Important information:
Linen not provided. Doona, sheets, pillow tea towels needed.
PLEASE NOTE: This is a "glamping" experience so insects and nature is a part of the experience. The tents are set on a concrete slab which is regularly sprayed however insects will still be around as the tents are set in the middle of the paddock so please be mindful of this.
This property uses Solar Power (not connected to the grid) so please be aware of energy usage. All lights and general appliances are low energy and remain suitable for use over an extended sunless/cloudy period. If you drain the solar you will lose power and hot water.
Both domes have aircon. The air-con cannot be left on. They were installed so if you have been out exploring all day and return to find a very hot or cold dome it gives you the ability to modify the temperature quickly. Once the dome has been cooled down or heated up (in our experience this takes approximately 10-15 mins) you can switch it off and use the fans provided if the evening is warm. If you leave the aircon continually running or forget to turn it off and go out you will lose power and the power will not return until the solar has had a chance to recharge the next day.
There are 2 portable fans inside the domes and a fan for outdoor use for hot days. To reduce the impact on hot days the domes have rooftop curtains that should remain closed along with the front window curtains to keep the tents cooler.
Guests have access to the entire 120 acre property. There is a gate for access to the paddocks beyond the dome fencing. The gate needs to be closed immediately after entering and exiting to prevent cows entering the dome area and causing damage or exiting onto the main road.
You can stroll along the road until you reach the bushland on the far end of the property. We do not recommend walking through long grass on the property without protective footwear as snakes are known to live in the hinterlands region.
Please be aware the driveway to the domes is not sealed. It is a gravel driveway.
In the rain it may be slippery. Parking at the top of the property is recommended for cars that are not suitable for gravel inclines.

Gob-smacking views of Nimbin Rocks. Photos can't convey the mystical presence you get in real life - it's like camping inside a poem.
Horse-shoe bordered by 2km of Goolmangar Creek - known platypus habitat.
Secluded - but only 5-min drive to Nimbin village, the alternative capital (pop 1,600) of Australia.
Sites are out of eye-shot from 'the others'. Limit of five dispersed sites across 30 acres.
You'll need to Arrive Before Dark to be directed. Really, you do.
Creek-sites suit experienced, self-contained campers (with 4wd) that like a bit of space. & know how to deal with their own shit. Literally.
Season Update: We're now in 4wd-only season. If you have 2wd, it may be possible, but have to check with me first.
Cons:
MUST check-in before dark.
Camping (especially creek sites) is weather-dependent - not accessible in extended periods of rain (by 4wd, or otherwise) - but who wants to camp in the rain anyway?
In 'dry-windows' , even 2wd is fine, but do check the forecast/correspond with me before booking. If it's looking grim, it's cool to cancel with 24-hrs notice.
It's a farm. Not a centralized campground offering full-amenities or caravan access.
As free-range campers 'on-that-farm, there are some free-range cows' (& chooks) . So you'll need to partially share the land with them. They're curious, but not aggressive.

Important information:
Linen not provided. Doona, sheets, pillow tea towels needed.
PLEASE NOTE: This is a "glamping" experience so insects and nature is a part of the experience. The tents are set on a concrete slab which is regularly sprayed however insects will still be around as the tents are set in the middle of the paddock so please be mindful of this.
This property uses Solar Power (not connected to the grid) so please be aware of energy usage. All lights and general appliances are low energy and remain suitable for use over an extended sunless/cloudy period. If you drain the solar you will lose power and hot water.
Both domes have aircon. The air-con cannot be left on. They were installed so if you have been out exploring all day and return to find a very hot or cold dome it gives you the ability to modify the temperature quickly. Once the dome has been cooled down or heated up (in our experience this takes approximately 10-15 mins) you can switch it off and use the fans provided if the evening is warm. If you leave the aircon continually running or forget to turn it off and go out you will lose power and the power will not return until the solar has had a chance to recharge the next day.
There are 2 portable fans inside the domes and a fan for outdoor use for hot days. To reduce the impact on hot days the domes have rooftop curtains that should remain closed along with the front window curtains to keep the tents cooler.
Guests have access to the entire 120 acre property. There is a gate for access to the paddocks beyond the dome fencing. The gate needs to be closed immediately after entering and exiting to prevent cows entering the dome area and causing damage or exiting onto the main road.
You can stroll along the road until you reach the bushland on the far end of the property. We do not recommend walking through long grass on the property without protective footwear as snakes are known to live in the hinterlands region.
Please be aware the driveway to the domes is not sealed. It is a gravel driveway.
In the rain it may be slippery. Parking at the top of the property is recommended for cars that are not suitable for gravel inclines.

