Welcome to Ridgeline Camping
Escape to 106 acres of elevated countryside with sweeping coastal and hinterland views. Just minutes off the Pacific Highway, Ridgeline is the perfect stopover without the detour — ideal for large caravans, motorhomes and touring setups, and equally suited to 4WD adventurers, rooftop campers and tents seeking space and privacy.
Wake to sunrises with kangaroos or cattle grazing nearby, and end your day with golden sunsets and star-filled skies.
Ridgeline is a genuine working cattle farm offering rolling grazing country, pockets of native bushland and the relaxed rhythm of rural life. Explore grassy hills and natural bush corridors home to native birds and wildlife. Whether you prefer an open site or a more private pocket, there’s room to spread out and enjoy the property your way.
You may notice livestock nearby and the occasional cow pat underfoot. During drier seasons, paddocks may not always be perfectly manicured — our cattle are our priority. What you’ll experience is authentic country Australia: space, simplicity and fresh air.
Feeling adventurous? Walk “Big Hill” for incredible 360° views at sunrise or sunset.

We allow campfires when it is safe. ALL fires must be contained in a fire pit. Absolutely no fires are to be lit on the open grass.
WE have fire pits for hire and bagged firewood is available for purchase on site .. all fire pits brought onto the property for use by guests will be subject to the discretion of the property owners. All fires and fire pits must be "OK'd" with the property owners prior to lighting, what we're looking for is clearance from the ground to the base of the fire pit .. the greater distance the better. Fires can only be lit in accordance with NSW Rural Fire Services fire restrictions or total fire bans.
We've had multiple patches of our buffalo lawn scorched to beyond charcoal by careless guests .. you must ask the hosts / property owners before lighting any fires .. unnecessary burnt patches of lawn may result in you and your guests leaving!!
We ask you to please note:
** UNFORTUNATELY WE DO NOT TAKE ANY CARAVANS .. HYBRID CARAVANS .. MOTOR HOMES .. RV'S .. FIFTH WHEELER's .. BUSES INCLUDING MERCEDES SPRINTERS of any size .. mainly the footprint of these types of vehicles is far too great .. once again we're only a grassy paddock not a caravan park.
Standard size camper trailers and camper-vans, roof top tents are all completely fine.
If your bus is longer than 4 meters in length, over 2 meters in height and/ or width with a tare weight of 3 tonne or over SORRY BUT IT IS A NO!!
If your camper trailer is wider than 2.5 meters or longer than 4.5 metres in length inclusive of the drawbar .. SORRY BUT ITS A NO!!
If you have a Jayco of any description .. regardless of length / width OR what the "registration papers say" .. SORRY BUT IT IS STILL A NO!!
- If you have solar panels to charge you might have to chase the sun a little, as there are plenty of shaded areas which is perfect come summer.
We do not allow the use of "Slackline or Tightropes" strung between our trees, it causes them to be ringbarked after a prolonged use .. meaning they die in the long run .. rope clotheslines and hamocks perfectly ok on the palms, sheoaks and paperbarks!!
- Dogs are permitted here however they must be friendly off leash and must NOT chase my pets which include horses, goats , dogs and our pet chooks.
Please pick up after your pooch .. as a courtesy to other guests and also to us, it doesn't happen in a caravan park .. please do the right thing here!!

Welcome to Ridgeline Camping
Escape to 106 acres of elevated countryside with sweeping coastal and hinterland views. Just minutes off the Pacific Highway, Ridgeline is the perfect stopover without the detour — ideal for large caravans, motorhomes and touring setups, and equally suited to 4WD adventurers, rooftop campers and tents seeking space and privacy.
Wake to sunrises with kangaroos or cattle grazing nearby, and end your day with golden sunsets and star-filled skies.
Ridgeline is a genuine working cattle farm offering rolling grazing country, pockets of native bushland and the relaxed rhythm of rural life. Explore grassy hills and natural bush corridors home to native birds and wildlife. Whether you prefer an open site or a more private pocket, there’s room to spread out and enjoy the property your way.
You may notice livestock nearby and the occasional cow pat underfoot. During drier seasons, paddocks may not always be perfectly manicured — our cattle are our priority. What you’ll experience is authentic country Australia: space, simplicity and fresh air.
Feeling adventurous? Walk “Big Hill” for incredible 360° views at sunrise or sunset.

WE have fire pits for hire and bagged firewood is available for purchase on site .. all fire pits brought onto the property for use by guests will be subject to the discretion of the property owners. All fires and fire pits must be "OK'd" with the property owners prior to lighting, what we're looking for is clearance from the ground to the base of the fire pit .. the greater distance the better. Fires can only be lit in accordance with NSW Rural Fire Services fire restrictions or total fire bans.
We've had multiple patches of our buffalo lawn scorched to beyond charcoal by careless guests .. you must ask the hosts / property owners before lighting any fires .. unnecessary burnt patches of lawn may result in you and your guests leaving!!
We ask you to please note:
** UNFORTUNATELY WE DO NOT TAKE ANY CARAVANS .. HYBRID CARAVANS .. MOTOR HOMES .. RV'S .. FIFTH WHEELER's .. BUSES INCLUDING MERCEDES SPRINTERS of any size .. mainly the footprint of these types of vehicles is far too great .. once again we're only a grassy paddock not a caravan park.
Standard size camper trailers and camper-vans, roof top tents are all completely fine.
If your bus is longer than 4 meters in length, over 2 meters in height and/ or width with a tare weight of 3 tonne or over SORRY BUT IT IS A NO!!
If your camper trailer is wider than 2.5 meters or longer than 4.5 metres in length inclusive of the drawbar .. SORRY BUT ITS A NO!!
If you have a Jayco of any description .. regardless of length / width OR what the "registration papers say" .. SORRY BUT IT IS STILL A NO!!
- If you have solar panels to charge you might have to chase the sun a little, as there are plenty of shaded areas which is perfect come summer.
We do not allow the use of "Slackline or Tightropes" strung between our trees, it causes them to be ringbarked after a prolonged use .. meaning they die in the long run .. rope clotheslines and hamocks perfectly ok on the palms, sheoaks and paperbarks!!
- Dogs are permitted here however they must be friendly off leash and must NOT chase my pets which include horses, goats , dogs and our pet chooks.
Please pick up after your pooch .. as a courtesy to other guests and also to us, it doesn't happen in a caravan park .. please do the right thing here!!

We loved this camp site. The plots have been well thought out and well spaced out so it has a very relaxed feel. It's such a beautiful place - grass is really well kept (hard to believe it was end of the summer!) and you look out onto a clean edge of the national park with beautiful white gum trees. I loved camping next to the lotus pond. Trevor is a great host and enjoyed introducing us to his very well-behaved dogs ! All in all, we highly recommend this place !

What a beautiful property, quiet and peaceful. Exactly what we needed. Trevor was super accommodating and the instructions for getting there are really clear. We got to say hi to the horses and whippets and the stars at night were just incredible. Plenty of space between campers so very little noise, and being able to have a campfire was great. A short drive out to Seal Rocks, we will definitely be back!
