Location - Nestled atop Mount Tootie in Bilpin, on the northern edge of the Blue Mountains, Mountaintop Bilpin Resort offers a serene nature escape. Located just 6 km from Bilpin's town center and 90 km from Sydney, this 40-hectare retreat boasts breathtaking views and tranquil surroundings. Known as the "Land of Mountain Apples," Bilpin is famous for its crisp apples, fresh juice, and summer apple-picking, with charming roadside stalls along the historic Bells Line of Road. Bordering Wollemi National Park, the resort ensures privacy and immersion in lush wilderness.
Design Concept - The resort's design integrates seamlessly with its natural surroundings, embodying the philosophy of "nature as stay, stay as nature." This concept fosters a deep connection with the environment, offering tranquility, balance, and comfort.
Architectural Design - The resort features two cabins along a 70-meter ridgeline, each spanning 170 square meters and accommodating 8–12 guests. A 300-square-meter central courtyard, with a serene water feature, connects the cabins. This versatile space is ideal for yoga, wellness sessions, weddings, corpo-rate events, and music gatherings. The architecture harmonizes with the mountain's contours, cre-ating a tranquil yet functional environment for memorable experiences.
Interior Design - Interiors feature refined simplicity with Eastern influences, natural materials, and earthy tones. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide panoramic views and abundant light. Living areas, bedrooms, and tatami spaces use soft white and charcoal linens, while kitchens and bathrooms feature pristine white stone finishes. Modern amenities, including air conditioning, underfloor heating, and premium appliances, ensure comfort. Outdoor bathtubs with mountain views and a sky-reflecting pool add to the serene experience.
Landscape Design - Surrounded by untouched nature, the resort offers stunning views of water, light, and mountains, especially at sunrise and sunset. Guests can enjoy coffee, dinners, or evenings by the fireplace under a starlit sky.
Mountaintop Bilpin Resort blends innovative design with natural beauty, offering a tranquil retreat for relaxation, reflection, and unique experiences. Its harmonious integration with the environment, modern comforts, and serene surroundings create an unparalleled escape from city life.
