The Lodge at Tinnenburra is a secluded getaway just 55 minutes from Canberra. Located above the most picturesque waterfalls on the Queanbeyan River; the Lodge started as a humble fishing cabin and has evolved over the years into a cozy, off grid sustainable

The drive in through neighbouring farms and national parks sets the tone for the escape from the suburban surrounds of the Canberra region. Enjoy exploring the farm, the surrounding Yanununbeyan National Park or exploring along the gorges and flats of the river. There is an amazing array or native flora and fauna - spot the Platypus in the river gorges; the wombats on the flats in the evenings; the wallabies and kangaroos grazing in the paddocks nearby and more.

With over 600 acres of Australian bush, our property is ideal for campers that want their own space. We are completely off-grid (no wifi to distract you) and we run off tank water (for this reason showers are only available for two hours in the evening). There are multiple camp sites on the property - some are close to hot showers and toilets, others are within a short walking distance. Some sites are perfect for our self sufficient campers who might want a nice private location and don't need access to amenities.
There are two shared camp kitchen areas (with pizza ovens and bbqs). We have two amenities blocks with toilets and hot showers and two further compost toilets located at other sites. Campfires are permitted in designated areas (check with us when booking) and firewood can be added to your booking - we do require at least 24 hours notice if you want wood.
There are lots of old-style games for the kids such as cricket, tennis, playground, bikes available, a swim in the dam and general country running around fun! Unfortunately we no longer have our flying fox, but there are plenty of other activities to keep you busy. We have some great bush walking areas where you might be lucky enough to see our resident wombats or our breeding pair of Wedge-tailed Eagles.
The property dates back to the early 1900s and there are numerous historic buildings on the property. The earliest is a wooden slab hut that was built around the beginning of the 19th century - the Goulburn Penny Post newspaper, dated 3 December 1904 lines the walls of the hut. It also has a two shearing stand wooden shed built by Marcus Dawe in 1922.
We try to make sure all of our guests have a great experience - so if you have any special requests reach out to us and have a chat!

Merigan Farm is a 1400 Hectare (3500 acre) working sheep and cattle farm. Our family has lived at Merigan for more than 50 years. It has been a farm since the 1840s and we still run sheep and cattle in a regenerative manner, to this day. It’s a pleasure to be able to share the countryside and farm with guests.
We currently offer two accommodation options:
Cherry Tree - A cabin with a beautiful farm outlook. With a bookcase full of books and a fire pit for cosy evenings, it's the perfect escape.
The Quarters - A private section of the old farmhouse offering rural charm and a perfectly comfortable stay.
Merigan is the name of the local Parish and on Ngunawal country. It has been recounted by indigenous locals that Merigan means Dingo. The story being that Merigan fought the Bunyip and in their tussle created the rivers and creeks across the range.
It’s a southern Australian Mediterranean environment with distinct seasons – it can reach over 42 degrees and in the winter its been known often to snow. Sometimes in summer the easterly sea breezes reaches over the range and the smell of sea salt cools the hot evening.
Merigan offers a range of activities, to relax and settle into rural life. One of the best ways to get the feel of Merigan is just taking a walk around the property. We have 3500 acres of space to meander around and a great spots for picnics, drinks and photographs. Feel free to use the Tennis Court, balls and racquets under one of the verandas at the front of the house and the bocce court at the bottom of the garden.
Bungendore, 18km away, is a thriving little country town with Galleries, gift-shops, cafés, bakeries, coffee shops and bars. The Top Pub (The Royal ) is the more casual of the hotels. The Bottom Pub (The Lake George) has a fancy restaurant attached to the more informal pub area.
Braidwood is a funky Heritage town about 25km East of Bungendore and well worth a visit. It has outstanding shops and eateries and 2 pubs. The Braidwood Hotel being my favourite.
Tarago is 14km away. The Loaded Dog do meals but mainly on weekends (Pizzas during the week). Best to check as it varies.
Other local attractions include Lark Hill Winery, Lerida Estate Winery, Turlla Truffles and Bungendore Woodworks.

The space consists of a queen-sized bed with 100% cotton white line-dried sheets, and a modern ensuite bathroom. A sitting area with a sink, refrigerator, microwave, and stove. The cooking space is quite small and best for fairly basic food preparation. Also included is a TV. (32" flat screen) and a DVD player.

