Nestled right up against the escarpment at an elevation of 450m, this high-end, off-grid 40 acre property effectively offers your own private slice of Macquarie Pass National Park - amazing views, giant cedar trees, fern forests, cascading waterfalls and palms surround.
It feels remote but it's only 90 min from Sydney, 30 min to Kiama and just 15 min to the shops. The property also offers the only hiking path up to the top of the escarpment for some truly amazing views.
As of September 2025, many of the trails on the property have been degraded by the rains and are now challenging for 2WD cars. If you're towing or it's wet we recommend AWD or 4WD vehicles.
Since this is coastal rainforest and it has been very wet, expect leeches anywhere it is damp. These are easily kept at bay with deet and or trousers tucked into socks.
We're not particularly price sensitive - until all those rate rises - but we are extremely value sensitive so we set out to make your stay extremely good value for your hard earned money. The land itself does most of the heavy lifting but also personal service and of course there's Lana to fall in love with.
Note, Mellows Rd is 2.6km long and rises 400m - in parts the road is a 15 degree grade. It's all paved but narrow so if you are towing a large heavy load, it's going to strain your car.

Otford is a historic village in a valley between Sydney and Wollongong, and bounded by the Pacific ocean. Our private acreage backs onto the southern tip of the Royal National Park, so the outlook from the campsite is all leafy trees. Walk to lookouts over the ocean, hike down to the beach or a few minutes drive to dog friendly beaches. Our bathroom and kitchen facilities make it an easy experience for first time campers. We are well-behaved-dog-friendly BUT you must let us know in advance.
Our access track to the camping sites has been repaired with a deep layer of asphalt but still best suited to 4WD. The majority of standard 2WD cars manage the track fine There is also the option of parking roadside, and walking in approx 300m to the sites. Please message us if unsure about your vehicle.
IMPORTANT PLEASE READ
1. Please let us know if you are bringing a dog/dogs - we have horses, house dogs, chickens and; wildlife plus likely other campers close by, so need to be forewarned. Dogs must be on lead or contained at all times.
2. If you need to camp out of your 4WD RV (such as a roof top tent), please contact me before booking to ensure those two particular vehicle sites are still available :) and that your vehicle is suitable for our track. Maximum length is approx 5m. Please scroll through the photos to see our amenities and camping sites.
3. We limit the number of people staying at any one time, so weekends book up quickly. That said, due to Covid and weather, people often cancel at the last minute too, so if we are currently booked out, it's always worthile checking again closer to the date for any availability.
We are on acreage (approx 7 acres) in Otford, surrounded by forest, backing onto the very southern end of the Royal National Park Sydney/Wollongong. Sleep under the stars, and to the hoot of our local owls, and yips of the gorgeous feather-tail gliders. Lovely, peaceful and private in a bushland backdrop but so close and just a hike to famous sites, beaches, cafes and bushwalking - so the perfect spot to stop, unpack and then go exploring.
Max of 3 camp sites booked at a time. Each camp site is within shouting distance of each other, so if looking for absolute privacy, please talk to me first. As bookings come throu

Originally settled in 1889 "Bobs Grant" this lovely property and the surrounding land was originally used for farming but is now mostly turf farms.
Enjoy our little getaway down by the Hawkesbury River only 10 minutes from historic Windsor. A beautiful river shack for your use exclusively, including fire pit with direct access to the Hawkesbury river.
Destroyed in the March and July 2022 floods, we have now re-built and are loving welcoming back our guests.
Bring your caravans, tent or swag - all are welcome! Unfortunately, boats are not.
Relax and enjoy the serenity whilst being only 1 hour from Sydney.
We offer the site to one group only, a maximum of 20 guests. However note, we are not a place for rowdy groups and parties. Groups are welcome here to enjoy the time with their family and friends, play a little music and relax by the river. The river can get busy (which is great after the floods as it has been dead for so long) and so can the road across the river but if you are enjoying your family and friends you won't even notice!
We have one basic toilet, and one river water shower available too! Please bring your own drinking water.
You can bring your dogs, but they must be on a leash at all times. We have three little puppies that love to roam their property. We lock them up sometimes but most of the time they are just running around having fun. Minimum of 2 dogs per booking and they must be noted on the booking.
Fires are only permitted when allowed, in the designated areas only.

