This exclusive itinerary features three ultra-luxurious lodges across New South Wales. You'll start by exploring the countryside just outside of Sydney at Pretty Beach, mountain biking through forest trails and soaking in your private plunge pool. You'll then head into the majestic Blue Mountains, getting out into nature with stable tours and guided walks, while enjoying multi-course dinners, regional wines and the comforts of your spacious accommodation. Finally, experience a true island idyll with a stay at Capella Lodge on the tiny Lord Howe Island, just a short flight from Sydney. You'll feel so relaxed, it'll be hard to leave.

1
Pretty Beach House
Today you'll collect your hire car in Sydney and head to your luxury accommodation, around 15 minutes outside of Sydney. This exclusive lodge is set in Bouddi National Park on an escarpment above Pretty Beach, with incredible views of the surrounds – particularly from your infinity pool. Your all-inclusive stay here is about relaxing and unwinding in a quintessentially Australian retreat, where everything from premium dining and drinks to mountain bike hire is catered for. On arrival, a traditional indigenous smoking ceremony sets the tone for two days of special experiences. After a gourmet dinner, and perhaps a glass of wine by the pool, sink into fresh linen sheets in your spacious Bayview Pavilion.

Pretty Beach House
You have plenty of time to explore your stunning natural surroundings today, perhaps with some time on the beach or a leisurely bike ride through the parkland. Choose to dine throughout the day in the main dining area, al fresco or even on the lodge's private boat. Menus feature fresh produce from the onsite gardens and wines chosen from a curated wine cellar on the property. For a truly indulgent experience, book a treatment in the Bouddi Spa featuring Pure Australian Botanical products, perhaps followed by a dip in your private heated plunge pool. Tonight, why not enjoy sunset drinks and perhaps the Chef's Table dining experience before a well-earned night's rest.

Your elegant Capella Suite is airy and bright, with high ceilings, chic finishes and a private outdoor deck for a sense of true island living. While you're here, you'll want to explore, and at just 11 kms long and barely 2 kms at its widest point, Lord Howe Island is perfect for laid-back walks through the Banyan trees and snorkelling along its shores.
