Red Rocks Mountain Retreat is an off-grid, renovated stone and timber house. It is secluded on 40 acres, nestled between Cambewarra Range Nature Reserve and old growth forest, with views to the South Coast.

Winning Home Design Magazine’s ‘Renovation of the Year’ Award 2024, the main kitchen, dining and living area showcases a rustic raking ceiling design featuring striking raw timber poles and beams, polished concrete floor with large windows and doorways that draw in the view and beautiful natural light. The bathroom area features invigorating open indoor and outdoor showers with a cosy, sunken outdoor bathtub to enjoy the views.

The feature sandstone red rocks wrap around one end of the house where a flat rock landing accommodates a relaxing area to read, unwind and observe the views to the south coast.

Strictly no parties at this property - please.

There are extensive night road works to repair landslip damage on Moss Vale Road and restore full road access at Cambewarra Mountain. Moss Vale Road on Cambewarra Mountain will be closed in both directions from 7pm to 5am, Sunday to Thursday from April to June. Vehicle access is permitted for 5 minutes at 8pm, 9pm, 10pm, 12am, 2am or 4am. Detours are also available through Kangaroo Valley Road.

Where will I be?

Red Rocks Mountain Retreat is positioned near the top of the Cambewarra range at an elevation of 590m and located 6.42km off Moss Vale Road along an unsealed gravel and dirt road that passes through the temperate rainforest, dry shrub and old growth forest of the Cambewarra Nature Reserve. [Please note the unsealed gravel and dirt road is OK for 2WD cars and an adventure in itself, however with a few undulations, we do not recommend very low clearance cars.]

Red Rocks Retreat is one on the most secluded properties in the Kangaroo Valley region, with regular sighting of echidnas, abundance of bird life and endangered rock wallabies.

From this secluded mountain location you are amongst nature, with stunning views, relaxing hikes to amazing lookouts and mountain biking throughout the mountain range. Yet, you are still close to it all with short drives to Kangaroo Valley township located within 20 mins, Berry and the South Coast, a 30-35 min from the property.

Red Rocks Trig Point lookout is a comfortable 2.4km hike/walk from Red Rocks Mountain Retreat with sensational views over Kangaroo Valley. This trail/lookout is great for twitching, hiking, and walking, and it's unlikely you'll encounter many other people while exploring. The trails and lookout are open year-round and is spectacular to visit at sunset.
