Kybeyan  Retreat

Pitch your tent or park your campertrailer in the native bushland with the pristine Numeralla River as your boundary fence.  This 3000 acre property is located close to Nimmitabel and not too far from Cooma.

Try your hand at trout fishing and enjoy endless tracks for bushwalking and observing the native wildlife.  Wander along the river banks just enjoying the serenity of the location and witness platypus feeding,  water dragons sunning themselves and the brown trout fly feeding and one of Australia's beautiful but lesser known native rodents, Rakali (intelligent semi aquatic water rat who's scientific name translates to golden -bellied water mouse). One of Australia's two aquatic mammals, the platypus being the other. 

This campsite suits self-contained campers who bring their own camping toilet/shower. IF NO CHEMICAL TOILET, DIG A HOLE AT LEAST 30CM DEEP .

There is access to a drinking water supply (mountain river water), or you can bring your own water. After heavy rain you may need to boil/filter for drinking.

You will need a 4WD to access the campsites closest to the river as there is a shallow gully crossing.  Camper trailer or off road pop up campers will be able to negoiate the tracks.   Good clearance necessary to pass over one gully crossing.

Dogs are welcome, however, we do run sheep in an adjoining paddock so they need to stay close to your camp.

Kids aged 16 and under camp for free. 

There is a dedicated campfire pit so you can stay warm on chilly evenings (please check to see if there is a seasonal fire ban in place). Fire wood can be provided - chainsaws are permitted but be mindful of structures that are animal habitats. 

Your family may enjoy taking a bushwalk that takes you around the 300 acre native bush paddock.   Climb up and get a birds eye view down into a gully of magnificent granite boulders above where the river disappears deep below.     Identify the unique sounds of the native birds and follow the tracks wildlife create.   We are centrally located - just 1.5 hours from the snowfields and from the best beaches of the NSW coastline.

There is a small general store, 2 takeaway cafes and a pub at Nimmitabel,  or you can get all supplies in Cooma 25 mins away.   Please note that we have very limited reception service for mobiles, so let's communicate via messages before you arrive in our area. 

I can provide a camping setup if you need extra bedding or you don't have any camping equipment or tent.

The Lodge at Tinneburra

eco-house. Perfect for a family weekend away or a get together with friends to enjoy the beauty of the surrounds. The drive in through neighbouring farms and national parks sets the tone for the escape from the suburban surrounds of the Canberra region.

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.

We have several sites for 100% self-contained campers, where you'll be spoilt with

spectacular

views of the Tinderry Mountains, access to undulating walking trails,

and the Namadgi National Park nearby. On clear nights,

the stars here are spellbinding.

We have many animals here too!

View our placid Scottish Galloway cattle (currently with calves!) pat our friendly poddy Cody and grab a photo opportunity.

We also have a beautiful horse Ali and her yearling colt diesel, just watch your fingers with him, gelded now but still thinks he’s a stallion.

 5 fat Dorper sheep look like running rugs running around. A real country experience!

An Angora goat and slashed tracks to access the beautiful 130 acres around the farm.

The small village of Michelago is 5km from our property, has the fuel servo and a terrific General Store, which serves great burgers and milkshakes plus much more. 20mins to the town of Bredbo with its own pub is great for counter lunches and dinners. 

The Town of Cooma, the gateway to the Snowy mountains is a 40 min drive south. 

Also if you want to go camping with friends and introduce them to the great outdoors and they don’t have the gear ask about our hire service of all things needed to have a great camp, some are listed but more is always available to hire, just send me a message.

As one of our many happy Hipcamp guests have said the photos don’t do the views justice, they are truely spectacular:)

Thats all folks, our paradise is your paradise to enjoy.

Millwood Cottage

Millwood is located 6kms from COOMA n.s.w. in the Snowy Mountains Region and is within easy reach to a number of great locations.  It is about 90 minutes from Canberra, just over an hour from Thredbo and Perisher and Mt Selwyn  snowfields and 1.5 hours from all the beautiful beaches that the South Coast has to offer.  A short drive of under 7 minutes takes you to the Murrumbidgee River on a sealed council road.  There is a flat grassed picnic area and council gas run b-bques under cover.
You may find internet and mobile not fully covered here.  I have a mobile that I use which works well depending where I stand.
Now has 3 adjacent camp sites available.  If not booked by others its a quiet spot amongst a bush setting.  also offers an RV site. You can relax around your firepit and enjoy watching the beautiful wildlife that come to visit the property including Kangaroos, Wombats and a variety of native birds.

