Wonderful location with a stunning view. My friends and I loved it! Instructions were easy to follow and both the sofa bed and main bed were comfortable to sleep on. The kitchen was stocked with all the pots, pans, and utensils we needed. There were also many other small bits and pieces provided that made our stay extra comfortable (camping chairs, books, etc). The unsealed road may be a little tricky to navigate but we managed to get there in our Hyundai i30.

This is our second trip to Nos Astra it is perfect getaway for my birthday. I love being off grid and being able to “camp” in comfort and not need to bring everything.
Clean comfortable tidy place. Has most things you need, John’s instructions were very detailed and helpful. We drive a Mazda 3 and take the dirt roads with caution but road is accessible.
I love the view, the quietness and this year missed out on the star gazing thanks to the overcast clouds.

I loved staying at Gary’s farm. Both Gary and his wife are genuine, hard working, lovely people.
As a solo female camper I felt so safe on this property. The toilets and showers are excellent. The fact you can feed his animals is a plus.
A beautiful short drive to the blue mountains. Really well priced. I would highly recommend a stay here.

Loved this spot! It was so picturesque and quaint. While the campsite holds many people no I was able to find a spot that was quiet and suited my set up with my dog. The bathrooms were very clean, shower had hot water instantly. I was able to take my dog on the trails on location and quite enjoyed the walk. The drive to the campsite was equally as impressive and I will certainly be returning .

We stayed at the Flash Camp over New Years. I was really impressed with the amenities, Bbq's & toiletries.
The whole site is very family & kid friendly. They put on an inflatable water slide for the kids in the afternoons, there's a park area with slack lines & a flying fox plus a soccer field.
The water was beautiful & peaceful, plenty of shallow areas for the kids & deeper parts for a swim.
I highly recommend Jilla, we'll be back!!
Thanks for having us Philip

We stayed for two nights on our way back from central coast. It was so lovely, the river is accessible from the campground and there is heaps to do for kids. The owners have placed a flying fox, kids monkey bars, and a soccer pitch with goals. They also come in the afternoon and inflate the inflatable water slide for kids. There are toilets and sinks for washing up. They also accept dogs and allow fires. The glamping area is very cosy from what we could see ☺️ thank you for having us, we will be back for Australia Day long weekend for more adventures

The facility was great in having great views and nature walks. The host was friendly and helpful. The farm had Kangaroo's and ponies about and plenty of native bird life about. Boz surveyed the site every day and picked up the scraps. The toilets where good for a public campsite. the shower had hot water but did fluctuate as supplies was short. The amenities were cleaned and sanitation performed daily. Close enough to Blackheath to pick up supplies, Tea Garden nearby, also Horse riding and winery. A great place to have open fire and sit and chill. We were no able to get through on the Six-foot track
