Owned and run by our family for over 20 years. We have loved the farm so much we decided others should get to experience it too and let them get out and take in the peace and serenity of being in nature.
We offer 8 spacious campsites as well as a self sufficient cabin overlooking stunning sunset views to the west of our property. We also have a communal flushable toilet for our campers for those who don't have their own camp toilets.
Escape the busy city life and come light a campfire and watch the sunrise and sunset, enjoy the amazing views, wildlife and keep an eye out for koalas in the trees.
Bathurst is known for motorsports thanks to Mount Panorama, one of the world’s most famous circuits. It hosts a number of international racing events, including the Bathurst 12 Hour and the Bathurst 1000. When it's not being used for a race, the public can take a spin around the course and visit wineries along the track.
Visit the National Motor Racing Museum, right next to the track. The Australian Fossil and Mineral Museum boasts a Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton and the Bathurst Regional Art Gallery is home to a wonderful collection of Australian paintings and contemporary artworks.
Spend the day in Bathurst by seeing many of the amazing sites including the famous Ben Chiffley Dam and spend the day on the water and even a short drive to Rockley to visit the famous pub now owned by Matt Moran.
Bathurst has many local wineries and distillerys but make sure to head on over to reckless brewery.

We are Marilyn and Peter, we own, live and run a mixed farming business from this beautiful land, located in the Central Tablelands NSW.
The country varies between undulating and steep land and has 7 km of double frontage Bell River running through it.
The river can range from rapidly flowing to the more usual steady flowing and is most often very clear. The river has numerous swimming spots, some with a rocky base, and some with sand. The winding river and the varying countryside is incredibly peaceful and beautiful and is a perfect retreat for those looking to disconnect and relax.
The river has its origin near Orange and is also fed into by many springs. Weandre Creek runs in the backcountry and winds into the Bell River.
Our comfortable Hut is situated on an elevated spot looking down on the river with a graduated road leading down. It has everything you need for a relaxing, recharging stay in nature.
The Hut can accommodate up to 4 people, however, you also have the option for up to 6 additional guests to set up swags, tents, or a camper trailer nearby. There is space next to the Hut, or for those with a 4WD, there are some lovely camping sites down by the river.
We also offer sites for those looking for a self-contained camping site, in a beautiful location.
We love the solitude, the endless bush walks, swimming, and being immersed in nature. We are confident you will too.
We also have a lovely art gallery on the property, and for a small fee and prior arrangement, you are welcome to come and take a look.
From our farm, it is 60 km to Orange with all its wineries, food festivals, and many attractions. Wellington is 40 km and boasts the Wellington Caves. Dubbo is 90 km and is a big inland city and boasts the Western Plains Zoo.
We are so glad to let you know we have a new (but intentionally rustic) structure which houses a shower powered by gas and solar with gravity fed water.
Showers need to be short because water supply is limited.
In a separate space is a gas BBQ and sink.
This is pictured in our latest photos.
This building also looks down on the Bell river which looks sensational at the moment due to all the rain.

Weekend Trip to The Hideaway Oberon
Amazing place, felt like a proper North American log cabin. Lots of options for cooking including a full barbecue. The hot shower was pretty impressive for a homemade job.
I'd echo what other reviewers have said about 4wd or AWD. We took my 2wd paddock basher in and made it but not recommended as we needed to walk about 200m with our stuff. Annabelle very upfront about it which we appreciated.
We will be coming back, if you'll have us :)

What a beautiful spot for an unplugged weekend - a big stand out for us was how clean the cabin, toilet and shower all were, it felt like a little piece of luxury. Love that the place is pet friendly - my old greyhound set up on the veranda of the cabin and seemed to have a lovely time enjoying watching the world pass by. I would recommend ensuring you have a 4WD for the driveway access. Thank you for having us Annabelle, we’d love to come back again and experience a cosy winter weekend here.

Was not an ideal day to camp around 39 deg 🥵 and we booked Stargazing flat with no shade. Michele was kind enough to suggest us to move to Wooden Valley with shades and next to the toilet. So thank you for your kindness. Camping grounds are located far enough and feels private. The sunrise view in the morning was amazing with lots of kangaroos. We also spotted a koala in their natural habitat which was magical and cute moment. Kids were super excited.

We’ve stayed at Mount Testa three times now and couldn’t fault it. Sites are nicely spaced for privacy, the sunrise is stunning with kangaroos around, and loved the addition of the little library. Toilets are surprisingly clean and well maintained. Definitely our go-to campsite!

Marilyn and Peter are the kind of hosts you hope for, welcoming, helpful and friendly. Marilyn was responsive leading up to the trip, greeted us on arrival and guided us to camp. Peter stopped in for a yarn and to check in on us during our hot stay too.
The campsite along the creek was the perfect private escape. Nothing but beauty, peace and quiet.
Wonderful country hospitality and charm! Thank you so much for having is on your stunning property.

This is a beautiful private camping area, we loved the swimming and Marilyn met us and showed us down to the river. Pete had a chat the next day also, just lovely people. We had caravans and they were no trouble, but recommend 4wd to get up the hill on the way out, as its quite steep and rocky. Fabulous few days, thank you to our hosts.

We didn’t end up getting to stay at the cabin as we couldn’t get into the drive way. Would definitely recommend taking a four wheel drive if you are going after rain. Annabelle was lovely and did everything she could to help but it just didn’t work out. So would definitely recommend Annabelle as she was friendly, kind and helpful.

I had the most incredible stay! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded expectations. The view alone was worth the trip – the kind that makes you stop in your tracks and just breathe it all in. Sunrise, sunset, even the quiet moments in between… every angle felt like a postcard.
Our host was absolutely outstanding. Warm, thoughtful, and genuinely passionate about making our stay perfect. Every little detail was considered, and their recommendations made the experience even better.
And the activities were unforgettable. Whether we were exploring, relaxing, or trying something new, there was always something exciting to do. It felt like the perfect balance of adventure and ease.
I couldn’t recommend this place more highly. If you’re looking for a stay that feels special, memorable, and beautifully hosted – this is the one. I’m already dreaming of returning!

Marilyn and Peter were wonderful, warm hosts. This campsite is on a beautiful piece of land and we were free to explore our surroundings. Marilyn let us know that we could walk as far as we liked in any direction and there was little chance we would walk far enough to exit the 3000 acre property. The river is beautiful with a little beach for swimming on the other side. The farm is absolutely beautiful with rolling hills and plenty of friendly cows. We had an amazing time exploring the property and the surrounding area.

Weekend Trip to The Hideaway Oberon
The perfect hideaway!! We had a lovely weekend and saw so much wildlife. It was so nice to dip our feet in the stream on a warm sunny day. And the shower was luxury when it was chilly in the evening! The cabin was so cosy and comfy. Would definitely recommend, and hope to come back one day. Next time will have to bring binoculars to watch the birds. Thank you Annabelle and Drew.

We had a large family group who thoroughly enjoyed the ruggedness and pristine peace and quite of Wooden Valley including the wildlife, spectacular stargazing and beautiful sunsets and sunrises.
The kids could ride their bikes, play, run free and just be kids, safely on our very well maintained site and paddock nearby.
Michael was a great host and his instructions to the site were spot on.
Looking forward to visiting again in the future.