Gob-smacking views of Nimbin Rocks. Photos can't convey the mystical presence you get in real life - it's like camping inside a poem.
Horse-shoe bordered by 2km of Goolmangar Creek - known platypus habitat.
Secluded - but only 5-min drive to Nimbin village, the alternative capital (pop 1,600) of Australia.
Sites are out of eye-shot from 'the others'. Limit of five dispersed sites across 30 acres.
You'll need to Arrive Before Dark to be directed. Really, you do.
Creek-sites suit experienced, self-contained campers (with 4wd) that like a bit of space. & know how to deal with their own shit. Literally.
Season Update: We're now in 4wd-only season. If you have 2wd, it may be possible, but have to check with me first.
Cons:
MUST check-in before dark.
Camping (especially creek sites) is weather-dependent - not accessible in extended periods of rain (by 4wd, or otherwise) - but who wants to camp in the rain anyway?
In 'dry-windows' , even 2wd is fine, but do check the forecast/correspond with me before booking. If it's looking grim, it's cool to cancel with 24-hrs notice.
It's a farm. Not a centralized campground offering full-amenities or caravan access.
As free-range campers 'on-that-farm, there are some free-range cows' (& chooks) . So you'll need to partially share the land with them. They're curious, but not aggressive.

A beautiful, spacious, tree-lined property that’s very well maintained.
It’s not too far from the coast, yet it feels like you’re miles away from everything — peaceful and secluded in the best way.
The owner came down to say g’day and was very friendly and welcoming, which made the stay even more enjoyable.
I’ll definitely be back and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet getaway where you’re not camping on top of other campers.

Camping at Oakey Ridge was a peaceful place for a quick weekend getaway.
The Host Greg was very accommodating and helpful. On arrival he took us on a guided tour around his property and let us choose a camping spot that would suit us for the night.
The property is just stunning, the photos don't do it justice, beautiful views that make it feel like you're inside a postcard.
The sites are spaced well apart from eachother and are a generous size.
I think I'll be returning to this place in the future.

We had a really enjoyable stay overall. The domes were peaceful, unique and a great place to switch off and spend quality time with the family. The setting is beautiful and Jane was a very kind and responsive host throughout our stay.
On our first night we did lose power, but Jane was extremely helpful and guided us thoroughly over the phone while her husband talked us through resetting the inverter. We were able to get the power back up and running pretty quickly, which we really appreciated. It showed great care and support from the hosts.
One small piece of feedback was around the fire pit area. When we arrived there was quite a bit of weed overgrowth around the space. We actually took it upon ourselves to clear it out to make the area cleaner and safer, especially after a brown snake passed through the area on our first night while we were sitting around the fire pit. Being in nature you expect wildlife, but keeping that area clear would definitely make it feel safer and more comfortable for guests.
That said, Jane handled the feedback with genuine care and professionalism and even offered a goodwill refund, which was a very thoughtful gesture and not expected at all. Her hospitality and communication were greatly appreciated.
Overall we had a lovely stay and would happily return again in the future. A great spot for families wanting a peaceful nature escape with their kids 🌿🔥

Rowlands Creek was lovely, nice & spacious sites away from other campers, the creek was lovely. I do feel like the house overlooks the sites though so not fully private. Minimal communication from host & no firewood available for the cute element heated baths so we had to do some hunting which didn’t end up heating the bath very well anyway. The creek was where we ended up anyway, swimming & washing which was lovely and free flowing. Uki had lovely coffee but that’s about it, definitely worth venturing further for nice beaches like Pottsville & Kingscliff, they were lovely and ideal.

Weekend Trip to The Meadow -Byron Hinterlands Domes
We had a great time glamping in this dome, despite the weather being pretty average.
The dome is very spacious, so we did not feel cramped or boxed in like we might have hiding out from the rain in a regular size glamping tent.
On the down side there was not even a rug inside, and the outside mat was drenched, so we had to use our own towels on the floor to dry our feet coming inside.
The rain does get in a bit, which is probably why there is there is just a bare concrete floor. The skylight is a cool feature but unfortunately you can barely see through it and the panoramic window is also made of plastic, so it does hinder the views a bit, maybe more in rainy weather.
Still there is plenty of space, (a lot more than our rooftop tent!) and you have it all to yourself, so we can't really complain.
