Wildside Sanctuary

The birds, the gorgeous surroundings, the quiet, the lovely hosts, and Rosie the dog make this such a peaceful escape from the city. Every visit leaves me feeling like I've reset my nervous system and found my zen, as if I'd travelled a world away. I'd give this place 10 stars if I could!

Wildlife is incredible here, and I really admire Sarah and John's vision for bringing even more of it to the property. We stayed in Frog Hollow, and the tiny home lived up to its name. The bed was comfortable, and everything was clean and tidy. The Sanctuary is tucked into a beautiful spot in the Blue Mountains. I can't wait to come back for another weekend escape. And make sure to check out Wally the Wollemi pine while you're there!

Rosie, the resident lab, was a highlight, popping by at just the right times and enjoying her sunbathing sessions. Sarah and John also gave us helpful tips about things to do and places to spot wildlife on the property. We had a great weekend retreat at Frog Hollow. Sitting with Rosie on the outdoor day bed on the spacious balcony, especially during the golden morning and evening hours, was lovely.

Frog Hollow is an amazing tiny home, surrounded by nature. My partner and I arrived to find a large Wollemi Pine at the steps, and the hosts were passionate about nature and wonderful. Falling asleep to frogs calling by the dam was so relaxing. It’s a great location and good value. If you’re into nature, I’d 100% recommend staying here. 10/10!
