About this house rental
Koonawarra is a comfortable 3 bedroom home with 3 bathrooms. It is filled with natural light and has views of the gardens from all the rooms. Koonawarra is located on the highest point in Mt Wilson. The name Koonawarra originates from an Aboriginal word meaning "a high point of land with smooth, round stones".
Retaining the original features of the home Koonawarra is styled with a Japanese influence.
Located in 24 acres of historical Dennarque Estate gardens, which have been featured in local and international media, and regarded by many as the best cold climate garden in Australia.
The gardens were designed over 140 years ago by the then Royal Botanic Gardens Sydney director, Charles Moore. The Gardens still retain a large number of original plantings from late 1880s that were introduced from various countries around the world.
There are many rare species of maples, rhododendrons, camellias, dahlias and many other exotic and rare plants. A Japanese influenced garden has recently been added to Estate.
Rarely open to the public, the exotic cool climate gardens of Dennarque Estate are best experienced as in-house guests.
Guests can enjoy a game of tennis, stroll through the gardens, watch many migrating birds, or just relax and curl up with a good book! Koonawarra is ideally placed as a perfect base to explore the Blue Mountains towards 3 directions: towards Bilpin, Leura and Lithgow.

Very clean and comfortable property - and lovely gardens. The teenagers particularly enjoyed the tennis court - and the space to roam around (as well as the Foxtel).

The perfect weekend getaway - 4 days enjoying the most amazing colour of such beautiful flowers/shrubs. Accommodation is fabulous. 3 generous bedrooms, very comfortable beds/plush towels/bath robes. Newly renovated bathroom, generous shower with a very good water pressure. Separate toilet. Very large lounge with tv/foxtell, view over beautiful gardens/grass area. New kitchen, very functional with just a few items eg. tongs, extra platters/bowls required. Beautiful glass conservatory with lovely glass dining table overlooking gardens. Air-conditioning/heating. Such a delight to have 24 acres of superb gardens to wander around without another person around. The spring colours were just sensational, we could not get enough of the beauty of the gardens of Koonawarra and Denarque. We were so privileged to be able to have the use of this property with our friends. There is a tennis court and croquet facilities. BBQ and pizza oven. A photographers dream.
