We're going back up to Sydney in a couple of days - where can we stay thats a bit out of the rat race - say up to an hour from CBD that is nice, quite and takes dogs?

Has anyone tried the 2 out towards Windsor - and how far is this from the hustle and bustle? Is it an inner city park??

Sorry if questions sound silly but don't know Sydney very well

All advice appreciated.

There are some along the Hawkesbury River and up at Wisemans Ferry but not sure if they allow dogs, in any case that's bejond Windsor, lets say 2 hours out of Sydney.

Bill,
There is a Van Park at Emu Plains that I think allows Dogs.
If you are going into the city outside of the Peak (after930am) it will take just over an hour straight down the M4.
Hope this helps

Bill - emu plains is also broadly called Penrith - its western suburbs of sydney and is at the foot of the blue mountains and as the other member mentioned it has direct access to the M4 freeway , which is the freeway that goes all the way into town ( well most of the way )

Have stayed at a part at kellyville out on windsor road NTH WST which had dogs (i think) as long as they are in your van or tent and small. Goo run in to the city off peake on the M2 i thnink it was.

Old clean facilities we were there for a few day as well had no problems with the residents.

Gday
Wollongong and surrounding area south of Sydney would be worth considering, absolutely lovely scenery along the coast, probably an hour out of CBD would have you at Stanwell Park with a car, or Wonoona/Bulli using the train.
I stayed in the Lane Cove caravan Park right in the middle of Sydney, but might aswell have been 100 miles away...surrounded by natopnal park bush...but its run by National parks and wildfires...so dogs would be out. Then there is Berowra/mount white/brooklyn up north...probably getting an hour north now, but train is available there aswell...

The Elrancho CP @ Berowra closed a few years ago, it was the first one to hit the NSW news with expulsion of residents.

There is nothing at Brooklyn

The park @ Mt White can be seen on Site Link It looks to be a fishermans type.

If you intend to use public transport some good links to use follow. NSW state public transport does not recognise other states seniors cards - however Centrelink pension cards are usable.
