About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Modern cabin offering incredible views with fire pit, spa and hiking trails.

A countryside retreat. This cabin is on top of a hill offering glorious views of the Capertee Valley.
The valley is world renown for its bird-watching but this property is also a working farm so you can visit our cows, sheep, chickens or pick some fruit from the trees.
We have 420 acres for you to explore with creeks, mountain bike trails and direct access to the Wollemi National Park.
Our wildlife spotting includes wombats, kangaroos, wallabies and echidnas to name a few.

The cabin has its own deck and is right beside a large fire pit with an amazing view across the valley.
This location is the pick of the views on the entire property. Each window in the cabin offers stunning mountain views.

We are in a secluded location if you are looking for a peaceful stay.
The drive through the Capertee Valley to our property is spectacular.
The only sounds you will hear are chickens, sheep, cows and the bird life.

If you enjoy hiking then explore our 420 acres which is a mix of grazing land, creeks, bush tracks, swimming holes and rainforest like gullies. Our property borders Wollemi National Park and we have direct access to it.
The Glen Alice Trail & The Bicentennial Trail are hiking tracks that cross through our property.

'Cabins at The Nile' is our Facebook page if you wish to see further photos of our property.

If you enjoy swimming we have several sandy creeks, a pristine swimming hole and a heated swim spa that can accomodate large groups.

Feel free to pick the fruit that is in season from our trees. We have fig trees, lemons, persimmon, plums, pears and mulberries to name a few.

The fire pit right beside the cabin is very popular with our guests. There is a grill plate atop so you can cook dinner over the fire or enjoy watching the sunset colours on the cliffs. We offer firewood for your stay at a small cost or feel free to bring your own.
When the sun goes down the star gazing is spectacular.

We have an additional brand new cabin ready to rent. It is on another part of our property which is more secluded. Please message me if you are interested in staying in this other cabin.

Own a 4wd? You are welcome to drive around our property and take in all the tracks & views that have been created in the landscape.

Take a drive to the 'Paddock Cafe' which is about 20 minutes drive from our property to grab your breaky or lunch feed. They use local produce and sell a large variety of locally made products.

Have a larger group?
We can accomodate camping and caravans. If you wish to book the cabin and then have camp sites nearby also we have done that before for larger groups. We book our camp sites through Hipcamp.

Off Grid Oasis

The Cabins at The Nile was the perfect spot to relax in secluded comfort. The cabin had everything we needed and the spa, and fire pit were great. The view at the top of the Glen Alice track in Wollemi National Park was worth the climb. All in all a great retreat. Thanks Mandy and Jake and Ziggy for making us feel so welcome

A slice of paradise under the stars

What an incredible place to stay. Capertee Valley is a secret spot that not many people know about. It's worth the extra drive out the back of the Blue Mountains - as the scenery is beautiful and it really is off grid. Beautiful hikes, friendly host and a cosy cabin with everything you need for a few days recouperation. The spa and food cooked on the firepit are highlights. The photos don't do it justice - you need to see it to see the beauty of the spot.

Great Escape with Warm Hosts

The location has stunning views in every direction. Facilities provided were modern, clean, and in perfect condition. The hosts Mandy and Jacob are some of the friendliest people to come across. Their dog, Ziggy is the cutest. I recommend taking some good meat with you and good hiking gear for some great walks around the location. The kitchen had enough equipment to cook some good meals with the electric stove a handy companion. Firewood is available onsite.

Amazing scenic stay, breathtaking

We originally booked for 2 nights but extended to 3 because it was so peaceful, stunning and amazing. The large warm water jacuzzi was a nice surprise! Especially swimming at night under the stays (it's abit hidden, down the hill in front of the home). The firepit allowed us to have great bbqs and the owners were so nice and accommodating! We ended up having drinks with them on the last night by the fireplace. Bring enough food for the stay because it's quite isolated. The views were breathtaking and different to other tiny homes, for the price we paid it was great value. I have already recommended this home to friends and family and we will coming back for sure! PS. Their dog Rizzy was a cute friend that kept us company the whole stay, a great tour guide amongst the farm.

An amazing getaway

My partner and I spent 2 nights at “The Nile” to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. The property was absolutely stunning and the space was very clean, modern and comfortable. We also enjoyed the fire pit on both nights. Mandy and Jacob are both very friendly and great communicators. They also provided us with a great list of things to do around their property. Our highlight was the hike we took in the Wollemi National Park which backs onto their property. It was a steep hike but offered spectacular views at the top. We cannot recommend this property highly enough and we will definitely be back to visit in the future. Thank you Mandy and Jacob!

So peaceful

The Capertee Valley is stunning, secluded, peaceful and full of wildlife. If you want to rest and enjoy great views while listening to the amazing bird life tis the place for you. If you like bushwalking the endless tracks, some leading into the national park will keep you busy and happy. The hosts Mandy and Jacob are lovely people, well organised and easy to deal with. They have two beautiful young boys and Ryder will tell you everything about their farm or give you space whichever you prefer. The only reason not come is if you want nightlife apart from wombats and Roos . Loved every minute
