Dark Sky Eco Resort

We are located near Coonabarabran, not far from the Siding Springs Observatory in the Warrumbungles National Park.

Welcome to our fully off-grid luxury resort. Living our Aussie dream of escaping the city and building an off-grid oasis, we have made Coonabarabran and the Warrumbungle region our home since 2017 and completely fallen in love with the community, surrounds and freedom of lifestyle we have created for ourselves. So much so, that we have made it our mission to support the community and share the beauty of what we have created with others.

Inspired by the magnificent region we have put careful thought into every detail, to create a truly unique experience that complements the native landscape.

With our genuine passion for luxurious sustainable accommodation, you can indulge in a unique getaway catered to your individual needs and preferences. 

For a memorable experience like no other, get in touch and we look forward to welcoming you to your private lodge at Dark Sky Eco Resort.

Barkala farmstay

Barkala Farmstay is a self-sustaining farm located off the grid, supplying our own water and solar electricity. The Farm is a grazing property situated on 13,000 acres surrounded by the tranquil Pilliga Forest. Only access is a 10km dirt road of the Newell Highway, north of Coonabarabran (follow directions below).

As well as farm animals, the farm hosts a thriving community of birds and well- designed bush tracks where you can discover local wildlife, plants, Aboriginal artifacts, great lookouts, sandstone cliffs and caves all in the midst of the Pilliga Forrest. 

Barkala Farmstay is also home to Pilliga Pottery and the Blue Wren Bush Cafe (closed Wednesdays), offering pottery demonstrations and workshops, traditional European inspired fresh foods with ingredients from our organic green house and homemade Gelato.

The property offers two camp sites, Goanna and Kellies Campground, which are freely available to anyone who books a camping stay with us. There are no allocated camping spots in either campground, thus it is first come, first serve. We offer large camping spots with no campground boundaries hence there is space for vehicles of any size. Both camping sites offer compost toilets and showers (although we encourage short showers due to our off-grid, self-sustaining farm). You are welcome to stop by the reception upon check-in to hear more about our campgrounds and we can help you find the perfect camp spot and tell you more about what we have to offer. 

Campers are welcome to enjoy feeding of our farm animals, our saltwater pool and campfires. Firewood can be collected on the property by yourself, or you can visit the reception to buy firewood. 

There is no phone reception close to any buildings but free limited Wi-Fi in the cafe area.

Warrumbungles Mtn Motel Campground

Set on 25 acres in a quiet and peaceful valley bounded on three sides by the Castlereagh River 8 kms west of Coonabarabran on the road to the Warrumbungle National Park. 
This is a campground suitable for self contained caravans, camper trailers and tents - limited amenities and power. 
Great star gazing location as well as numerous bush walking and bird watching locations.

Sashaven Park

We're located out beyond the Black Stump.

Our farm is set on a 100 acre property with 40% cleared and 60% bush.You can choose to camp in the bush or cleared area. There are trees you can camp under for shade during the warmer months. 

This campsite suits self-contained campers who bring their own camping toilet/shower and water supply.

Campfires are permitted.

The town of Coonabarabran is a 40 min drive from the campsite, and just beyond the township is the Warrumbungle National Park where you can go star gazing. Mudgee is a 1.5 hr drive away.

Allandale

We are located east of Coonabarabran with approximately 1600+ acres of hilly bush, mostly untouched for the past 50 years. Old logging trails throughout leading to peaks for views east and west as far as the eye can see. 

Night fall provides star gazing below some of the cleanest air in Australia. Planes, satellites and if you squint hard enough you might see something else. Watch the Starlink trail, wish upon a shooting star.

Pull your caravan out the back or park your motorhomes up the front, pitch a tent almost anywhere. 

Set up a camp fire and sit in the perfect silence that surrounds you. Bush walk or mountain bike around and experience kangaroos and an emu unfazed by human interaction! Discover Spa Corner, and if you are lucky enough to come across me, ask me how it came to be there. Jump in, bust out the bubbles, and post a pic to Instagram. ​

​You will need to be self-contained with own camping toilet and drinking water. There is access to a shower and rubbish facilities.

This is big sky country. The skies are crystal clear and sun rises and sunsets are breath taking. So far my favourite spot on earth is out here. Come and experience it with us, hopefully you will enjoy it as much as we do.

​4WDs are recommended to access the property, and there is limited access for motorhomes and 2WD (weight restrictions on motorhomes apply). If you're unsure about your camping vehicle please message before booking.
​
Pets are welcome, and off leash by negotiation.
