1 night at Glenroy Cottages and Camping

I loved swag camping on this property, the river was amazing to wake up to. As well as the cows. Highlight of my trip down south!

Weekend Trip to Little Creek Retreat

Geoff is very passionate about his block, and provided excellent advice about nearby highlights. There is a small creek, with kangaroos and a nice variety of birds. The land is right on the edge of Lithgow, so would be good for beginner campers, and those looking for convenience. Geoff provided plenty of free firewood, and Camp Site 2 had a BBQ and toilet.

Weekend Trip to Wildwoods - Private bush surrounds

My friends and I enjoyed the Paddock camp as there was plenty of space to set up our camp for the 2 nights we stayed. The surrounding areas were very scenic and the view was so good especially watching the sunset in the afternoon. All in all was a very good spot and would recommend visiting for sure

Weekend Trip to Glenroy Cottages and Camping

It was an amazing place right beside the river. I’d definitely come back again.

2 nights at Little Creek Retreat

Lovely place!!! Geoff helped us find the local places to see! Thanks so much!

Weekend Trip to Nos Astra

What an absolutely beautiful spot. The cabin was beautifully presented with everything you could need for a few nights away. The fire kept the place warm and cosy and I loved the big windows and beautiful views into the valley. There was a very good and functional kitchen with a great selection of pots, pans and crockery and an easy space to work in. The bathroom was lovely and clean with a nice hot shower. Everything in the cabin design had been well thought out in great detail and I was very impressed. We both had an amazing weekend away and enjoyed beautiful meals in front of the fire and spent time during the day out trail running along the Six Foot Track. Our two dogs loved their stay too with plenty of space to run around. Loved hearing all the birds and seeing lots of wildlife too. Thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin with us, we loved it and can’t wait to come back again soon.

Awesome location, great views, well appointed cabin, peaceful, communication from the owner was very helpful, and a hot shower (!!), only 1km from the 6 Foot Track. Definitely recommend and would stay there again 🙂

We offer 7 spacious campsites as well as a self sufficient cabin overlooking stunning sunset views to the west of our property. We also have communal flushable toilets for our campers. Escape the busy city life and come light a campfire and watch the sunrise and sunset and enjoy the amazing views and wildlife and keep an eye out for koalas in the trees.

Our property is located in the Blue Mountains, nestled right in the middle of the national park and all that the Blue Mountains bush has to offer. Gums, ferns, fresh air and swimming holes. I only allow one group to camp at any one time per site. Other groups will be well away from you. However the dam is available for everyone to use. I adjust each booking with each group depending on size of the group and time of year. I also hold large events so will book out the entire site for large groups. Just a short drive from Sydney but a world away with its ancient forests and meandering pathways. All photos are from the site or within a 2km walk of the camping site in National Park or reserve. I welcome self-contained campers with your own camping toilet/shower, and drinking water. However there are facilities on site for smaller groups at an extra cost. The property offers a number of sites that can accommodate various group numbers. Please message me if you're interested in booking one or more listings for your special get together. Dogs are welcome as long as they are friendly, but no cats please. Also please be aware that we are surrounded by nature and part of nature are snakes and ticks. - we need to keep this environment for the wildlife. Please take all your belongings and rubbish with you when you leave. Leave it better than as you found it. Please be aware that due to our proximity to the road and rail that at times you will hear some traffic noise. But most times it is very quiet except for the frogs.

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!

Rocklee Capertee

11 sites · RVs, Tents1000 acres · Kandos, NSW

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.)
