This site is suitable for tents and camper trailers (need reasonable backing skills and 4WD) The Laneway which is close to the babbling creek is suitable for those with a small caravan, or motorhome, 2WD etc, along with tent campers.

NOTE: On our farm there is limited phone coverage in the valley (The Laneway) Topspot and The Lookout/Highview do have coverage. Pets are welcome, however, please ensure they are kept under control (unless discussed with the host) at all times as we have our livestock and are surrounded by neighboring livestock, as well as the wildlife that frequently visits. Please note: This is an active small farm, therefore work may need be continued throughout your stay possibly necessitating the use of machinery and tending to our livestock.

Camping near Adelaide Hills guide

Overview

A stone’s throw from Adelaide CBD (ok, not quite), the Adelaide Hills is one of the most picturesque regions of South Australia. Historic hillside villages, vine-clad slopes, and kangaroo-filled bushlands blanket the famous wine region, and the wineries of Barossa Valley and Mclaren Vale‌ lie right nearby. With wine tasting, bushwalks, and botanical gardens to explore, the Adelaide Hills make a popular getaway from the city, and there are plenty of accommodation options. You’ll find caravan parks, holiday parks, and Hipcamps near popular towns like Hahndorf, Stirling, Cudlee Creek‌, and Piccadilly‌, many of which offer amenities such as a camp kitchen‌, free wifi, or an on-site swimming pool. Alternatively, the rural campgrounds around Kuitpo Forest and Mount Crawford have unpowered sites better suited to self-contained campervans and motorhomes. Further afield, Onkaparinga River National Park and Para Wirra Conservation Park have camping areas for tents and camper trailers.
