NSW Southern Highlands Boutique Off-Grid Cabins

ARUNA Estate logo

The Southern Highlands are calling: get off the grid and discover a new frontier of eco-luxury at this design-led hideaway, set among one of New South Wales’ most spectacular slices of bushland, just 90 minutes from Sydney. With direct access to the Penrose State Forest’s wildflower- and eucalyptus-filled trails, ARUNA Estate promises world-class walkabouts, and a shimmering infinity pool offers the perfect reason to return.

Cabins are light-filled and pared-back, featuring an outdoor fire-powered bathtub – your invitation to savour an evening under the stars – or upgrade to the villa for a designer-led stay with more space to breathe and extraordinary views over the valley and the forest beyond.

We had a wonderful and restorative few days at Aruna. Every detail was catered for, from the welcome basket of delicious local goods and wine, to fire wood for the fire pit. We stayed in the villa and made use of the tennis courts, mountain bikes and local bush walks. I was worried about our luggage cluttering the villa but the ample storage in the bedroom was more than adequate to hide it all away. Ahead of our arrival the hosts provided a great array of local restaurant tips and recommended nature spots. I would highly recommend it!

Amazing place. Perfect for a getaway from the city. I stayed in the Acacia Villa. Walking, biking and eating. Was a bit cold for the pool. The hamper was a great touch and the wine was enjoyed on the deck. Highly recommend this estate.

We had 2 great nights, very quiet, can walk around the farm areas and pick produce to cook or add to a salad, our cabin was excellent, food as ordered was very good no issues. The firepit was great, always love a fire and a wine. A very restful stay.
