Pindari Farm - Mount Tully
4. Pindari Farm - Mount Tully
Stanthorpe, QLD · 30 sites · Tents, RVs
On 120 acres, Pindari Farm offers a budget friendly camping experience for families. The camp allows for self contained tent campers, caravans, camp trailers and RVs.
Approximately 60 acres is open for use by campers. If you have a large booking, you can hang out together or spread out to have a little more space.
There is a plentiful supply of firewood around the paddocks that can be collected, if there isn't a load already near the fire pit (when fire bans are not in place). We also sell eggs and honey produced on our farm. If we are processing honey during your stay, you are also quite welcome to have a look.
There is basically no mobile phone reception at the farm but only a few short minutes down Eukey or Mount Tully Roads will give you some reception to check in with family and friends. This is great if you want a digital detox!
There is no toilet, shower or kitchen facilities - yet. But with 2 new carpenters in the family, I may offer them a lamb roast in exchange for some outhouses.
You will often be woken by the magpies, kookaburras and the gorgeous rosellas cruising around picking at grass seed. Not to mention in late winter and early spring we have our lambing and kidding season. You are welcome to come to the house to have a tour and a cuddle upon arrangement.
There may also be some cattle on the property at times, they are agisted by some lovely neighbours. They come close for a sticky beak but will usually shy away when approached.
Pindari Farm is a stones throw away from Girraween National Park, the Pyramids, Bald Rock, a number of water falls, Granite Belt wineries, the chocolate factory, the Christmas Tree Farm, pick your own fruit farms, and not too far down the road is Storm King Dam which (now that its full) is great for fishing, kayaking and boating.
Otherwise the rules are simple. Leave the place as you found it or better. Take all rubbish with you or keep it secure while you are away - there is wildlife. The Stanthorpe Tip is on your way back into town. If a gate is open please leave it open, if you find one closed, you are welcome to venture through to explore (unless otherwise signed) but please close it behind you. It’s an old farm so things can be buried under the grass, so shoes are highly recommended.

Ashby, NSW · 11 sites · Tents, RVs
Welcome to Our Cane & Cattle Farm on the Clarence River
Step onto our four‑generation working cane and cattle farm, where the smell of fresh‑cut cane, the hum of farm life, and the shimmer of the Clarence River set the tone for your stay. Your adventure begins at the entrance, marked by “Rusty,” our old sugarcane harvester — a true piece of local history and a favourite photo stop.
The winding driveway leads you through the paddocks, past different cane varieties and grazing horses and cattle. The front horse paddock will soon become our upgraded camp kitchen and guest area, and we’re excited to keep improving the space while staying true to the farm’s heritage.
Life on the Farm
Days here follow the rhythm of the land and the river. Wander through the cane, taste sweet juice straight from the stalk, and see how sugarcane is grown and harvested. Enjoy bike riding, walking trails, quiet fishing spots, and kayaking or canoeing straight from the property. The Ashby Creek swimming hole offers a calm, sheltered place for a refreshing dip.
Life on the River
This part of the Clarence is famous for water skiing, boating, and long, glassy stretches perfect for exploring. The fishing here is excellent, with calm water and plenty of great spots right from the property. We often boat across to Maclean for supplies, giving guests a real taste of river life.
The sunsets here are something else — short, stunning bursts of colour that light up the whole river and paddocks. As the sun drops, the sky turns gold, pink, and deep orange, and the Clarence reflects it all like glass. It’s a quiet, peaceful moment where everything slows down and the whole farm glows.
Exploring the Clarence Valley
There’s plenty to do nearby — enjoy a meal at the Harwood Hotel, stop for morning tea on Chatsworth Island, or join in local favourites like the Maclean Cane Harvest Festival, Maclean Highland Gathering, Yamba, Iluka and Brooms head famous beaches and the Grafton Races. The Clarence Valley is full of character, history, and country charm.
This is a place for people who love the outdoors, appreciate real farm life, and want a mix of adventure and tranquillity. Whether you’re here to fish, explore, learn, or simply breathe out, the farm gives you a genuine Northern Rivers experience.

Welcome to Aloomba Lavender Farm.
We offer bush camping with powered and unpowered sites. This means you will not be placed very close to other vans unless you are friends and choose to be together. In many cases you will be able to choose where you wish to park.
Not all sites are level, but you are able to site your camp/ van as you wish. There are no cement pads. There is access to toilets and hot showers. You may have to walk some distance to the amenities but the solitude, the quiet, safety and stars make all worthwhile.
There is a dedicated firepit and firewood is supplied.
We can supply no water other than sufficient to cook dinner. You are welcome to use some of the vegetables and herbs but not to strip the vegetable garden! If in doubt - ask.
We have great coffee and Devonshire teas but we are not a cafe. However there is a great little lavender shop where you can buy our own lavender essential oil, or a cake of soap or a Baggallini Handbag.
We are dog friendly! We welcome well behaved dogs.
We are 20 km from Stanthorpe. You may see wildlife or cattle through the fence and an occasional vehicle going down the road. We have a sealed road all the way to our boundary and then drive through the lavender.
If you visit in late November through to early December you will enjoy our lavender flowering, but the plants look very pretty all year around in neat rows.
We are a commercial farm so there is the need to work to the rhythm of the lavender.

