Glamping near Sydney guide

Overview

Glamping, sometimes known as luxury camping, puts a deluxe spin on traditional camping experiences, offering pre-erected, safari-style tents or bell tents along with campsite classics such as fire pits. Many luxury glamping tents near Sydney come with simple pleasures such as mattresses, and some glampsites include luxe perks such as hot showers, kitchenettes, outdoor BBQ grills, and even hot tubs. While you're unlikely to find much right in Sydney's CBD, there are plenty of glamping experiences elsewhere in NSW, many only a short drive from the city. Some of the best glamping spots can be found in Lane Cove National Park and further afield in areas such as the Blue Mountains, Capertee, Mudgee, Jervis Bay, Shoalhaven, and along Australia's South Coast.