There are ceiling fans if required. A 'Tastic' heater is in the bathroom for extra comfort.

You will find some up-to-date magazines to relax with while here, DVDs, and complimentary chocolate.
The nearest shop/food outlet is in Yass, so I advise guests to bring dinner with them or to book a home-cooked meal to be served in the BnB.
Our guests have exclusive use of the swimming pool and deck with elevated views of the surrounding spectacular scenery. Feel free to wander around the garden. We endeavour to keep the pool sparkling, but cannot always guarantee perfection. No diving please, for your own safety.

52km from Canberra · 1 site
Modern, self-contained, pool house, and working sheep/cattle property in a peaceful country setting, 20 minutes from Yass. Great water views overlooking Murrumbidgee River and exclusive use of swimming pool. Break your trip with your four-legged friend/s, or stay a few days and relax in our clean country's fresh air.
See the stars, and hear the silence.
The space consists of a queen-sized bed with 100% cotton white line-dried sheets, and a modern ensuite bathroom. A sitting area with a sink, refrigerator, microwave, and stove. The cooking space is quite small and best for fairly basic food preparation. Also included is a TV. (32" flat screen) and a DVD player.
We are very pleased to announce that we have just installed reverse cycle heating and air conditioning for your added comfort.
There are ceiling fans if required. A 'Tastic' heater is in the bathroom for extra comfort.
Enjoy exclusive use of our 10m swimming pool, BBQ, and deck.
We will take children, over 5 years old, who are able to swim, but would insist that parents supervise at all times.
A fold-up bed is available as an extra bed, and the charge for extras per night is $30.00, to cover costs with extra laundry, cleaning etc.
You will find some up-to-date magazines to relax with while here, DVDs, and complimentary chocolate.
The nearest shop/food outlet is in Yass, so I advise guests to bring dinner with them or to book a home-cooked meal to be served in the BnB.
Our guests have exclusive use of the swimming pool and deck with elevated views of the surrounding spectacular scenery. Feel free to wander around the garden. We endeavour to keep the pool sparkling, but cannot always guarantee perfection. No diving please, for your own safety.
A BBQ is available for use on the deck.
Other things to note
Continental breakfast is included, and if you require an evening meal, I can provide a two-course dinner for $40/person.. Please give advance notice if this is required, preferably when booking.
We are a pet-friendly B&B, and welcome your pets but expect them to be clean and obedient. We charge $10 extra for one dog/night and $15/night for two dogs/night. We ask that you provide your pets with bedding and food bowls, and they are not allowed on the bed or sofa under any circumstances. Please don't go out and leave your pets behind, unless under very special circumstances and we have been asked first.

Great spot to stay. The hosts are lovely people and have put so much effort into the camp areas, it's gorgeous.
You can play tennis, go for a ride or a swim in the dam, play golf and so many other options they have made for happy campers.
Amenities area great and work perfectly, such a large area too!

Nice relatively flat campsite by the Murrumbidgee River. The site gives you an uninterrupted view up and down the river. Plenty of shady tress if needed but plenty of sun areas if you're relying on solar or you need extra rays. We stayed here previously and we'll be back. The hosts are very helpful and responsive. There isn't any phone coverage here but helps everyone to focus on nature for a change.

We stayed in a tent at site one over the long weekend. It is the second time I have stayed here and it is one of my favourite sites near Canberra. The property is beautiful and peaceful. I will definitely be back for round three.

Awesome spot on the edge of the Tumut river. Easy access, surrounded by eucalypts and grazing cattle, and a drop dunny close by. Wayne’s a top bloke; came for a chat and gave us a bag of fresh apples. We spent the day fishing and drifting down the river. Rainbow trout for dinner, straight from the river. Definitely recommend.

We stayed in the tent area next to the Tumut River, very easy to walk down to the river for a swim, the water was refreshing and clean. It was great having the cows roaming free.

Was a lovely location with plenty of space and the most welcoming host. Maps did send us to the wrong place but that was our bad for not following instructions. Learn from our mistakes

My service dog and I had such a great time.
Jacqui made us feel welcome and we were able to stroll around the farm looking at the animals. A peaceful place to stay and beautiful views. We stayed in the barn accommodation and looking forward to returning and camping at one of the campsites. I would definitely recommend to anyone who enjoys being out of the hustle and bustle of the city but close enough if you wanted to visit towns nearby.
