Regional Luxury
Luxurious experiences can be enjoyed around NSW. Byron Bay, on the far North Coast, has stunning beaches and lush hinterland on either side of this laid-back coastal town. Off the North Coast, Lord Howe Island combines natural beauty with endless nature experiences; closer to Sydney, is the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage Area, a dramatic region of thick eucalypt forests, waterfalls and lookouts.
Hunter Valley
Australia's oldest, continuously-planted wine region, the Hunter Valley is also the most popular and especially pretty during autumn and winter, when vines turn a warm, orange-red and grapes are ripe for harvest. This pretty valley has more than 120 wineries and cellar doors, award-winning restaurants, country cafes and providores showcasing the best regional produce. Less than two hours' drive from Sydney, the Hunter Valley is the perfect getaway to relax and enjoy some of the best food and wine in Australia.
Learn more about the Hunter Valley.
Events
This autumn and winter, NSW will host a spectacular array of world-class events that include art exhibitions, high-adrenalin sports, family entertainment and world premieres. Below is just a sample of what's coming up this season.

See Sydney and its surrounding suburbs where the attractions range from beaches and the trendy city shopping and café scene to colonial history on the harbour and historic sites in south west Sydney.
Next, head a little further north to the Hunter Valley region where the focus has to be food! With a wide range of boutique wineries, restaurants and accommodation you can enjoy a stay with a view. If you're looking for a coastal break, a beach escape or hinterland adventures, check out amazing North Coast for great holiday ideas.
The Blue Mountains is also a food journey, as well as its historic link to the settlement of NSW. Eat at local cafes and restaurants, visit the Three Sisters and discover hidden treasures while wandering the local shops in Leura and Katoomba.
Visit the NSW South Coast for beaches, friendly seaside towns and coastal getaways set against a background of green fields, farming and agriculture. Perfect for an escape in either the warmer or cooler months the South Coast has something for everyone.
For a holiday with a difference, explore Lord Howe Island, Outback NSW and Country NSW.