Silent Grove, NSW · 19 sites · Tents, RVs
Binghi Station
Located approximately 4.5hours from Brisbane, Queensland, or 1.5 hour drive west of Tenterfield, New South Wales. Binghi Station, once a large sheep station, was a thriving tin and gem mine from the late 1800 to mid 1900.
Set on 4,000 acres of natural granite rock country and untouched overgrowth of lush tea tree bushlands, the sheer beauty of the land will, without a doubt, leave you breathless of its raw natural beauty.
Binghi Station surrendered to the ravaging bush fires of 2019, however, after this devastation came some much needed rainfall which brought hope; the creation of new life in the form of rich, vibrant green country not seen since the 1980’s.
You can explore endlessly on this raw outback property. Discover secret hideouts, come and enjoy a swim under our flowing waterfall (for those brave enough to during the winter months!) and simply relax and soak in pure wildlife beneath a million stars in the night sky.
Binghi Station is designed for the 4x4 enthusiasts. In other words we strongly recommend access by 4WD only as the entry 6klm driveway is very rugged and bumpy in most places due to heavy rain fall past 12 months. Please ask for more details if necessary should you have any concerns based on your equipment. Its an ongoing maintenance. Its the 4x4 adventure. We would rather talk it down than up:-)
Currently we do not recommend SUV AWD type cars due to there lower profile and vulnerability to bumps and ruts. It is doable many do it all however about driver confidence and add another upto 2hours to trip :-) We recommend parking up the top driveway and having a preplanned lift down.
BE WARNED The driveway and some tracks are rough suited for 4x4 adventure enthusiasts that like to use there pride and joy offroad gear for what its intended.
ps One thing we can say you will never get bogged on our driveway no matter the rain fall as its very compacted despite its authentic rough character.
The Secret Gorge site is suited to tents, camper trailers and smaller length caravans. All our other site locations are suited to off-road 4WD caravans and camper trailers.
Binghi Station - an extraordinary place to make some truly wonderful family memories. :-)

Figtree Farm at Findon Creek is a 600-acre natural oasis. Tucked away in a tranquil, secluded valley, this hidden gem is surrounded by Long Creek to the south and Findon Creek to the west, while the northern edge extends to the Dedicated Wilderness of the Border Ranges National Park.
This much-loved family-owned farm has a rich history, transitioning from a dairy farm to a beef property. Today, it flourishes with a bio-diverse planting of native trees and a joinery workshop crafting designer furniture.
Cabin at Valley's End is our flagship accommodation at Figtree Farm. Having 3-bedrooms and 3 bathrooms it is an ideal place for a relaxing weekend. The cabin has flat ground on 2 sides which allows for additional campers (up to 20 people).
In addition we offer 3 creek-side camp sites which have plenty of room for large groups; they are all situated on well drained, grassy open spaces beside the creek. In wet conditions you will need a 4WD to access these sites.
Figtree Farm has an abundance of bird and animal life. Here, tranquillity reigns, save for the occasional serenade of our friendly neighbourhood donkeys and the odd rooster. If you wish to wander further afield, Wiangaree is 15 minutes away and Kyogle is a 30 minute drive south. For those who enjoy a game of tennis there is an all weather tennis court (with lights) nearby at Bundgeam Hall.
Figtree Farm at Findon Creek promises opportunities for contemplation, relaxation and fun and it is our wish that you will have many happy memories of your visit here.

Escape to our working beef cattle property set along the beautiful Mann River, just 35 minutes west of Grafton or 1.5 hours from Glen Innes.
Enjoy wide open spaces, peaceful river views, and a genuine taste of country life.
We offer seven spacious, grassy campsites overlooking the river.
Four sites with easy 2WD access and three long-drop toilets available.
Two sites on our island, 4WD accessible only – perfect for those seeking extra privacy. (Self-sufficient campers only – bring your own toilet.)
One site “around the bend”, also 4WD access only, BYO toilet required.
Each campsite features its own fire pit, perfect for cooking dinner or relaxing by the campfire under the stars.
Firewood is available near the gate to the river for $10 per bag.
Campers have 2 km of riverfront to enjoy – ideal for swimming, fishing, kayaking, or simply soaking up the serenity.
You’ll often see our cattle and horses grazing through the camping areas, adding to the authentic rural charm.
If you need to stock up, the Mann River Caravan Park shop is close by for ice, gas, ice cream, and takeaway meals.
Come unwind, connect with nature, and experience real country hospitality by the river.
There are plenty of great day trips from camp — visit scenic river crossings like Cangai, Hanging Rock, Coombadjha, Lillydale, and Copmanhurst, or head up the Gibraltar Range to explore Washpool and Gibraltar Range National Parks for rainforest walks, birdwatching, and waterfalls like Boundary Falls.

This hipcamp has everything we wanted for our trip. Right on the water, well maintained site, fireplace, quiet, lots of wildlife around, kangaroos, birds, and some farm animals, cows and horses.
It is one we hope to come back to again.

Silky oak tree was an amazing site to stay at. Easy and clear communication with the hosts. The views were amazing and the working farm was a beautiful touch as the horses were friendly and we were able to pat them as they grazed the land.
Access was easy and we were able to come and go freely. Other people arrived and we still felt alone as the sites were spaced out. Beautiful walk down to the river. Water was clear and refreshing, we had a beautiful swim before leaving.
Highly recommend.

We had such a lovely stay at Secret Gorge with our dog, he absolutely loved playing in the water and exploring the area with us. During our stay we also visited Jump n Rocks and Sandy Falls, which were both beautiful and definitely worth seeing. The whole place felt so peaceful and majestic, with so many rock pools and little spots to explore. Even with lower water levels in some areas, the scenery was still stunning. We also had a lovely chat with the hosts, which made the experience even nicer.
Would definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting a relaxing nature getaway!

What an absolute gem! Jaya's site was bigger than expected and the access to the river was perfect for a refreshing dip.
The privacy and peacefulness of the site was everything you need for a little gateway away from everything.
The owner was such a nice person, dropping off wood to the site for the fire once a day.
I highly recommend it, probably the best campground I have ever experienced.
