My mother in law, sisters in law and I stayed at this very special property for a girls weekend. None of us wanted to leave. Beautifully appointed, 20 min walk into town, quiet, amazing birds & bushwalking. Just beautiful. Thank you!
Black Star is a boutique luxury accommodation in Kangaroo Valley. Pass through the gates onto the 5 acre residence, and the drama continues, as woodland peels away to reveal the house itself; an instantly grand, yet contemporary take on a traditional black barn, framed against arguably the most iconic view of Barrengarry Mountain the area has to offer.
Step inside, and the theatre continues; thanks to Black Stars fabulously high ceilings that encase an entire wall of 6 metre-high picture frame windows that presents the sweeping valley below and mountains beyond as a single, breathtaking image.
For a dwelling this bold and rugged against the skyline, you will be amazed at the intimacy and softness of its interior design: from oxblood leather couch to its oversize blue velvet sofafrom cool concrete coffee table to the luxurious marble kitchen bench Black Star presents as a master class in contrasting texture and mercurial elegance.
At the centre of the main living room, a Chevalier glass box log fire anchors the room and creates a natural focal point, as well as a stunning visual on long, cool nights.
Throughout the kitchen, you will notice that no expense has been spared, including a top of the range SMEG three-oven cooker. The same lack of compromise extends to the dwellings two large and luxurious, tiled bathrooms, complete with under floor heating.
In the master bedroom, as well as your own, personal log fire, you are spoilt further by a stand-alone bath, perfectly positioned to let you relax as you take in the stunning views across the front lawn to the mountains beyond. In addition, another 2 generous and similarly opulent bedrooms, as well as an extra mezzanine bedroom over the master for additional guests, guarantee that a full house at Black Star, never feels like a crowded house.
Black Star has been thoughtfully designed to maximize the beauty of the valleys contrasting seasons: from the snug warmth of its iconic central fireplace on a cold winter night, to its ingenious bi-fold doors that open up the interior space to the wraparound exterior deck, allowing a perfect spot to both bbq and dine outside on a balmy, summer night, whilst taking in the breathtaking spectacle of the mountain beyond.
A recently added swimming pool is the perfect addition to this stunning home.

Situated on barrengarry mountain in kangaroo valley, our designer barn, @blackstarcountryescape is proving impossible to leave. featuring the most luscious interiors and state-of-the-art furnishings, ‘black star’ is truly a unique and luxurious escape. grand windows and doors provide uninterrupted views of the mountains, mist and sky. ‘black star’ is an oversized barn that is unlike anything we’ve ever seen or experienced. it is a feast for the senses. the locals could not have been more welcoming and are so thankful for all the visitors coming through their little villages following an incredibly tough (almost) year starting with fires ravaging their lives, followed by travel bans. now is the time to escape and help where we can!
Highly recommend this lovely property! The living and dining surrounds a beautiful fireplace which everyone can enjoy. The kitchen is modern and the beds are 5 star. It’s a must stay if you’re traveling to KV.
Wow factor on arrival and for the whole weekend -it was special. When a house is so carefully and thoughtfully designed, it makes for an extremely relaxing and wonderful holiday.
Blackstar was amazing. Perfect for a family weekend away. Love the front lawn, perfect length for a Sand Wedge and loved the fully stocked timber store. A couple of things to plan for: bring extra dishwashing tablets, bin liners and paper towel. The starter pack didn't stretch to a long weekend of food, wine and festivities. The other thing, we didn't realise was that one of the bedrooms (the mezzanine) is open to the master bedroom. Not an issue to us as my 80 year old parents were probably not going to get up to any mischief anyway, but worth noting when you are working out who haswhatrooms. When we go back with friends, we'll probably consider it a 3 bedroom place and leave thekidsathome. Highly recommend this place. Enjoyed it and had loads of fun.
I took my partner here for a birthday getaway. It was absolutely stunning. When you enter the property the view blows you away. The kitchen was a delight to cook in and we had everything that we needed. We were happy that there was aircon as it gets hot in the valley. The property was located not far from town and from some fabulous swimming spots. I'd stay here again.
This home is perfect for a group, whether for a family getaway or weekend away with friends. Along with the breathtakingly beautiful location, the home’s amazing features from the bathtub in the main bedroom suite to the new installed pool and stunning art collection really set this property apart. A stay at Black Star is highly recommended!
Lovely stay at the property. Beautifully styled, quiet spot out of town but not so far that it's difficult to reach quickly. Gorgeous views and fun to see kangaroos bounding past as you shower!
The property is beautiful. Exceptional views across Kangaroo Valley. Extremely comfortable, understated luxury. Quiet landscape, but only a quick drive into town for some action. We look forward to returning with our family again soon.
Staying at Blackstar in Kangaroo Valley is nothing short of sensational! As soon as you walk in the front door the house oozes beautifully designed interiors and we felt like we were in a 6-star country home where no expense was spared to make us feel comfortable and welcome. We enjoyed the large entertaining desk, the massive kitchen which was great for cooking for a large group, the open fireplace, the expansive views of the luscious valley, the herb garden and all the special little touches which made our stay a wonderful experience. Very close to the actual town, great bushwalks and other family activities. We will definitely be back!
