Our campsites are "Beyond the Bridge" and "Old Flat Camp". Both are on cattle paddocks and have private access to Hydes Creek. Hydes Creek is a murky sandy base creek. There's lots of logs so its not recommend to jump in, but it's beautiful to cool off in the creek on a hot day.
Both campsites have access to our compost toilet, and camping shower (gas hot water).
If you prefer a bit more comfort or don't have your own camping gear, you can escape the hustle and enjoy being perched up on one of the highest points on the farm (with incredible views), in our Farm Huts. Both mHuts are furnished with beds and linen with limited power. Both gave private ensuite with compost toilet, gas hot water shower and basic kitchen. Book these Huts via our farm website.
At all our campsites, we welcome you to have a small fire, and cook up a BBQ. Our Farm Shop is open 24/7 to self serve and grab some organic beef sausages or steaks. Reach out if you want us to have them defrosted for your arrival.

At The Good Life, we’re big on personal space. Every campsite is large, private and genuinely secluded, giving you the feeling you’re a long way from everyone and everything. Your own patch of paradise. No caravan awnings poking you in the eye, no surprise drop-ins, and no listening to your neighbour’s snoring, generator or life story. Bliss.
Forget your phone alarm. Your morning wake-up call is the local kookaburra choir having a proper laugh at life. This is a true back-to-nature escape for anyone needing to pull up a stump, slow right down and properly unplug. If bird watching, stargazing or simply doing sweet nothing is your idea of a good time, you’ll fit right in.
Dogs are very welcome. Keep them on a lead while you’re wandering the property, then let them be their goofy, happy selves back at camp. Campfires are practically mandatory. Every site has its own fire pit, and if you burn through your firewood faster than a pollie breaks a promise, we can sort you out with more for a small fee.
Now for a quick reality check. We’re not the Hilton. In fact, we don’t provide any amenities at all. No toilets, no showers, no bins. Think of The Good Life as a safe, private slice of bush that feels like the middle of nowhere, because it pretty much is. You’ll need to be fully self-contained and take everything you bring in back out with you. Leave only footprints and good memories.
What you do with your time is entirely up to you. Park yourself in a camp chair with a book, wander the farm, or lace up your boots and explore around 70 acres of bush tracks. When night falls, the stars put on a serious show and the silence is so complete you can actually hear yourself think.
There’s no phone service and no Wi-Fi. Consider it a feature, not a bug. It’s the perfect excuse to ignore your emails.
If you feel like venturing out, the Orara Valley and Coffs Coast offer stunning rainforests, beaches, waterfalls and swimming holes, all within a 30-minute drive.

Our campsites are "Beyond the Bridge" and "Old Flat Camp". Both are on cattle paddocks and have private access to Hydes Creek. Hydes Creek is a murky sandy base creek. There's lots of logs so its not recommend to jump in, but it's beautiful to cool off in the creek on a hot day.
Both campsites have access to our compost toilet, and camping shower (gas hot water).
If you prefer a bit more comfort or don't have your own camping gear, you can escape the hustle and enjoy being perched up on one of the highest points on the farm (with incredible views), in our Farm Huts. Both mHuts are furnished with beds and linen with limited power. Both gave private ensuite with compost toilet, gas hot water shower and basic kitchen. Book these Huts via our farm website.
At all our campsites, we welcome you to have a small fire, and cook up a BBQ. Our Farm Shop is open 24/7 to self serve and grab some organic beef sausages or steaks. Reach out if you want us to have them defrosted for your arrival.
All of our listings offer spectacular sunrises, sunsets over the mountains and wanderings through lush rainforest. Experience all the adventures of Levenvale Farm and reconnect with nature.

