Set in Ben Bullen in the New South Wales region, Wallabies Rest features a patio and mountain views. The property is 33 km from Lithgow and free private parking is featured.
This tented camp comes with a kitchenette, a seating area, a dining area and a satellite flat-screen TV.
A barbecue and a terrace are provided at the tented camp.
"Wallabies Rest" is a fully self contained and spacious glamping tent with a large elevated deck in the central tablelands of NSW. An easy 30 minutes drive north of Lithgow and within one hour of the vineyards of Mudgee, this location is ideal for day trips and experiences within the region, including the stunning Capertee and Newnes Valleys, Bathurst, Lake Wallace, Rylstone and the old gold mining town of Sofala. There are numerous quaint country pubs, food retailers, and restaurants in the area.
The tent is located on a small farm and located beside the Gardens of Stone State Conservation Area, with assured privacy and rural farm views. Late in the afternoon you can sit on the deck and watch the kangaroos and wallabies grazing peacefully, hence the name "Wallabies Rest" and in the morning wake to native bird calls. There is plenty of bush walking or horse riding trails in the Gardens of Stone State Conservation Area adjacent. Please do not feed the wildlife bread as it harms them.
"Wallabies Rest” is directly accessible from the Castlereagh Highway at Ben Bullen with access suitable for all vehicles.

A BBQ and outside sink are on the deck along with an alfresco table with two chairs and two sun lounges with a side table. Below the deck is a fire pit on a large cleared area with chairs and a garden hose for any fire mishaps. Please note, no fires during any fire bans, as you appreciate this is beyond our control.

Ben Bullen is located on the Castlereagh Highway (almost) halfway between Cullen Bullen and Capertee.
The place name Ben Bullen is derived from the local Aboriginal word meaning “high, quiet place”.
The village was formed when the railway was constructed in the early 1880s. While goods trains still use the railway line the small railway station is closed. Since the closure of the railway station a bus service serves the community.
Ben Bullen is surrounded by picturesque cattle grazing land and the Gardens of Stone National Park. Farming and coal mining are the main local employers.
