1 night at Black Gate Distillery

Genise was very responsive and helpful in the booking and lead up to our stay at the Black Gate Distillery, and Brian was there to help us out on arrival. The amenities were in great condition, and the distillery and surrounds were very interesting to camp amongst. We enjoyed having a campfire, and enjoyed our stay in general. Thank you.

1 night at Cobbora Station

Beautiful camping spot. We stayed at site 1. So peaceful and rejuvenating for the soul. The cows at kangaroos in the neighbouring paddock were a wonderful addition.

Weekend Trip to Mount Terrace

We stayed at Monkey Rock the first night. This site has a shelter and a toilet, which helped a lot because we arrived very late in the dark that night. We switched to Black wattle the next day. It is slightly bigger and the view of landscape is more open than Monkey Rock. We enjoyed both campsites and saw many wildlife throughout the stay. Kangaroos hoping around, Giant Wood Moth (the heaviest moth in the world) visiting us every night, many birds, goats and cattle on the farm. James and his family are super friendly and helpful too!

3 nights at Maalaabidi Naturist Farm Stay

My husband and I stayed at Dingo den cabin at Maalabidi for 3 nights and I could tell this was one of the most beautiful experience we had in a long time. We definitely didn't feel like leaving this beautiful place and warm company of Graham and Janice who made this extremely special for us . We had a perfect time - Stunning vistas, in the middle of a little forest, very close to town, completely dark surroundings which makes it perfect to enjoy the gorgeous night sky, waking up to gorgeous sunrise, having open hot shower right under the milky way , native trees and lot of wildlife around, sitting by the campfire at under the stunning star studded sky and sharing stories with Graham - was an experience we would never forget. The cabin itself was super comfy with a nice kitchenette and fridge and a quite a well stocked kitchen just few steps away in the big shed. Don't miss the coffee at Grahams bar! We felt extremely privileged to listen to the super talented Graham beautifully play the didgeridoo and violin for us. Hard to come across someone so beautiful and creative like him - such a great musician ( he has got a a band), a pilot, with depth of knowledge about Aboriginal culture, practices, love for nature and protecting the environment...someone so full of wisdom. One should definitely spend some time and slowly experience this place. During the day, we did hikes at Warrumbungles, visited Piliga forest, Siding spring observatory and explored the lovely Coonabaraban town.

1 night at Mount Terrace

Fantastic location and great hosts. They were very helpful in leading us to the remote camp location and provided lines and Easter eggs for the kids. Would definitely go back!

2 nights at Mount Terrace

We had such a wonderful time staying here. The property is breathtakingly beautiful and you feel so secluded in your camp-site. It was more than we could have hoped for. So much wildlife and glowing mountains/ cliffs. Stuart was so lovely and helpful, and the cute energetic dogs were a big plus! We can't wait to come back with friends in tow next time. Thanks again for having us!

3 nights at Mount Terrace

Very secluded and visually stunning campsite on the SW border of the national park. Several of the key landmarks of the Warrumbungles can be seen from the campsite. Travel time to the visitor centre is about 40mins, the campsite is about 15mins drive from the front gate. Plenty of wild goats, kangaroos and wallabies to keep you company, but it is perfectly secluded. Host was excellent to communicate with.

2 nights at Mount Terrace

James is a great host. Brilliant property with amazing views. Definitely worth going back to

2 nights at Mount Terrace

We loved our stay at the Picnic Ground campsite. Such a friendly welcome and the site is spectacularly beautiful. The view of rhe Warrumbungles and the stars at night have to be seen to be believed. Glad we took the option of the firewood bundle.

1 night at Black Gate Distillery

We had a fantastic stay. It was great to find the amenities clean, tidy and with hot water. The site was flat and we had a decent camp fire pit right next to where we set up. We pre- booked into a distillery tour and spent our time with Genise, who was the perfect host. We learnt the ins and outs of the distillery, how they came to be in the industry and had a fabulous time tasting the excellent quality whisky and rum. Included was a platter with the most delicious locally produced cheese. Definitely worth a visit. One tip is camp towards the rear of the site as there can be a bit of road noise in the morning. But that did not bother us at all.

4 nights at Mount Terrace

Great location and once set up-about 35min drive to Warrumbungle’s. Towed in a 8.4M off road caravan-dusty road in and tight through some gates but no dramas. Host James was great!

1 night at Cobbora Station

Great communication from the host and easy to find. Large, open space site with cute(?) well presented drop toilet. Sites 1,2 (near toilet) with fire pits, in one quarter next to each other - 3,4 and 5 in the other (cut) grassy corners and site 6 on its own by a small dam. We stayed after visiting Dubbo zoo and had a great night under the shooting stars. Recommend.

Weekend Trip to Breelong Valley

Gorgeous sunrises over the paddocks, well maintained tracks and camping right on the edge of the river with easy access down. Plenty of firewood around that didn't need a chainsaw, but lots of fallen trees if you had one. The location and ease of getting into Gilgandra was fantastic.

Weekend Trip to Mount Terrace

Beautiful remote country location with perfect sky views

The camping space was awesome. Woke up to sheep each morning. The eggs are delicious!

Lovely spot with river access to the Castlereagh. The river was very low but perfect for kids to splash and relax in.

1 night at Warrumbungles Mtn Motel Campground

Nice quiet campground with rubbish bins provided. Bush surroundings.

Weekend Trip to Black Gate Distillery

I had the best experience on this property! Location was great, facilities were immaculate and the added bonus of having the distillery on site to participate in a tasting was a fun addition to our trip! Genise & Brian thanks so much for having us, it was such a wonderful experience and your hospitality was spectacular!
