An intimate space of grand proportions. Rockhaven is a 60acre farm hosting angus cattle with beautiful valley views and peaceful surrounds. Wake with sunrise and the sounds of local birds, or settle in for an uninterrupted sunset view across the valley. A place to escape in the hinterlands of Byron, while being close enough to drive less than 10min to the famous Eltham pub, or 15min to Bangalow or Alstonville.
Visit the creek with fishing pontoon, have a beer amongst the cattle, or simply roam the grounds. Fresh produce seasonally available from the market garden for purchase.
We have three social and inquisitive dogs who will likely pay you a visit during your stay. You might also like to visit the goats and chickens while you're here, or come along for daily egg collection.

On a lush 286 acres backing onto Border Ranges National Park, we are surrounded by 3kms of creek with flowing slopes and beautiful sunset views of Mt Lindesay.
For campers we are focusing on around 30 acres and spots close to Sawpit Creek would be ideal to set up camp.
Bring your tent, swag or caravan and park up next to our beautiful Sawpit creek. Perfect for a swim! Currently there's a picnic table and some seating areas.
We will be building a compost toilet and large BBQ area soon! Drinking water is available, and at the moment we are welcoming only self-contained campers who bring their own camping toilet/shower.
Your pet is welcome to camp with you.
Our property backs onto Border Ranges National Park! And you can see Mt Lindesay from our property, so bring your camera! It's 15 min to Wiangaree and 35 min to Kyogle.
The camping area is 2WD accessible but you will have to cross some creeks. You should be ok in the 2WD as the creek crossing has a small incline and decline. We welcome caravans, campervans and camper-trailers/ tents.
You may see us pass by the camping area from time to time. We are a friendly as 😊 and invite you to have a coffee or beer with us.
There's no internet by the creek but you're more than welcome to connect to the wifi at our shack up the hill.

We had a great night at Jane's place. The space is beautiful, quiet and spacious. Well maintained grassy areas to park up and enjoy. Super close to The General Store to stock up on some basics and grab fuel as we left. Highly recommend. Could easily stay longer to explore this beautiful area. Thanks for having us!
