We can 100% say this is a truly beautiful place to camp, waist deep water in some spots, perfect for younger children to swim in. Very peaceful, and Louise the host meet us at the entry point and took us down to camping area. We will definitely return.

The Grove was a beautiful and well situated campsite for a trip with my partner and our dog. The trees were shady (essential for hot weekend) and there were many birds, so the feel was very natural although you camp close to the working farm facilities. The owners and caretakers are around, friendly and not intrusive.
The shower and toilet are a convenient short walk from camp & kept clean. A daily shower was blissful in the heat. We had plenty of firewood to cook with & my partner loved chopping the big logs provided.
The resident dog Simba loves to come and say hi. We enjoyed this mostly, and he played well with our dog. We had to put in a bigger boundary with him when he started eating my dog’s food, & was persistent in asking for games when we were relaxing. He did listen to commands when we became firmer & spent a bit less time with us.
There are only two campsites and this suited us as we were looking for privacy and connection while we were away from our busy lives. One night a group came to camp right next to us in a spot we hadn’t seen as designated for camping. This felt less peaceful and private. I would suggest if you are after privacy, to confirm what spaces will be used.
Overall a really wonderful experience & my dog was relaxed and often off leash. Rod gave information on local swimming holes, which are a short drive away & beautiful. The location is within 30/45mins to towns for experiences and supplies. We had an excellent stay & totally recommend.

We loved camping here, we had the Grove camp-site and it was just perfect. Nice area for a camp fire and some trees for a bit of shelter. Beautiful and quiet, with just the sounds of birds and the occasional visit from Simba the resident dog. Desley and Rod were very friendly and welcoming and we look forward to staying here again.

Truely magical time was had at Desley’s land. We had the whole place to ourselves. Such a lovely spot to stay, we stayed and the campsite under the trees. My kids roasted marshmallows on the fire for the first time. We took a trip down the road and swam in the creek, the water was crystal clear. It was a lovely way to get back to nature. The caretaker Wendy was beautifully kind and generous with her knowledge. Would love to return in the future.
