New South Wales is a stunning Australian state that one must see at least once in their lifetime. It is home to beautiful cities with iconic landmarks, including the capital city, Sydney. If you have already seen The Opera House and the picturesque Harbour Bridge, and you long for something new, you can drive all the way to easternmost Sydney and surf the waves of Byron Bay’s gorgeous beaches. Are you more into guided tours and picnicking rather than water sports? The Blue Mountains Botanic Garden might be the perfect place for you. For your upcoming visit, do you want quiet accommodations that let you reconnect with Mother Earth? If so, browse through this list of the top secluded cabins in New South Wales, Australia.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) host status, recent guest reviews, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and remoteness of location. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 13, 2024.
