Luxury Holidays At Spicers Sangoma Retreat

Tucked away in the foothills of the beautiful Blue Mountains, just an hour from Sydney but away from the madding crowds, Spicers Sangoma Retreat is an intimate and unique place to stay. Inspired by the African bush camps, and taken from the Zulu word for healer, Sangoma is adults-only and eco-certified and the perfect place to switch off from the world and reconnect with nature. Surrounded by Angophora gums and pristine bush in all directions, days are spent discovering the myriad hiking trails on foot or by mountain bike, or if you’re in search in more of a challenge try your hand at abseiling, canyoning, or rock climbing. More gentle pursuits are also available with wine and water colour classes, luxury 4WD safari, private yoga classes, and soothing meditation sessions. Relax by the glorious infinity edge pool, which boasts wonderful views including the Sydney skyline on clear days, dine on exquisite cuisine, and unwind in one of six sumptuous suites that boast floor-to-ceiling windows and private decks, bringing the outside in. Indulge with pampering treatments at Spa Anise or use Spicers Sangoma as a stunning base from which to explore the magnificent World Heritage Listed Blue Mountains.

Climate

The major part of New South Wales, west of the Great Dividing Range, has an arid to semi arid climate. Rainfall averages from 150 mm to 500 mm a year throughout most of this region, and summer temperatures can be scorching hot while winter nights can be freezing cold. Further east, along the western slopes of the Great Dividing Range, rainfall is higher and falls fairly evenly throughout the year.

Getting There

Flight Information
From London Heathrow to Sydney: 22 hours.

Please contact our Travel Consultants for flight details.

Sydney

Sydney is a vibrant coastal city offering a wealth of sightseeing attractions, along with a multifarious range of activities for visitors to enjoy. Photograph the iconic Opera House; sunbathe on the legendary golden sands of Bondi Beach; partake in a little retail therapy in the global fashion houses and street markets; take a tour of the Olympic Park on over 30-kilometres of off-road cycle paths; or picnic at Sydney Harbour National Park, which protects a collection of Aboriginal sites. If you’ve a head for heights, it is possible to book a place to climb to the top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, day or night, for some of the most incredible views over the city.

Sydney
The Blue Mountains

The breathtaking range, the Greater Blue Mountains, whose name derives from the blue haze given off by its thousands of Eucalyptus trees, can be reached within a two to three-hour drive of Sydney. Amongst its valleys, forests, canyons and waterfalls are a host of Aboriginal sites, while there is plenty of wildlife to keep an eye out for - including kangaroos, wombats, a variety of birds, reptiles and frogs. These peaks are the perfect destination for bush-walking and adventure pursuits.

The Blue Mountains
Byron Bay

Byron Bay is renowned for its thriving arts scene, and individuals with a creative or spiritual side are drawn here by the laid-back lifestyle and outstanding natural scenery - including pristine beaches and sparkling turquoise waters that are amongst the very best in Australia. As well as a plethora of art galleries, popular activities include yoga, nature walks, horse-riding, kayaking, mountain bike tours, hang-gliding and whale-watching (Humpback Whales migrate along the coast between May and November).

Byron Bay
Lord Howe Island

Just a two-hour, utterly scenic flight north east of Sydney, Lord Howe Island has a World Heritage-listed eco-system providing sub-tropical splendour, a reef-fringed lagoon, marine park, majestic volcanic peaks and a rainforest hiking trail to Mount Gower.
