Stanwell Park has a fascinating history

Jacaranda House is situated between two natural creeks (Stanwell and Hargraves Creeks) and two of the first houses owned by famous Australians. Sir Thomas Mitchell built the first house in Stanwell just down the road from Jacaranda house and it overlooks the main beach and two lagoons that are fed by the creeks. Sir Thomas was Australia's first Surveyor General who discovered and mapped much of the early colony. He declared Stanwell Park the jewel for where he wanted to reside. Just up the road in the other direction is 'Hillcrest', where Lawrence Hargraves first designed his box kite that lifted him 16 feet off the ground (hence the name of the local cafe) and led directly to the Wright Brothers' ability to take the first heavier than air powered flight. Indeed the first commercial airplane ever built was named in honour of Lawrence's remarkable contributions. As an interesting aside, two houses up from Jacaranda is Articles Art Gallery, originally the second Mitchell House and later the first Guest House in Stanwell Park (opposite the first location of the railway station) and nearby the famous rail line viaduct. In honour of this history, Jacaranda House has a gallery of historical photographs.

- "Although there is minimal public transport and Ubers this js a great location to just get away from it all. Would highly recommend very peaceful and quiet " - "Best place for a weekend getaway!!! Loved every bit about it (especially the sauna and hot tub)! Place was extremely clean and had amazing modern features!!! Cannot wait to book again, thank you Robert for your kind hospitality! " - "I had a great experience here. Number one for me was safety, the whole property felt very secure and there were locks on all the internal doors too which I like. Robert introduced himself on the first day then used the app to contact me once which I appreciate as a solo female traveler.The location was very pretty, you get an ocean view from the garden and even the street is beautiful surrounded by trees. The drive down to the beach was lovely too, you get a real mountain/bush/beach combination. The bed was very comfortable, shower was great and the aircon kept the space nice and warm. The host obviously put effort into including everything you could need. Washing liquid, cleaning supplies, high quality linens and beautiful cutlery and crockery. I really appreciated the guest book that had info on local things to see and do. The TVs had every type of streaming service I could think of. The check in process was seamless but admittedly I struggled to find checkout info so I wasn’t sure if I did that right. In terms of cleanliness, I would probably give it a 4.5 out of 5, as there were somethings like the inside shelves of the fridge and the door inside the microwave that I cleaned before using but I’m very particular. The most important stuff for me was the bed linens and bathroom which were spotless. The photos and description on the listing were very accurate, heaps of parking and easy to get to. I stayed for 12 days and had no issues, I would definitely recommend. "

We provide 3 separate accommodation facilities each with there own private access and bathrooms. Feel free to contact us to discuss which accommodation facility best suits your requirements or see the other listings of YellowtailStay. You may want to chat with us when you arrive or you can pick up the key from the deposit and never have to interact with us at all, we hope not though.

YellowtailStay - Stanwell Tops is set in a small acreage of stunning rolling lawns with a sandstone surrounded dam and encompassed by bush. We are a 5 minute drive to any shops.

We are a 1 minute walk to world famous Bald Hill Lookout, over the road from The Royal National Park and a 5 minute drive to Stanwell Park Beach, wedding venues, The Tops Centre and Helensburgh, (although, these are a very impractical walk, as are the nearest shops). Bald Hill is a haven for hang gliders and paragliders and the view of the Northern Illawarra, the escarpment and The Sea Cliff Bridge is rated by many, as one of the best in the world. The start of the Royal National Park Coast Walk is 1 km away just past the iconic Otford Pantry but there are numerous other bush walks near by, with a couple running next to the property.

The property is close to numerous wedding venues at Stanwell Tops and Lillyvale. All are short drives but impractical walks.

Guests have access to a fully equipped laundry with a clothes dryer and ironing board.

Coffee shops, restaurants and supermarkets are a short but spectacular drive to the south at Wombarra and Austinmere or a 5 minute drive north to Helensburgh. The Symbio Zoo is 5 minutes away with a golf driving range and putt putt across the road. The Boomerang Golf Course is a further 5 minutes drive. Horse riding at Otford Valley Farm is 5 minutes drive with the main trail running along our boundary.

Cycling and motor bike riding are popular pursuits in the area and there are many rainforest walks, 10-20 minutes to the north and spectacular escarpment walks to the south.

Rock fishing venues are all around, the orchard outlets of Darks Forrest are 10 minutes drive and the beaches of the Royal National Park and Audley are a half hour along Lady Wakehurst Drive. The Govinda Valley Retreat with its yoga and meditation centre and vegetarian cooking classes is just along the Hacking River and The Hindu, Sri Venkateswara Temple, a 3 minute drive.

Trains from Central or Sutherland can take you to Otford Station which is about a 1.8km gentle downhill walk from YellowtailStay. If the walk from the station is too much we are happy to arrange a pickup if we are available.

Bald Hill and the beautiful Otford Valley really are the centre of the universe, but a long way from the stress of every day living

- "The Otford Valley B&B was the perfect location from which to explore the Coastal Path that runs through the Royal National Park; and then recuperate with a dip in the sea or one of the many ocean pools that dot the coast from Otford to Wollongong. This capacious and comfortable B&B was very generously provisioned; in addition to the food and drink, our hosts ensured the unit was well stocked with all manner of spices, oils and condiments self-catering might require.

The house itself was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with all the essentials. Each bedroom has been thoughtfully decorated, super comfortable beds and lots of linen to choose from. You have a delightful view of the beach and coastline from the balconies and the main bedroom, simply stunning and immediately relaxing. We could hear the sound of the waves at night.
