Weekend Trip to Bellandre Park

Fabulous location down by the river , peace , quiet and an amazing star show ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

2 nights at Riveroak Farm

First time Hipcamp experience for us was nothing short of amazing. Directions to the campsite were very clear and easily accessible. The horses are friendly, cool and didn’t disturb us. They did provide us with entertainment galloping up and down the paddock. The river, the ducks, the cows from across the river, the views are all spectacular. It rained, It was cold but even our 2 x 18 year old daughters asked when can we come back. What a beautiful piece of this great country.

Weekend Trip to Farm Stay "Como Valley"@ Ben Bullen

A quiet, peaceful space surrounded in natural beauty. Campsites are spaced far apart so you have plenty of privacy. It rained a fair bit while we were there and it was lovely to see the river full so quickly. It has an amazing turquoise colour.

Weekend Trip to On the Stone River Retreat

Great part of the world. Great communication with marje. It’s the place to be. Well maintained and a lovely river.

Weekend Trip to "Oakview" Tarana

Beautiful and peaceful camping spot right by the Fish River.

Weekend Trip to Borenore Billabong Field Days site

Plenty of room between sites . Beautiful views. Close to Orange.

Weekend Trip to The Orchard

This is a great Hipcamp with a very calm and wonderful atmosphere, clean facilities and lovely hosts. The communication was easy and we even got some great recommendations where to go. There are two wineries in walking distance and the walking tracks are super close. The campfire was a highlight and I can totally recommend this place! Thank you Tracey again.

Weekend Trip to Farm Stay "Como Valley"@ Ben Bullen

Absolutely brilliant. Massive camping property and we were completely secluded. I'm looking forward to bringing our kids here. No devices and enjoying nature. Kangaroos, wallabies, possums, wombats, birds of all kinds, and big moths. The creek was amazing to walk along and explore. 4wd a must as there were a couple of creek crossings, plus the wet weather can make it muddy. Highly recommended.

Weekend Trip to Farm Stay "Como Valley"@ Ben Bullen

Perfect spot! Beautiful valley with nice creek that winds through. Very put back and isolated. Sites have good distance between and are very private. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others!

3 nights at Watton Airstrip

Super peaceful stay in the overflow area. Barely saw another person the time I was there. Great spot with plenty of space and privacy.

Weekend Trip to Cargo Road Wines

Unique experience and the perfect way to feel closer to the winemaking process being settled in amongst the vineyards. Highly recommend doing the wine tour with James who takes great pride in his vineyard and winemaking. Had everything we needed and perfectly located

3 nights at Peronne Adventure Camping

What a beautiful Hipcamp. Very peaceful by a little creek. Beautiful views from the campsite and even better on the walks. Michael supplies firewood which is a bonus. Nothing beats sitting around the campfire and admiring the stars. Great Hipcamp and would definitely be back. Michael is a great host! Thanks for having us!

Weekend Trip to Watton Airstrip

The river location is beautiful, the campsites are super clean and well cared for and Tammie and Damien are welcoming and helpful.

3 nights at Riveroak Farm

We had a great stay at Riveroak! The campsite was huge, clean and flat. All the animals and locals were friendly and very welcoming. Highly recommend!

3 nights at Watton Airstrip

How fortunate we are that Damian and Tammie have shared this beautiful spot on the river. Great spot for kids to ride bikes, explore the river and interact with horses. We enjoyed collecting firewood from the property and taking in all the wonderful views. We booked the happy camper which was set back from the river, but still with a great view of the river and only a very short and easy walk to get to it. It was the perfect spot for our family with young kids. The site was grassy and very well maintained which made it easier for our newly walking one year old to get around without problem. A portaloo and bins were provided and well maintained. We were towing a lifestyle ICONN E4 with a Prado. 4WD only accurately describes the access but we had no problems getting in or out even with a day of rain before leaving. Damian was very courteous in coming to check that we were comfortable with driving out in the conditions also. We will definitely look forward to visiting again.

3 nights at "Oakview" Tarana

Fantastic private site in a picturesque valley. Reasonably clean, with all the space you need. Easy access to the river, so great for kids to swim and explore

3 nights at Watton Airstrip

Absolutely loved this spot! It was so peaceful falling asleep to the sound of the river at night. Nothing beats sitting by a campfire with a view and waking up to farm animals wandering around - the best experience! Perfect for dogs as well, ours had the best time!
