The perfect place to unwind & enjoy a glass of your favourite wine

Weekend Trip to Redleaf Farm Glamping

Very special place! We had a great time enjoying the land and the set up.

Weekend Trip to Mellows Ridge

The Bell Tent was amazing! We enjoyed every single minute of it and the hosts were very accommodating and welcoming. The pizza was very delicious and sitting by the firepit drinking our complementary beers kept us warm on a cool night. The Bell Tent was also stacked with a power bank and Apple home pod which kept us entertained. Overall, we would highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Mellows Ridge

We had the absolute best time!! I went with my partner for a night as a getaway from busy Sydney and this hipcamp exceeded our expectations. Ian is so hospitable, so much so that he even gave us a backpack and a lunchbox to go hiking with. He was constantly going out of his way to ensure we had the best possible experience. We will definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to Redleaf Farm Glamping

Amazing, just what you need to get away from day to day life. Sam and his family were wonderful.

Redleaf Farm Glamping

2 nights at Redleaf Farm Glamping

We loved our New Year's Eve experience at Froghaven Tent at Redleaf Farm. The glamping tent offered everything: comfortable bedding suitable for families, and plenty of cutlery and pans for cooking. You might need to bring your own portable stove if you want to cook quickly. In our case, we loved cooking on the campfire. We enjoyed the ATV and farm tour, thanks to Sam, who kindly let us tour the area. The entire experience was so peaceful and rejuvenating, unlike crowded New Year's parties; it allowed us to welcome the year in tranquility and connect with nature. Whether you're looking for a romantic escape or a unique way to celebrate with friends, this is the perfect place to go!

Mellows Ridge

16 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents40 acres · Calderwood, NSW

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 2024, all the trails on the property have been massively upgraded and are passable with a 2WD car. If you're towing or it's wet we still recommend AWD or 4WD vehicles. We've just (mid December) added a spa half way up the driveway. It can be booked through the extras. 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.

Native wildlife adds to the magic of your visit. You may spot bush wallabies, kangaroos, echidnas, frogs, and a wide variety of lizards, especially during the calm of early mornings and late afternoons. The area is also home to an abundance of stunning birdlife, making it a birdwatcher’s delight. Soak in uninterrupted views of the surrounding bushland and the meandering Bargo River. Enjoy peaceful seclusion, connect with nature, and unwind in comfort. Local shops and attractions are only five minutes away, giving you the best of both convenience and wilderness. We look forward to welcoming you to Rosewood Farm—where glamping meets the beauty of the Australian bush.
