Baileys Cottage

Perfectly positioned on the fringe of Glenrock State Conservation Area, Baileys Cottage has been tastefully refurbished to offer comfortable holiday accommodation close to Newcastle.

It’s a great place for a weekend getaway or family holiday. Glenrock State Conservation Area conserves over 500 hectares of natural coastline near the heart of Newcastle, with striking headlands, attractive beaches and pockets of littoral rainforest.

There are loads of things to do in Glenrock State Conservation Area. Be sure to bring your mountain bike because the trails in Glenrock are there to explore, and don’t forget your fishing rod if you want to try your luck the park’s coastal spots.

The cottage is only a short drive from the local shopping centre and the cafes of Newcastle, so you can easily pick up supplies for your holiday or enjoy an evening out. Merewether Beach isn’t far away either, so be sure to pack your swimmers or surfboard.