Nestled right up against the escarpment at an elevation of 450m, this high-end, off-grid 40 acre property effectively offers your own private slice of Macquarie Pass National Park - amazing views, giant cedar trees, fern forests, cascading waterfalls and palms surround.
It feels remote but it's only 90 min from Sydney, 30 min to Kiama and just 15 min to the shops. The property also offers the only hiking path up to the top of the escarpment for some truly amazing views.
As of September 2025, many of the trails on the property have been degraded by the rains and are now challenging for 2WD cars. If you're towing or it's wet we recommend AWD or 4WD vehicles.
Since this is coastal rainforest and it has been very wet, expect leeches anywhere it is damp. These are easily kept at bay with deet and or trousers tucked into socks.
We're not particularly price sensitive - until all those rate rises - but we are extremely value sensitive so we set out to make your stay extremely good value for your hard earned money. The land itself does most of the heavy lifting but also personal service and of course there's Lana to fall in love with.
Note, Mellows Rd is 2.6km long and rises 400m - in parts the road is a 15 degree grade. It's all paved but narrow so if you are towing a large heavy load, it's going to strain your car.

Escape the Hustle in Nellies Glen – Megalong Valley
Before you book: We accommodate car campers and hikers.
→ Car camping bookings are limited to ensure guests enjoy a quiet stay without being impacted by others, and to reduce the impact on our roads and environment. Please ensure your vehicle has sufficient clearance for off-road access.
→ Hikers are almost always welcome. Hiking sites are for those walking the Six Foot Track from Katoomba or Jenolan Caves.
Nellies Glen is a stop along the Six Foot Track, spanning the grassy flats of Megalong Creek that the locals (wombats) call home. This private campground is ready for your next getaway.
Right among the Aussie scrub and surrounded by the escarpments of Narrowneck and Ngula Bulgarabang, you'll feel a million miles away — but you’re not. A 1.5-hour walk from Katoomba along the Six Foot Track, or a half-hour trip from Blackheath, will land you at this stunning spot in the Megalong Valley.
Explore the Six Foot Track, Devil’s Hole, or other Narrowneck passes on foot, and find your own special slice of Megalong Creek for a refreshing dip. Sling up a hammock, watch the sunset over the escarpment, and see the stars fill the sky.
If you’ve driven into the valley, be sure to check out the local wineries, restaurants, and tearooms.
This laid-back property is all about privacy — allowing you to connect with your surroundings and respect the bush while having a great time.
We’re a family-friendly property and love seeing kids and dogs running around — but we’re not the place for loud music or late-night parties.
Exclusivity can be arranged for organisations such as schools, community groups, workshops, or low-key weddings. Otherwise, please note that we or other campers may be present in other areas of the property.

We enjoyed our stay at The Secret Getaway. The road into the camp ground was easy and accessible for 2WD cars. We were allocated camp #2, which had full exposure to the sun, so it got really hot on a 40deg day we were there.
But it didn't dampen our experience. We didn't swim in either dams (water was a little muddy) and Aqua Pool and Little River was about a 20-25min hike.
Luvina and Victor were great hosts. Instructions were clear and they were very responsive to msgs.
Would recommend it for families.

This is our second time visiting The Secret Getaway! This time we came with a group of friends and our dogs! To say we had a great time is an understatement- even with the 40 degree heat. Thank god for being able to swim in the dam. The sites are flat and easy to access. Since we went last time they have put in a flushable toilet which is a nice little addition. The composting toilets are perfectly fine though. Highly recommend this camp for big groups or just a quick getaway for a couple!

The campsite at Buxton was really lovely to have a true bush experience. We had a site with a fire pit which we enjoyed, and it was very close to a dam, which was lovely to cool down in a float around in on our Lilo's.. We are new to camping We're amazed at how clean and well thought out the toilets were.. the most amazing dropout I've ever seen with everything you need. We had an amazing walk to the aqua pools.. It is a quite a big walk and I recommend sturdy shoes and even aqua shoes for walking in the river.. It was a great experience and the children loved floating down the river and jumping off the rocks. The campsites were far enough away from others but enough to know that you weren't alone. It was really great for a first time.
Also checking in and out was easy. Highly recommend..

5 stars for the stunning setting (beautiful river with clear water, sandy bottom, big gum trees and various birdlife) and for the proximity to Sydney. 2.5 stars for the camping facilities: the electric fence (for cows in the next door property) wasn't turned off until a few hours after our arrival for the long weekend, and there were a lot of cow dung patties and attendant flies. Nice to have flushing toilets with toilet paper but these had no lights to see in them, a few broken locks and no vacant/occupied signs on the outside. There were very few kayaks and paddles but this wasn't advertised so we hadn't brought alternatives. No firewood though that was promised. And as other reviewers experienced, falling tree branches including green leafed ones (ie not just dead branches you could check for before setting up tents). We had a lovely time on a hot summer weekend, with kids and adults hanging out in the river most of the day. But for the price, it would be good if these things could be sorted. Overall, still recommend as a great nearby camping option, but come prepared.
