Fana Beag is a tranquil country property 30km from Parkes NSW, with a cute farm stay cabin that offers the perfect antidote to life's hectic pace! We are a goat farm, with about 60 goats, and it's the perfect place to unwind and relax. Simply arrive and open the door to your little private cabin. All amenities you will need, including toilet, shower, and camp kitchen, are only 40 metres away. Listening to the gentle sounds of our chickens and goats is a wonderful way to wake up. You can say hello and walk amongst our friendly goats. Or go for walks without anyone around you. Have a drink on your private verandah, admiring the view of the popular Dish (Parkes Radio Telescope) from anywhere on the farm. There is a reverse cycle air conditioner in the van for your comfort. We are also 100 km from Dubbo Zoo - a great day trip!

Approximately 45 minutes from Orange, 4 hours from Sydney. The region between Molong and Parkes offers scenic views, bush walking, bush camping, picnic areas, mountain biking trails, and 4WD touring. To the northwest lies Goobang National Park that includes Caloma lookout, one of the high points in the Wanda Wandong sector of Goobang National Park. The area is a bird watchers' paradise - you can often spot birds of prey, such as wedge-tailed eagles, brown goshawks and brown falcons, soaring across the sky. Black cypress pines, grevilleas, lomandras and heath feature commonly on the landscape. There are many tall grass trees in this area too, some of which are believed to be hundreds of years old. This is a large property that is taking a break from sheep farming. Covered in gum trees and pines and lots of open space. The property has a creek with all year round water holes and dams. You can do almost anything you want. Hiking, fishing, swimming, camping and living the dream. There's emus (bush chooks), kangaroos (hopping dogs), platypus and no drop bears, meaning you can sit back, relax and go back to the way it was. Self sufficient campers only, leave no trace. You must bring your own camping toilet and shower. If booking under the Group listing, you will need to arrange you own portaloos, which I am happy to manage delivery/pick up of with the local hire company. It's 15 minutes to the pub in town if you're up for a coldie or a meal. ​Our farm is a work in progress.

In the early 1970’s Mr James, the owner of 'Biara', subdivided three 25 acre blocks across the road from the original homestead. The first block was sold to his nephew, the middle block was to be purchased by the Preston family and ‘The Gateway’ was purchased by a Mr Carveth. Unfortunately, the sale of the middle block fell through then, due to family illness, 'Biara' was sold and the family moved to Blackheath. After this move, and as thank you to his son, Mr James transferred the title of the middle of the three subdivided blocks to his only son, William. Back in the late 1960’s, early 1970’s, the area was vastly different than it is today. Travelling to school entailed a car trip to Hargraves then bus to Mudgee which would have been a 2 hour round trip! The area was far more isolated as there was no power and entailed an overland phone line, which had to be regularly repaired if residents wanted to be able to communicate with the outside world. The site allows mainly for camping and relaxing although there are numerous dirt roads to explore, Mudgee wineries close by and Burrendong Dam not far away (accessible via Hill End Road near Erudgere). Hargraves is also known for it's alluvial gold deposits and fossickers still go there regularly to check out Louisa Creek. There is 15km's of dirt road which needs to be traveled to reach the property. Dependent on weather, and if it has been graded recently, this road can be in varying states of repair. In heavy rain it may be difficult to get 2WD access via the public road due to the clay content in the road . Kangaroo, wallaby, owl species, kookaburra, echidna, snakes, various lizards, including shinglebacks, are often seen on these roads and the property.

We loved the serenity and privacy. The dogs had freedom to splash in the dam and roll around in the lush green grass. The fire pit is amazing! Access is 4WD only and was an easy drive to the campsite with our camper. Cattle in the paddocks nearby are beautiful to watch and hear. We will definitely be back! Thanks farmer Sam & Dean for sharing your beautiful property 🙂

The private, well maintained & spacious site is enhanced by a peaceful outlook to the dam & rolling hills. The fire pit & wood provisions were next level! Proximity to Mudgee is very convenient. While there are steep sections, the road is well formed and we were easily able to access the site with our 18’6” semi-off-road caravan. Sam & Dean are very helpful & friendly hosts.

