Weekend Trip to Bundilla River Camp

An incredible spot run by a very friendly and accommodating team. Access is good and the river front sites are fantastic for caravans (we had powered site 2). Hosts are highly responsive. Thanks for a great few days.

Weekend Trip to Bundilla River Camp

We loved this farm stay. We booked site 1 which had power and it's a great spot right near where you walk down to the river. It was so tranquil. Well manicured. Cute swing set and had fun using the communal bikes. The pit toilets are very clean. We utilised the wood fire pizza oven the first night which was such a hit! The kids loved the farm tour, we got to see bunnies, goats, chickens and cows. Would definitely come back again in the warmer months the river would be awesome to swim in. You feel like you're in the middle of no-where (which you kinda are) but we went into port for the day and it's only half an hour drive. Highly recommend. Thanks so much guys!

Weekend Trip to Bark Hut Mill

We had an incredible long weekend at Bark Hut Mill. Got super lucky with beautiful sunny days and clear and crisp wintry nights and mornings. Kev was super lovely and dropped in to welcome us and have a yarn. Our group and two dogs had the best time, and we collectively decided we will have to be back for another visit this winter. Thanks so much for having us 🤎🌿🌅

Weekend Trip to Bundilla River Camp

Weekend Trip to Oasis of Hope

Beautifully maintained area and fabulous, pristine creek.

Weekend Trip to Bundilla River Camp

What an incredible place to bring the family! We stayed for three nights and were so glad we did. The kids loved visiting the animals and riding their bikes. The swings were also a big hit. The pit toilets were perfect for us since we don't have amenities in our van. It was easy to tow our van to the campsite. Thank you, Rick and Cheryl!

Weekend Trip to Bundilla River Camp

This is our second visit to Bundilla River camp and once again it did not disappoint. This time we visited with friends and enjoyed our time swimming in the river, walking the short trail and saying hello to the cows as they passed our camp each morning. Kids loved the swing and visit to feed the animals. The addition of the pit toilets was a welcome surprise that added to our comfort. We enjoyed our time here so much we have all decided to make it at least an annual event.

Weekend Trip to Oasis of Hope

Well maintained lawn area and clean amenities. Very nice creek to explore.

Weekend Trip to Bark Hut Mill

Bark Hit Mill farm is an amazing place to camp. Kev is a great bloke gave us good tips on walks on the property. It was awesome to explore the property and get to know the land. Awesome location not far from beaches. Excited for next time.

Weekend Trip to Oasis of Hope

Excellent campsite. Great amenities. Would gladly camp here again.

1 night at Bonville Camp Ground

Absolute gem of a spot. Beautiful scenery, we loved watching the sun rise over the trees from our van window. Plenty of room to talk the dogs for a walk. Will definitely stop in again :)

1 night at Bonville Camp Ground

Highly recommend Bonville Campground. I have now stayed here 4 times, this time for 3 nights. Such a peaceful, well maintained property so close to Coffs Harbour.

Weekend Trip to Bundilla River Camp

Bundilla River Camp was the best!! Highly recommend to anyone. We loved it and were lucky enough to have it all to ourselves as we went just after the floods. It was a little wet and muddy but that was perfect for our kids. We had fires each night, watched the stars, woke up to the beautiful cows in the morning, river swims, swings, bike ride's and gorgeous walks. It was so quiet and peaceful. Toilets were clean and it was so handy having a river water tap to use. Rick and Cheryl were great to talk too. We only booked an hour or so before we arrived and it all went smoothly and was easy. We can’t wait to come back!

1 night at Levenvale Farm in Bellingen

Levenvale farm is absolutely stunning! I arrived last minute and felt welcomed by the beautiful land. I wish I was able to stay another night and try something from the shop. The shower was amazing and really hot.

Weekend Trip to "Dodona"

It was a nice camping and Richard was a lovely host

Weekend Trip to Vallis Oakes

One of the nicest hipcamps we have stayed at!! We had the most peaceful night at Sammy’s property. Crystal clear waters and quiet bushland that was exactly the refresh we needed. It was a pleasure to meet Sammy and his family including their beautiful dog Banjo. It is clear that they take great pride in their slice of paradise and we were grateful to experience it for a night. Sammy was the perfect host and made sure to explain exactly how to access the property. Thank you again for being kind and understanding about our little pup Hank not being dog-social on our trip. We felt completely welcome and can’t wait to return!

Weekend Trip to Valley View Escape

We pulled up in our roof top tent, perfect large space, absolutely beautiful views even with the wet weather. We loved our stay, 100% recommended this beautiful place & would 100% stay again! Thank you!

1 night at Bonville Camp Ground

Myself, my partner & our two pups loved this site. It’s super spacious, each spot has its own fire pit, & the amenities are very clean. Other campers were very respectful & the farm itself is beautiful. Gregg is lovely & very accomodating. We highly recommend camping here!

1 night at Bonville Camp Ground

Easy to access of the highway, site was pretty. Great for a quick stop over.

1 night at Way Way Getaway

Retreat from Life

7 sites · RVs, Tents55 acres · Talarm, NSW

Only 15 mins drive from the town of Macksville, 45 minutes from Coffs Harbour, 45 minutes from Port Macquarie and 20 minutes or so (but who counts) from the famous Pub With no Beer (which does have beer). This property is extremely private with a number of camp sites that have you feeling like the rest of the world no longer exists. There are six dams and views to the coast (from the top of the hill). You get to share it with a couple of horses and a few cows but it's ok they don't like sleeping in tents or caravans. Sunsets, sunrises and night time star gazing. It's an ideal place to de-stress and reconnect with nature. Welcoming self - contained campers who bring there own amenities. There is access to drinking water but otherwise everything is BYO and take away all your rubbish please. You can choose to either be completely secluded and away from everyone. 4WD access or walk in with tents. Or you can set up closer to the entrance road and roadway (more suitable to caravans). There are lovely walks on the property itself or go for a casual stroll up the dirt road but watch out for the 3 or 4 cars every couple of hours or so. Views are amazing, air is incredible and the night sky is breathtaking. Campfires are possible but only in some months. The ideal place to get away from it all but close enough to Coffs Coast Tourist attractions, including amazing places to eat. Your pet is welcome to camp with you, but please do not let them stray onto neighbours' farms or chase stock. They run the risk of being baited or shot. There is stock on the property so please leave all gates as you find them. If they are open they stay open. If closed they stay closed.
