About the host
Hosted by Joss OConnell
After living in busy Sydney for many years, I decided that I needed a change of pace - fresh mountain air and quality of life - and before I knew it, this beautiful 2 storey house and amazing property found me - It was definitely love at first sight. I love the garden and the space it offers. In spring especially, the garden is home to over 8 varieties of birds lots of butterflies a blue tongue lizard and resident Lyre birds who spend their days digging for worms. My favourite pastime is bushwalking and discovering new tracks and waterfalls in the mountains. I enjoy meeting and greeting my guests from all over the world. It brings me so much pleasure to share this "slice of heaven" as it's too wonderful to keep to myself. I came from a corporate background in Recruitment and am very much a people person so my new lifestyle in this beautiful community welcoming my visitors when I'm at home is perfect for me. The retreat is all about taking time for you. I look forward to host you here. This is a very Special property with palpable healing energy. We welcome you with Love. God Bless Dalia Isles 💜 Dalia's Blue Mountain Retreat
Why they chose this property
It had the most breathtaking views of the Jamison Valley and a great location. For 49yrs the property was owned by the well-known Australian Astrologer Richard Sterling whose Astrology columns you may have read in the Australian Women's Weekly. When I was in Recruitment I studied Numerology to help understand the strengths and weaknesses of the applicants I was placing and Richard Sterling was definitely one of my fans in the 1980's so I knew this property had been earmarked for me. It's in the perfect location for tourism and convenience and is the only Astrology sign posted garden of it's kind in Australia.
What makes this property unique
The upstairs apartment is positioned on the edge of the escarpment with a huge deck offering 180 degree breathtaking views of the Jamison Valley and Mount Solitary. In winter especially the northerly aspect means that the sun warms your body throughout the year and into the cooler months. The house is fully appointed with all the comforts of home and so close to 5 major bushwalks and 5 minutes drive to the Katoomba shopping centre. You are very welcome to take a stroll through the "Garden of the Stars" during your stay. I'm sure Richard would love you to find your star sign in the garden below, and also take in the beauty and serenity that surrounds you. The property exudes healing energy which will leave you feeling peaceful and rejuvenated.