Camping at Hillsdale farm Mudgee is the best of both styles of camping. Arriving at our beautiful site, which was prepared, cleaned cut grass with wood for the fire place, we felt like we were a million miles from anywhere. Sam and Dean were there if we ever wanted anything but we didn't see them except to say 'G'day' at arrival and "see ya next time' on departure. We were looking for a week of reading and isolation. However, being so close to Mudgee and amidst all the wineries, we found ourselves going out each day discovering Mudgee and some new wines to take back to camp. It was easy enough to get in and out of the property - easy 4wd, which made discovering the beauty of Mudgee easy. We will be back. Thanks Sam and Dean

Or simply relax with a quiet cuppa on one of the many garden chairs and watch the world go by. The property is very child-friendly and pets are welcome, as long as they’re on a lead (we have four corgis who love to run around when let out!). We’re only 15 km from Siding Spring Observatory and about 25 km from Warrumbungle National Park. Guests are welcome to unhitch their vans and leave them here while exploring the area. The property is just 4 minutes from the centre of Coonabarabran. Please note: sites are self-service with no amenities provided. Fresh water is available for drinking and for filling caravan reservoirs.

Wendouree Creek Paddock, situated near Parkes in New South Wales, is a vibrant regeneration area perfect for those seeking a true off-grid camping experience. This tranquil site invites nature enthusiasts to immerse themselves in the wonders of the outdoors, but it's important to note that it is specifically designed for self-sufficient campers who bring their own toilets and showers. The paddock does not provide any facilities, making it essential for visitors to come prepared with their own off-grid amenities. As you explore the landscape, you'll find various native flora and fauna thriving in their natural habitat. The gentle sounds of the creek and the rustling leaves create a soothing backdrop, perfect for relaxation and reflection. Unique artistic installations, such as creatively designed bird feeders made from recycled materials, add a whimsical touch to the environment while supporting local wildlife. Visitors are encouraged to adhere to a "leave as you found it" ethos, ensuring that Wendouree Creek Paddock remains pristine for future generations to enjoy. This serene setting offers a unique opportunity to reconnect with nature and foster a deeper appreciation for environmental conservation.

Unwind in the seclusion of this private and safe bush camping site on the banks of the Wambuul-Macquarie River in the remote Killongbutta valley located half-way between Bathurst and Orange. It’s a place where time stands still. Enabling you to reconnect with nature as you slow down and embrace the sounds of the river, wildlife and sheoaks when they ‘whisper secrets to the wind’. Many stories and dreamings have come from this place which guarantees to inspire your imagination as an artist, writer, poet or musician. You have access to 100 acres of bushland or enjoy a walk along Killongbutta Road which winds its way through spectacular Wiradjuri country where ancient stone quarries, corroboree sites and a warrior’s grave have been found. Platypus, water dragons and river rats all live in the river. Be prepared to share the site with wombats who have burrowed their homes into the banks. Road access to site is suitable for 2WD in dry weather. It is a short, steep drop with two tight corners not suitable for large caravans and RVs. The site has a newly constructed long drop toilet, pets are allowed and bring your own firewood to ensure you have enough as it's becoming scarce around the site. Please take all rubbish with you. Please note: Kids under 12 are free to support young families wanting to experience the bush. Please still add them to the booking as they will not be charged. What is not allowed: shooters and trappers, illegal fishing, motor bikes, quad bikes and other noisy machines! Killongbutta Road runs off Freemantle Road and is 36 kms from Bathurst. It is 40 kilometres from Orange through Gowan Road that joins Lower Lewis Ponds Road. For your information, On the Stone is a podcast and publishing studio that produces a quarterly magazine for the Freemantle Road community. We have local history to share and can always provide information about our services. We look forward to providing exclusive access to our river site for campers who will appreciate and respect this place which is our home. Thank you to all the campers who have stayed at our retreat. You have all been wonderful, caring for our property and writing great reviews. The drop loo is taking on its own character with your messages and artworks.
