Te Kāinga Maunga | Spa, Sauna & Cosy Fireplace

Welcome to Te Kāinga Maunga, our two-storey mountain home on the edge of Blackheath. Four bedrooms, two cosy lounges—one for firelit chats and board games, the other for movie nights and kids’ retreats. A modern kitchen flows onto the back deck, where the BBQ, wood-fired pizza oven, private spa, sauna, and garden invite slow evenings under the sky. Just a short drive to Evans Lookout and the village, this is where mountain time begins.

Why Book Te Kāinga Maunga
• Relax & Unwind: Private spa and sauna on the deck—perfect for soaking under the stars.
• Outdoor Living: Wood-fired pizza oven, Weber BBQ, hammock, and large lounge on the back deck.
• Spacious Comfort: Four bedrooms, two living rooms, and plenty of space for families or friends.
• Mountain Magic: Just minutes from Evans Lookout, Govetts Leap, and iconic Blue Mountains walks.
• Village Charm: Easy access to Blackheath’s cafés, restaurants, and boutique shops.
• Family & Kids Friendly: Large garden, soft lawn, and separate spaces for kids to play or retreat.

The Space
This two-storey retreat is perfect for families or friends, with three distinct zones to spread out and relax: Upstairs, Downstairs, and Back Deck & Outdoor Living.

Upstairs:
• Living room bathed in sunlight by day and cosy for movie nights by night.
• Huge leather couch and large TV—perfect for binge-watching or giving kids their own retreat.
• Spacious desk and monitor available for anyone who needs to work while away.
• Two bedrooms: one queen, one with two king singles.

Downstairs:
• Welcoming sitting room with leather armchairs and a glowing fireplace—perfect for long chats, board games, or quiet moments with a glass of wine.

• Master queen bedroom and a double bedroom.
• Freshly renovated bathroom with bathtub and separate shower, plus a separate toilet.

Back Deck & Outdoor Living:
French doors open onto the deck, where a large outdoor lounge, Weber BBQ, hammock, private spa, and sauna create a dreamy space to unwind. The wood-fired pizza oven sits here too—grab your favourite toppings from the local deli and fire up an Italian feast under the stars. With minimal light pollution, the night sky here is dazzling and unforgettable.
Beyond the deck lies a sprawling garden and soft lawn—perfect for kids (and grown-ups) to play while others relax with a drink in hand.

Comfort & Connectivity

Great cosy cottage - loved the well eqipped kitched and tasteful firnishings! Fire was gorgeous. Has a truely enormous TV upstairs but we actually never turned it on preferring to chat in the downstairs lounge room near the fire - so unplanned digital detox an added bonus!
