Redbank farm has been home to five generations of Superfine Merino wool Farmers. The charming homestead is set on 1000 acres of rolling hills, lush trees, and dams that offer plentiful grazing to sheep and cattle. Metcalfe's rural landscape still remains largely untouched, giving a real feeling of freedom and fresh air, filled with wildlife and sensational scenic adventures to enjoy, like the stunning cascades just up the road. Redbank offers sites across 200 acres of land, SITE 1 a main area offers 4 large sites suited to campers wanting to be super close to toilet, shower, camp kitchen, and playgrounds, which is a major hit with the kids making it a popular spot for families. The camp kitchen has dining space and barbecue facilities. There are about 6 paddock sites that are still within walking distance to all facilities but are nicely spread out to provide guests with there own space. We have 4 sites that you will either need to be a self-sufficient camper, or keen for a hike to facilities as these sites offer a lot more privacy and would need 4wD to access. 2 more sites that you must completely self sufficient and have 4wd skills. We are a no trace camp ground and ask you to take all waste with you when you leave. Dogs are permitted in camps but must be kept on a leash to protect our livestock. Redbank is a working Farm and you will likely see or hear evidence of this during your stay, but we are very considerate of our campers and have had a wonderful experience sharing our land so far and had very happy campers. BEYOND REDBANK156 Campers will find many more attractions in the area, Great spots for hiking, swimming, fishing or just straight up relaxing in the serenity. TRUPENS waterfalls are close by CASCADES and the Coliban River runs through Metcalfe AND EPPOLOCK just up the road. A short drive of 10-15min in all directions will take you to one of the funky little historic towns Kyneton, Castlemaine, Redesdale, and Malmsbury, and another 15 mins on to Daylesford and Trentham all filled with brilliant restaurants, cafes, vineyards, vibrant retail and market scene. What more could you possibly need for a great getaway?

Redbank156 Farm

I thoroughly enjoyed camping at Redbank156 farm. I had a nice secluded site with great views, it was peaceful, very easy to find and close to Castlemaine and Redesdale Pub. I found Crystal to be very welcoming and hospitable and look forward to camping there again.

Lovely April Camp!

We loved our stay at Redbank 156! We lucked out on the weather in April, perfect days, and not too cold overnight, but perfect for a fire! It was wonderful to be close to the play area for the two kids in our camp group. They loved the monkey bars + the fairy garden. The amenities were a nice touch, and Crystal was more than helpful throughout our stay. The hike up to the flag pole is definetly something you should pencil in when you visit Redbank 156! We will be back for sure.

Lush, welcoming and picturesque!

We had an excellent stay at Red Bank Farm! The property boasts multiple beautiful campsites, and we were fortunate to be placed right on top of the hill, offering a stunning view of grazing sheep and nearby cows. The lush green surroundings made our stay truly picturesque. It was comforting to see other campers around and we never felt cramped thanks to the ample space between sites. One of the highlights of our stay was hiring bikes to explore the property, adding an extra layer of fun to our experience. We would definitely return for another visit. The small touches like hammocks, fire pits and a community kitchen added to the charm of the place. Additionally, having access to clean toilets and hot showers on site was a great convenience. Overall, Red Bank Farm provided us with a perfect balance of nature, comfort, and amenities for a memorable camping experience. Highly recommended!

Amazing camp location. Sites were far apart so plenty of privacy. Massive space, Crystal was easy to coordinate with. Sunset and sunrise views were incredible. Will definitely go again.
