We stayed in the Dreamtime safari tent at Turon Gates and it was gorgeous - luxuriously comfortable, with lots of small touches to make us feel so welcome and pampered. Horse-riding along the Turon River, followed by a deep warm bath with views out to the bush, listening to the wood-burning stove crackling, was my idea of heaven.

We absolutely loved our stay at Turon Gates. From the moment we arrived, the owners made us feel like family — so warm, welcoming and incredibly accommodating throughout our stay.
The kids had the best time exploring nature, enjoying all the outdoor activities and just being able to run free in such a beautiful, peaceful setting. It was the perfect escape from busy everyday life.
Everything about our experience was relaxing, family-friendly and memorable. We’re already looking forward to coming back again soon!

Have camped here multiple times and is still hands down the best family friendly campsite that I have been too! The amenities are clean and very well maintained and camping by the river is beautiful. We have booked again to stay at one of their lodges, and I'd like to say a big thank you to Sima and the management team for allowing us to bring extra pets for our stay. This will be a memorable birthday for both my parents and family.

Just absolutely Wooow.

Our every first time camping and being at Turon Gates as well. And every experience we had we loved every single bit of it. From being away from our four walls, and the chaos of the busy life in Sydney, to simply being outdoors and breathing the fresh air, we rarely get in Sydney. It was beyond beautiful, the amenities where clean was a big bonus for me, to amenities for washing dishes absolutely loved it. The experience my family and I had, was an understatement, we never did except what we had endured. We loved every bit of it, the people where amazing, owners were beautiful, love seeing kids play together and having a good time. The water was divine, the walk absolutely jawdropping, the hike was a dying experience LOL, but worth every step, pain, ache and experience, the view was no words "SPECTACULAR." Worth every money paid for. We did not want to live. But we will be returning back soon.

Well done team, keep up the amazing work in what youse do to keep this a remarkable experience we have endured!

We are one happy family and loved everything about it!

Love from the Kavaefiafi Family ❤️❤️❤️

Amazing stay at Stonewood their new lodge. The lodge was stunning in design and comfort. The nature there is from another world. Really appreciated Turon Gates management efforts to make the riding happen for us as we are riders. Stargazing, campfire, BBQ… unforgettable trip with my family.

Highly recommend the Stonewood Cottage for a magical experience of the Blue Mountains.

Beautiful place to see wildlife (awesome birds, kangaroos, wallaby’s, horses and goats, frogs - look super carefully for little frogs near the river) and take time away from the city! Was super peaceful ✨
The cabin is expensive compared to camping trips but worth it if sharing with someone who hates camping 😅 was comfortable yet still so much nature and lovely river to swim in 💚

Sunvale Cabin at Turon Gates is a beautiful mountain retreat. As a first-time visitor, I had an amazing experience with my sisters and will definitely be coming back again.

The peaceful setting and seeing lots of kangaroos made the stay extra special. Claudia was very helpful, and the manager Alex was thoughtful.

Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway 🌿🦘

We are visiting from the US and staying in Sydney. Turon is a refreshing and peaceful retreat just 2.5 hours from Sydney. Upon arrival were awed by the beauty and saw so many Kangaroos.
Beautiful in their natural habitat.
Our accommodations (glamping tent) was beyond all expectations. Wonderful linens, a very comfortable king bed, luxury appointments and more. A peaceful and restful nature escape. The owners, Michael and Alex are lovely!
I would give more than 5 stars if I could.
Highly recommend

Each year I book is a weekend away for our anniversary. Turon Gates delivered the romantic goods. Stayed in a glamping tent which has everything you need. The bed by far is the comfiest bed we’ve slept in forever! The two geese acted as a welcoming party and even though they’re noisy they were by far the highlight of our stay. The wildlife, the geese, the horses and chickens make it what it is. Unfortunately we had terrible weather, rained most of our stay but that didn’t matter. The fire, the serenity, the wake up calls from the kookaburras at precisely 6.17am were perfect. If you’re looking for a romantic getaway I highly recommend booking a stay

If you are looking for a secluded magical place in nature not too far from Sydney, this one should go to the top of your list!
From large and flat camping sites by the river to charming log cabins, luxury glamping tents or the incredible Sunvale house, the choice is yours, the perfection is theirs. Accommodations are spread out on an enormous wilderness area of rolling hills and forested mountains where wildlife is your only visible neighbours. Walk, hike, canoe, ride a horse, cycle or just relax, soak it in and recharge.
Thank you for a truly magical stay!

Honestly an amazing experience, the view from sunvale is absolutely stunning, both sunset and sunrise are unbelievable, the stars at night are perfect, and the lodging is honestly some of the best glamping I’ve ever seen. Totally recommend and will definitely be coming back

Room:
The room was top-notch – clean, cozy, and thoughtfully set up. The kitchen was well-organised, complete with clean cutlery and everything we needed. The electric blanket was an absolute lifesaver for the chilly winter nights – especially since I usually need at least three layers to stay warm. That said, I had a bit too much to drink on the first night and forgot to turn it on… let’s just say, lesson learned after freezing through the night!

Service:
The service was excellent. The management team sent us a detailed email before arrival, including what to bring, how the utilities work, and even the expected weather. It was incredibly helpful and showed great attention to detail. Claudia stood out – professional, responsive, and very helpful throughout our stay.

Location:
While it’s about a 3-hour drive from Sydney, the location is absolutely worth it. Peaceful, quiet, and surrounded by nature – the perfect spot to unwind and disconnect from the city buzz.

We stayed for 2 nights and honestly, it wasn’t enough – if only I could sneak in a few more days of sick leave from work!

We really love our stay here. Even though the days of our stays are raining still we enjoyed it because of the view who give justice of our stay also the manager or owner is very accomodating especially when we left one of our things they are willing to post it. A very hospitable gesture.

My wife, our fur baby Mylo, and I had an absolutely wonderful time staying at River Cabin 4. The cabin was perfectly equipped with everything we needed for a cozy and comfortable stay. The scenery right outside the cabin was pure bliss — waking up to the sound of birds chirping and being surrounded by serene nature was just what we needed to unwind.

Mylo had the time of his life exploring the property, watching kangaroos, wallabies, and even some curious little goats! ???????? The hammock and BBQ setup added to the charm — chilling in the hammock with Mylo by my side was so therapeutic and rejuvenating.

A special thanks to the amazing Turon Gates team for the thoughtful complimentary extension, which made our stay even more memorable. Your warmth and hospitality truly made a difference! Kudos for creating such an unforgettable and relaxing experience. We can’t wait to return! ❤️????
