Really loved place and environment. Quiet place and fresh breath. No issues at all. 100 percent for great host !!

3 nights at Little Creek Retreat

A very handy location to the town and sights of Lithgow. Geoff is amazing and shared his passion for his project and the benefits of mountain living.

1 night at Rocklee Capertee

Amazing property … Lots of birds, kangaroos and wallabies..Amazing views and peaceful spot to camp 🏕️ Host really had my best interests at heart and was very pleasant to deal with. Five out of five stars 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 from me 🏕️👍🏻

5 nights at Little Creek Retreat

We loved our stay at Little Creek Retreat. Its a beautiful quiet spot. Geoff went out of his way to make us feel welcome and was the perfect host. Suited to smaller caravans and tents anything over 20ft might be tricky for access.

Weekend Trip to Trout Valley Retreat

Wow!!! What a special place. We were a group of six (plus three dogs) and absolutely loved our three night stay at Trout Valley Retreat. The whole property is serene, completely private, and the views across the valley are just stunning. We loved spending time wandering around the river bank and exploring, and it was incredible to have the whole place to ourselves. Tom is an excellent host, very communicative and friendly. The cabin made the trip feel super comfortable without taking away from the whole off-grid experience. It’s stocked with basics if you forget anything, plus a proper kitchen and board games if you get a rainy afternoon. We cooked dinner over the fire pit at the campsite every night and it was great to be able to wash the plates! There’s no reception, which we saw as a huge plus, it gave us all a chance to properly switch off. I can’t recommend Trout Valley Retreat highly enough if you’re looking to disconnect, unwind, and just enjoy being out in nature. Thanks for having us!

Weekend Trip to Rocklee Capertee

This was a great camping spot. Plenty of space and a beautiful view onto the escarpment. There is also a small shelter which was super handy. We saw lots of wombats and kangaroos and plenty of birds. The dog loved it!

2 nights at Megalong Valley Farm

Megalong Valley Farm was an awesome place for me to camp with my daughter. The property itself is stunning and the hosts could not have been more lovely. Gary is awesome and the lady, sorry I don't know her name, who looked after the amenities was fabulous. We had a wonderful time and will go again. The valley itself is lovely and the views are magnificent.

1 night at Megalong Valley Farm

Great camping spot. Amazing views and sites are spread out. The lady at reception was so friendly and helpful. Lots of animals and probably the cleanest camping toilets I have ever seen. I wish we booked for longer than one night.

A lovely stay at this land! Super friendly on arrival, gave us a lot of information about the site and even gave us some bread & apples to feed the horses/donkeys! Hot and clean showers, and clean toilets too! Very spacious with beautiful views each direction you looked. Lots of room to chose from and also the option to have a campfire which is nice. Would definitely recommend here!

Rhapsody

4 sites · RVs, Tents25 acres · Gingkin, NSW

Welcome to this remote piece of paradise! Rhapsody is located in Gingkin,, which is not far from Oberon NSW, about 3 hours west of Sydney. Campsites are hidden in a remote valley direct frontage to the pristine Hollanders River, adjoining the Kanangra-Boyd National Park. There are two private campsites on grassy river flats surrounded by eucalyptus forest. The sites are very secluded so you will see lots of wildlife and you're guaranteed not to see any other people! Only one group can stay at each campsite and campsites are on different parts of the river so privacy is guaranteed. In dry conditions 2WD is fine for Wallaby flat but in wet weather, 4WD is required. Platypus flat is 4wd only. You can always park at the top of the hill and walk down first if you're not sure. Dog friendly. Campfires permitted in a designated area when restrictions aren't in place. Gather your own wood from fallen timber on the way in or BYO wood. Not much firewood available on site. Both campsites can get quite cool as they are low in the valley. This is a wild and remote area. Guided remote bushwalks also available for those who are fit and adventurous. Both campsites have a pit toilets, cold shower, spring water on tap, picnic tables.. Water is sourced from a distant spring in the mountain and is gravity fed to the site by above ground pipe which heats the water during the day. There is a small area where you can get Telstra mobile reception at the cattle grid on the way into the property, but very limited mobile reception in this area. If you are on Optus or other networks you won't get any reception. There is no mobile reception at camp - perfect for disconnecting and reconnecting with nature!

Bindari | A High Place in Wiradjuri

5 sites · RVs, Tents1 acre · Rockley, NSW

This 1/2 acre site is suitable for small camping stays and campervans. It's dog friendly and has great mobile and 3/4G reception especially for Optus and Telstra. Two wheel drive vehicles can park on the pad just past the entry which is perfectly level or the gravel landing just before the entry which is almost level. The site is in a great location on the last residential block of historic picturesque Rockley in the Central Tablelands (Wiradjuri Country) NSW. Surrounded by nice paddocks remnant bushland screens the site from the no through road (about 5 cars a day) provides shade and brings in birdlife and other animals. You might even see an echidna or koala! On the main street about 10mins walk from Bindari is the Rockley Pub by Matt Moran plus a few other trinket shops. The pub is open Thursday-Sunday and has great pub meals and a good vibe. You can leave your vehicle parked at Bindari and take the short walk through the very pleasant historic village. Different routes there and back make for a nice round trip to explore the scenery of the old gold rush village on foot. The easiest way to get to Bindari at Rockley from Sydney is by taking the Rockley road from Bathurst. From Sydney take the Great Western Highway (A32) up and through the Blue Mountains, a stop in Blackheath works well as it’s about ½ way. Then down the steep Victoria Pass into the Central Tablelands and straight through mostly dual carriageways turning left just before Bathurst onto Rockley Road. The scenic route is lovely and actually shorter but very tricky to navigate with phone reception dropping out and maps behaving strange as you are not taking the ‘main’ road. Add in a few potholes, unmarked road features, wildlife and country drivers coming at you in the opposite direction and there are as many surprises as there are wonders. But if you are a confident driver ready to take it slow when needed you are in for an enjoyable journey. At South Bowenfels, before Lithgow, take the off road at the service station (a good place to do a last check of fuel, tyres etc) and head towards Tarana, a lovely country pub. Next landmark is the O'Connell Hotel then put Rockley into the maps. This should bring you across the country through some amazing views but very tricky driving the first time you do it. So stay sharp (especially at night with wombats, rabbits and roos on the road) and only drive to the road conditions and your experience level.

4WD only - Rocklee is on Wiradjuri land, a short drive from Capertee, surrounded by Gardens of Stone and Capertee national parks and the Mugii Murrum-ban State Conservation Area. Rocklee is 2.5 hours from Sydney and Dubbo. Access is 4wd only. (We’re serious!) Our road has ‘roll overs’ so you need a vehicle with clearance. If you are towing a camper trailer or caravan, you need a good 4wd engine to get back up the hill confidently. Rocklee has a mix of no-longer used paddocks and about 800 acres of untouched bush. You will arrive through the conservation area, which has beautiful pagodas and endless bushwalks. Hipcampers can choose from plenty of space where they'd like to set up camp. Please be careful as some paddocks are overgrown, fences have come down and there are lots of wombat holes, so drive slowly and be careful. There are no amenities here, campers need to be self contained and leave no trace. This means you need to bring water, use exisiting fireplaces and take your rubbish, recycling and compost with you. (You need to bring water from home or elsewhere on the way. Please note you cannot fill up free tap water at Capertee - either at the BP, the picnic area or the pub. It just doesn’t rain enough to fill up the tanks.)
