Come and enjoy the serenity at Kurrajong living. We are on 64 acres of sloping country in the Liverpool plains shire and 40 min from the capital of country music Tamworth. We are offering sites that are all self-sufficient and range from motorhome accessible to 4WD accessible and further away from the homestead. Sleeping under the stars, back to nature, and back to basics. We do have stock grazing in the same area and some are friendly whereas others are shy, we do ask to respect them and considering they are part of the experience😉. Pets as in dogs are only permitted after discussing it directly with us, and they would need to be kept contained as in tied up. There are Roos, native animals, and other livestock on neighbouring properties and we respect the natural instincts of dogs. You will be shown to your campsite and have free access to come and go of course. You are welcome to spend time at the main house and there is phone reception across the property. We can also provide fresh eggs from our chickens! We are offering an experience of staying in nature and back to basics in a peaceful environment away from the hustle and grind. And close enough to explore the surrounding towns of Wallabadah and Quirindi or even the capital of county music Tamworth. We look forward to welcoming you here at Kurrajong living 🌸
