5. Byron Myocum Farm

(234)

40km from Chinderah · 1 site · Tent, RV · Myocum, NSW

Hi, an update: please note that due to roadworks in Mullumbimby, the Council is diverting southbound traffic out of that town along Myocum Rd, thus there will be increased traffic at commute times. Your campsite is on a grassy knoll of Myocum Farm with sweeping views of farmland and the Byron lighthouse in the distance. You will be the sole visitors and thus have all the space and amenities to yourself. Your onsite amenities include: a firepit with benches and table, bbq plates, free kindling, firewood available to buy, a hot private outdoor shower, your own flushing toilet, a tap and handsoap, a bucket and hose, bins for recycling and rubbish, a swing, and a small cubbyhut with board games and a bocce and cricket set. Please note our rates are very competitive and cover 3 visitors in our base rate. During your stay you can just kick back and relax overlooking the farm which produces beef cattle and fingerlimes, but with the convenient distance to towns and beaches, you can also use it as a base to very easily explore all the region has to offer: Byron Bay and Bangalow (15 mins), Brunswick Heads (10 mins), and Mullumbimby (6 mins), all offering great dining, local market, and retail experiences. the area has a plethora of activities to pursue: swimming, walking, fishing, great surfing, sea kayaking, ballooning, skydiving, horseriding, golf (eg renowned Ocean Shores golf club is 20 minutes away), and the wonderful rail trail for bikers or walkers can be accessed at Mooball, a picturesque 20 min drive away or try out the new mountain bike trail at the vey pretty township of Uki in the hinterland. Beautiful waterfalls are less than a half hour drive away. There are local businesses who can help you pursue these kinds of activities if you don't bring your own equipment.

An incredible location. The shower under the stars sold it for us! Amazing. Why stay in the hustle and bustle when you can go to sleep watching the lighthouse and wake up to kookaburras singing and cows mooing. Thank you so much Allan

We so enjoyed our 3 nights at the farm. Allan and Ngaire are very welcoming. This place is above and beyond what is expected at a Hipcamp. Hot shower with a view and immaculately clean toilet facilities, fire pits benches to enjoy the view. Well kept lawn. Views everywhere. We had heaps of space. We will be back for sure.

Weekend Trip to Byron Myocum Farm

Gorgeous spot, so peaceful and with incredible views. The toilet, outdoor shower and playroom are fantastic. My 4 year old spent most of her time in there, and the hosts even put out pictures for her to colour in which we so appreciated. All this plus the bonus swing, fire pits and benches. We are planning our return trip already, honestly couldn’t fault it. Highly recommend!

Site 1 was a lovely quiet spot beside the creek. Love that it is only one group per site to ensure you get to camp how you want to camp. In peace. We will be back for sure.

Beautiful property. Nicely spaced from other campsites. Easy to get to and well signed. Super friendly host. It would be nice to see a toilet/long drop here to save using our portable unit, but other than that no complaints. Would stay here again.

We just love that spot. It's our 2nd visit. The view to the easrern pasture with cows and calves playing, the morning sun and evening lighthouse rays. Allan and Nyhree are as kind as they come. And 20.muns away from Byron and the beach. Great spot.

Wonderful night stay! Despite being reasonably close to Allan’s house, it was so private and quiet. Love the swing, picnic table, and cubby house, but the selling point was the HOT shower under the stars! 🤩 Such a calming place to unwind overlooking the cow paddocks and mountains.
