Balgarr means mountain in local Gattang language\. 600 metres above sea level on clear nights it feels like you are close enough to touch the Milky Way\! The cabin is off grid, includes a small kitchenette with 2 burner gas stove, fridge, has double bed and 2 single beds\. We have a BBQ and fire pit\. This is rustic living, no flash flush here but a practical long drop eco\-friendly compost toilet and a fantastic gas hot water shower out in the elements\! You will need to bring your own bedding, pillows sheets etc\. we are on tank water and at times it is low\! Dogs are welcome but please bring their own bedding\. The property is also home to local wildlife and filled with lots of old trees, plants and flowers whilst enjoy your morning cuppa on the balcony The Bulga Plateau is the place to unwind, swim in mountain rivers and enjoy the Old Growth forests \(yes we still have a few left\)\. As we are 45 minutes from the closest town, you will need to fuel up before you head up the mountain\. Also bring drinking water and all the food you will require for your stay\. The Elands general store carries basic groceries, beer wine and spirits\. Loads of walking tracks nearby; the Legendary Ellenborough Falls is 5 mins by car or half hour walk through the Elands Village Hour and half from Port Macquarie and Forster and one hour from Taree in the hinterland from Wingham or Comboyne \(coming from Port Macquarie\)\. There is an endless network of gravel roads and fire trails waiting to be explored, taking you through the national parks, state forests and undulating farmlands of the Bulga Plateau\. This delightful self contained cabin is a perfect getaway for you to work on your project, \(longer stays can be negotiated\) be it visual art; a book; a film script; photography or simply forest breathing to clear the mind\. Blue Knob \(Kaoraoa\) at 1014 metres, is one of the highest peaks in the forest with Panoramic Plateau Views of the surrounding country\. 40 mins by car\. I'm retired now and appreciate even more, living in paradise\. The usually good amount of rain, the ever warmer summers when we can swim in the Ellenborough River\. Yes after 40 years on the Bulga I can feel the changes in the environment, come and enjoy\! ## Key facts - Check-in: 2:00pm - Check-out: 12:00am - Coordinates: -31.623165, 152.320667 ## Address Elands, New South Wales, AU ## Amenities - Biking - Cabin - Drinking\_water - Fire\_pit - Fires - Forest - Glamping - Hiking - Hot\_showers - Kitchen - Mountain - Mountain\_biking - Ohv\_riding - Photography - Potable Water - Showers - Store - Swimming - Toilets - Trash - Trash\_disposal - Waterfall - Wildlife Watching - Wildlife\_viewing ## Structured data (schema.org) Also available as raw JSON: http://ssr-app-zpimxgrglq-uc.a.run.app/listings/campgrounds/glamping-balgarr-cabin-retreat-elands-new-south-wales.json ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Campground", "@id": "http://ssr-app-zpimxgrglq-uc.a.run.app/listings/campgrounds/glamping-balgarr-cabin-retreat-elands-new-south-wales", "name": "Glamping Balgarr Cabin Retreat", "description": "In the hinterland of the Mid North Coast NSW on Biripi Country.
