About us
Our Locations
Farmstay
Capertee Valley, NSW
As you pass over the cattle grid at the top of the property and descend down to the homestead, it’s easy to have your breath taken away by the views. The valley opens up, revealing the natural beauty which is best enjoyed at sunset by the fire as the setting sun sets alight its own light show on the surrounding escarpment.
Wilderness
Turondale, NSW
Wildnest Wilderness is located on the top of the ridge line and offers 800 acres of bush to explore or simply gaze over. Depending on your visit you might be surrounded by snow, running streams or the local wallabies and roos who pop their head in to say hello.

Our Story
It all began with a shared love of nature and a deep desire to find a pocket of paradise away from the hustle and bustle of Sydney and work life. A place where we could go to disconnect… and reconnect. A place that would leave us feeling recharged and ready for whatever comes next.
We bought our property in Capertee Valley back in 2017, and ever since we set foot on the land, we have wanted to share the feeling that we get when we spend time there. The property served us well as a weekend escape, it became our home during covid, and now we want other people to experience the magic.
In 2020, we stumbled across another pocket of paradise at Turondale, located about 25 minutes drive from Bathurst. It was in direct contrast to our farm at Capertee and we purchased it with one goal in mind - to create an escape for those who love to immerse themselves in nature.
There is one connection that brings both properties together and that is they are best enjoyed at the end of each day by the fire gazing up at the starry skies.