The host runs a Day Spa from her home so you may like to treat yourself to some self care. Please check with host as to availability of Spa Treatments.

Why not check out our outdoor clawfoot bath during your stay. It's an amazing experience under the stars!

Tank water is available but please use sparingly.  The surrounding region is hugely popular for cyclists and bushwalkers with many great tracks available to explore. Mt Gladstone now has a popular track and Iread there are plans for a big upgrade.  There is a lookout at the top and can recommend Miss Heides Austrian Restaurent.  Amazing authentic home cooked bavarian meals in a rustic log cabin with a fireplace. The Murrumbidgee River is just about 4 klms away, where you can enjoy a picnic along it's banks and take a dip if it's warm enough.

We prefer campers who are fully self contained. Campers must take all waste and rubbish with them on departure. There is an outside basic toilet that is a compost type with sawdust and is cleaned regularly.

No pets please as we have a wildlife corridor here.  * I am considering quiet well behaved pets for campers but not in the bush hut.  Will verify soon*.

We have 3 remote sites and 3 dispersed sites and the property is six kilometers from Dalgety township which is situated on the “Snowy River” NSW. We are located 30 minutes drive south east of Jindabyne and 40 minutes drive south west of Cooma.

There is a flush toilet and fresh drinking water is available at our dispersed sites. Caravans can easily be filled up via garden hose and if you are staying on one of the remote sites this can be done easily prior to settling in.

We have a mowed loop track giving easy access from each site to stroll to the top of the hill, walk the dog or enjoy the 360 degree views. Take a picnic in the evening or just a glass of wine and watch the sunset from the top of the hill. After dark, relax and toast some marshmallows over the fire pit and discuss what you are going to do the next day.

The land was originally once a part of "Marranumbla Homestead". I have called it home since 1995 and now share it with my partner Phillip, our son, Danish the Whippet, Murphy the Malshi, Myonie the Moodle and Finley the cat. The house yard only had 2 trees when I bought it and the house built originally in 1980 still needed completing on the inside. I have worked hard to create an extensive garden in a sometimes harsh environment.

It's our peaceful part of the "Snowy Monaro", the property being 155 acres in total. A great place to wander and breath in the fresh air.

In Dalgety township you can have a meal and catch up with a local at the "Buckley's Crossing Hotel" or take a walk around the show ground, town and along the river reserve where you can have a swim and relax on the riverbank and view the historic Dalgety Bridge circa 1888 across the Snowy River. Then come back in the evening to look for platypus when they come out to play.

Visit the local 'Snowy Vineyard and Microbrewery' incorporating the 'Dalgety Brewing Company' situated approximately 10km north of the town on the Snowy River or have lunch at 'Tuscany in Dalgety' 2km to the west of town.

Take a trip to Jindabyne which is half an hours drive to the west, walk round the lake, visit the 'Jindabyne Brewery', great food, beer, cider and wine or the many other restaurants and cafes in town. Spend some time at the 'Snowy Region Visitor Centre' and the 'Gaden Trout Hatchery' or catch your own trout in the lake or at the 'Eucumbene Trout Farm'.

Travel beyond into the mountains and Kosciusko National Park to Thredbo, Perisher Valley and Charlottes Pass. Explore the many walks in the national park including the walk to the top of Mt Kosciusko.

Visit the 'Wild Brumby Distillery' enjoy some European fare and locally crafted Schnapps, Gin, Vodka or Gluhwein.

Take a day trip through Adaminaby to 'Yarrangobilly Caves and Thermal Pool' in the northern end of Kosciusko National Park, picnic, swim and tour the caves. 

Visit the "Snowy Hydro Discovery Centre and Café in Cooma and learn the history of the scheme. The Centre houses a comprehensive exhibition hall including an extensive photographic collection, models, hands-on exhibits and a one of a kind immersive theatre. You will find information about the Scheme such as engineering, the environment, the National Electricity Market, history, water management and power generation.

Make it your base camp while enjoying all that the winter season has to offer and lets not forget the skiing and snow boarding of course.

Well that's just a sample of some of the things you can do but if all that sounds like too much, just put your feet up and have a rest at your campsite!!

P.S. The annual Dalgety Show is held on the  first Sunday in March every year and did you know that Dalgety was one of the sites considered for our country's capital.

Telstra 4G coverage on the property, limited Optus coverage.
