centres won’t be possible anytime soon, we’re lucky to have lots of incredible options for weekend getaways in NSW. And if you’re looking specifically for tranquil luxury retreats in NSW, Lakeview Luxury Retreat is the perfect choice for couples.


A quick escape to the countryside


Dreaming of fresh air and wide open spaces? Lakeview Luxury Retreat is conveniently placed for weekend getaways in NSW—whether you’re coming from Sydney, Newcastle, Woollongong—or even across the border in Canberra. If you were to depart from Sydney CBD at lunch time on Friday, you’d be with us in four short hours after a pleasant drive through the Blue Mountains. The Lakeview property is enveloped by bushland and countryside, with vibrant birdlife and other wildlife surrounding each luxury villa —being so central to all of NSW, we are not too far to travel to, no matter where you are located.


A room with all the trimmings


If you’re looking for luxury retreats in NSW, we’re willing to bet that you’re eager to find beautiful accommodation that comes with all the trimmings. Our three five-star eco-friendly luxury villas come with a generous supply of food, large windows, deep bathtubs, underfloor heating in the bathrooms during winter, and private patios to soak up the sunshine and starlit skies. All guests receive a cheese platter and a bottle of wine as well as a complimentary breakfast hamper in the morning. Our beds are comfy, our villas private and quiet (no kids allowed!) and you’ll have amazing views stretching over neighbouring Lake Canobolas.


Relax and recharge among nature


When planning your escapes from Sydney, you’re probably looking for accommodation that feels like you’re a million miles away from the city with lots of opportunities to spend time outdoors. Lakeview Luxury Retreat is just a ten-minute drive away from the city of Orange and perfectly positioned for experiences among nature. Bushwalking, jogging and mountain biking are at your doorstep, as well as fishing, water sports, and many great golf courses.


Experience fine food and wine


It might have been a long time since you’ve sat down to enjoy a nice meal somewhere other than within your own home! The Orange region is known for its great food and wine so we have wineries and restaurants galore ready for you to enjoy once restrictions are lifted. Take a wine tour around the many cellar doors or head into Orange for an incredible meal at one of the town’s renowned restaurants.


You’re safe with us


We’re certified as ‘Covid-safe’. So if you’re nervous about planning any weekend getaways in NSW, rest assured that we have a thorough Covid-19 safety plan in place, registered with the NSW Government. We also have a flexible cancellation policy so you won’t lose out if circumstances change. And because of the size and layout of our property, you could easily spend your whole getaway without seeing another soul. When you arrive at our luxury retreat in NSW we hope you’ll instantly feel calm and connected to nature—the ideal way to reset after life in lockdown.
