Accommodation in Leura

The best way to experience all of Leura is to come for a night or two. When everyone else has gone home for the day, you’ll feel the deep quiet of this village emerge. As the day seeps into a star-filled evening, Leura belongs to you.

When you wake, you’ll experience Leura before the day’s rush begins. Native parrots cry out noisily as they fly overhead, a solitary dog barks or you may catch a soft conversation of early morning walkers passing by.

Daybreak weather in Leura can change minute by minute, for Nature controls in the Blue Mountains, and you quickly learn to adapt to her demands. But, you can count on weather being glorious, though oft times extreme. 

A few sleepy-eyed locals make their way to cafés on The Mall around 7 am for that first cup of coffee or tea. Otherwise, all is quiet and this is the Leura that day-trippers miss.   

Accommodation

A number of bed and breakfast inns and large resorts welcomes guests in every season. Self-contained rentals, and there are many, are available through local booking agents who have a thorough knowledge that segment of the accommodations market.