At The Good Life, we’re big on personal space. Every campsite is large, private and genuinely secluded, giving you the feeling you’re a long way from everyone and everything. Your own patch of paradise. No caravan awnings poking you in the eye, no surprise drop-ins, and no listening to your neighbour’s snoring, generator or life story. Bliss.
Forget your phone alarm. Your morning wake-up call is the local kookaburra choir having a proper laugh at life. This is a true back-to-nature escape for anyone needing to pull up a stump, slow right down and properly unplug. If bird watching, stargazing or simply doing sweet nothing is your idea of a good time, you’ll fit right in.
Dogs are very welcome. Keep them on a lead while you’re wandering the property, then let them be their goofy, happy selves back at camp. Campfires are practically mandatory. Every site has its own fire pit, and if you burn through your firewood faster than a pollie breaks a promise, we can sort you out with more for a small fee.
Now for a quick reality check. We’re not the Hilton. In fact, we don’t provide any amenities at all. No toilets, no showers, no bins. Think of The Good Life as a safe, private slice of bush that feels like the middle of nowhere, because it pretty much is. You’ll need to be fully self-contained and take everything you bring in back out with you. Leave only footprints and good memories.
What you do with your time is entirely up to you. Park yourself in a camp chair with a book, wander the farm, or lace up your boots and explore around 70 acres of bush tracks. When night falls, the stars put on a serious show and the silence is so complete you can actually hear yourself think.
There’s no phone service and no Wi-Fi. Consider it a feature, not a bug. It’s the perfect excuse to ignore your emails.
If you feel like venturing out, the Orara Valley and Coffs Coast offer stunning rainforests, beaches, waterfalls and swimming holes, all within a 30-minute drive.

Absolute gem of a spot. It's exclusive and private exactly as advertised. We appreciated it being freshly mowed. Nick offered firewood if needed. Look for the turtles and water dragons in the river. We enjoyed it so much we extended our stay.

We had such a wonderful stay at Kate’s farm campsite. Kate was an absolutely amazing host, so warm, welcoming and thoughtful. She kindly gave us fresh free range eggs and some lovely garlic, which was such a special touch and really added to the whole farm experience.
The camping spot itself was beautiful, peaceful and perfectly located. It felt secluded and relaxing, yet it was an ideal distance from the shops and the beach, making it easy to explore while still enjoying the quiet surroundings. Evenings were especially magical, with gorgeous views overlooking the dam.
One of the highlights for us was the lovely shed by the water. Sitting there overlooking the dam and spotting turtles was such a memorable experience. It was the perfect place to unwind after a day out.
Kate also recommended some fantastic nearby spots, which kept us busy during our three night stay and every single one was amazing. Communication was excellent throughout and we felt completely looked after from start to finish.
We would absolutely camp here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway.

We loved staying here, everything was spot on, friendly, relaxing, able to take our dogs and have a camp fire, next to a beautiful creek with a swimming hole.

Great location, our site was directly on the river with excellent views. Facilities are clean, modern and private. It was extremely busy so your neighbours are very close, but that’s the only downside we experienced. Will definitely stay again if we come back through Bellingen.

Bonville camp grounds are very well thought out for comfort and ease. There are general waste bins provided, a waterless, long drop composting toilet, with water and soap provided for ease. The many campfire pits made it easy to pick a spot to setup for the night, and the well thought out cage of firewood at additional cost was so handy. It was close to the highway, but far enough away to be quiet and relaxing. We thoroughly enjoyed our overnight stay and highly recommend it to anyone for and affordable well thought out experience.

Oasis of Hope is a great little site up the rain forest above Coffs Harbour and was a treat to find. Excellent, very clean shower and toilet facilities and a large communal BBQ area. I was concerned about the 10 volt power supply but Lars was very quick to provide me with an adaptor. A very peaceful spot so I slept soundly! If you want to stay off grid in fabulous surroundings, this is the place.

This is by far my favourite Hipcamp I've ever stayed at! The beautiful blue water was so refreshing to swim in, and the pristine water made for a beautiful backdrop when using the bathtub. On top of this, the hosts are the most wonderful people in the world.

Loved this site, rural plenty of room.
Is a little road noise, if you camped up the back site you most likely wouldn’t hear it. Close enough to Coffs Harbour without the bustle. Already recommended to family. We will go back!

Another awesome stay. We love this property and our recently added family member, a 9 year old border collie rescue, loved it too. It's an absolute gem.

We’ve travelled across Australia and stayed in many different camps, but this one takes the cake! From the beautiful blue water to the wildlife and the stargazing, everything was incredible. We felt like two kids again jumping in the water all day, playing on the floatie and swinging on the swing. There’s even SUPs and canoes to use! The bathtub upgrade is definitely worth it, who can say that they’ve watched wild turtles swimming in the water below while having a bath? And to top it all off, Laura and Doug were exceptional hosts - you can tell they really care about the beautiful property and they make sure everyone’s visits are perfect!
10/10, can’t wait to come back!
