THE CASA, Kangaroo Valley – 4pm Check Out Sundays (except Peak season)!

THE CASA is an architect designed escape inspired by the warmth and imperfect character of Mediterranean farmhouses. The design ethos of THE CASA is based around simplicity to echo the importance of pared back living with sustainable and eco properties. Celebrating its history as a renowned art gallery, THE CASA’s palette is nature-inspired, the materiality is earthy with organic shapes, raw textures and contemporary touches.

THE CASA is situated in a beautiful natural environment surrounded by 8 acres of ‘park like’ grounds with an unrivalled perspective of the mountains and extensive views of Kangaroo Valleys ‘Red Rocks’ escarpment that glows red and orange at sunset.

Beautiful trees including magnolias, citrus trees and majestic gums, provide a colourful show all throughout the year with blossoms in Spring, abundant fruit trees in Summer, colourful Autumn leaves and camellias in the Winter months.
