There's a reason for no "big 4" parks near
Sydney.
Yes, no more hints given.Nice southerly coastal fishing trip someday.

If you stay there Andrew it's on your right heading towards the city, you will have to go to next set of lights & do a round
the block loop to get back to it.Regards Bob

Andrew
We stayed at Parklea Garden Village 02 9629 1500, a Big 4 Park in July this year. Stayed 4 nights, (we have a soft floor camper), no worries, we have 4 kids, 14 to 8. Not much of a playground, but then we were out most of the days, nice BBQ area and great Kitchen/Eating area (nice and warm).
Dont know how far from Parramatta it is but we got the ferry into
SYdney one day, about 10-15mins by car from memory

Andrew,
There is also a caravan park at Dural which is about a 20-25 bus ride to Parramatta. The buses are fairly regular and right at the door. You could catch one straight to Parramatta via
Castle Hill. The caravan park would probably be in the NRMA guide book as suggested by the previous person. Contrary to some spellings
Sydney is actually spelt
Sydney not bleep ney and some people do live here by choice!! Each to their own and all that!! Sorry perhaps I should address this to the main offender and not you but it really gets up my goat!

Sorry.forgot to add that you can also catch the citybus that takes you straight into
Sydney(about a 20-25 min trip adults$12,chn not sure) at the door also or you can also catch a bus to Pennant Hills station and catch a train about a 30-40 minute ride.Next to the caravan park is The Vicar of Wakefield pub-good for a feed and next to that is a great,great park for kids-good climbing equipment.Across from the park is McDonalds and KFC. There is also a 24 hr servo. If you're wondering how I know so much-it's just down the road from me-I drive past it about 3 times a day!
