The Hartley Vale Garlic Farm was established in 2018 as an organic garlic farm now owned by James and Michelle and their two children. The farm features a hempcrete building named 'The Stinking Rose' used for drying and curing garlic, that also acts as a big room for garlic feasts during planting (March, April and May each year). The building also houses toilet and shower facilities for guests when camping on site. On some evenings, the sky puts on a real show of golden sun rays with pink, purple and blue clouds while swallows flit across the garden beds catching moths. Our guests like to sit around their campfires watching the spectacular show while kids and dogs run around without the burden of leashes or noise of city traffic.

Please note that Hipcamp has increased my fees by 100%. This is on top of whatever they charge you. So contact me for special camping packages that include other optional extras that may save us money for larger groups.
Also please note that due the closure of the Great Western Highway there is currently an increase in traffic volume going past our property. Our usually quite nights are not as quiet. The campers I have had since this has happened did not seem to be too impacted by it, but if you are wanting complete quietness then maybe wait until the Highway is re-opened.
Our property is located in the Blue Mountains, nestled right in the middle of the national park and all that the Blue Mountains bush has to offer. Gums, ferns, fresh air and swimming holes.
I only allow one group to camp at any one time per site. Other groups will be well away from you. However the dam is available for everyone to use. I adjust each booking with each group depending on size of the group and time of year. I also hold large events so will book out the entire site for large groups.
Just a short drive from Sydney (1 ½ hours from Parramatta) but a world away with its ancient forests and meandering pathways. All photos are from the site or within a 2km walk of the camping site in National Park or reserve. Please note that the canyon photos are from a spot that is very difficult to get to.
I welcome self-contained campers with your own camping toilet/shower, and drinking water. However there are facilities on site for smaller groups at an extra cost.
The property offers a number of sites that can accommodate various group numbers. Please message me if you're interested in booking one or more listings for your special get together.
Dogs are welcome as long as they are friendly, but no cats please. Also please be aware that we are surrounded by nature and part of nature are the snakes and ticks.
- we need to keep this environment for the wildlife. Please take all your belongings and rubbish with you when you leave. Leave it better than as you found it.
Please be aware that due to our proximity to the road and rail that at times you will hear some traffic noise. But most times it is very quiet except for the frogs.

The Hartley Vale Garlic Farm was established in 2018 as an organic garlic farm now owned by James and Michelle and their two children. The farm features a hempcrete building named 'The Stinking Rose' used for drying and curing garlic, that also acts as a big room for garlic feasts during planting (March, April and May each year). The building also houses toilet and shower facilities for guests when camping on site. On some evenings, the sky puts on a real show of golden sun rays with pink, purple and blue clouds while swallows flit across the garden beds catching moths. Our guests like to sit around their campfires watching the spectacular show while kids and dogs run around without the burden of leashes or noise of city traffic.

Please note that Hipcamp has increased my fees by 100%. This is on top of whatever they charge you. So contact me for special camping packages that include other optional extras that may save us money for larger groups.
Also please note that due the closure of the Great Western Highway there is currently an increase in traffic volume going past our property. Our usually quite nights are not as quiet. The campers I have had since this has happened did not seem to be too impacted by it, but if you are wanting complete quietness then maybe wait until the Highway is re-opened.
Our property is located in the Blue Mountains, nestled right in the middle of the national park and all that the Blue Mountains bush has to offer. Gums, ferns, fresh air and swimming holes.
I only allow one group to camp at any one time per site. Other groups will be well away from you. However the dam is available for everyone to use. I adjust each booking with each group depending on size of the group and time of year. I also hold large events so will book out the entire site for large groups.
Just a short drive from Sydney (1 ½ hours from Parramatta) but a world away with its ancient forests and meandering pathways. All photos are from the site or within a 2km walk of the camping site in National Park or reserve. Please note that the canyon photos are from a spot that is very difficult to get to.
I welcome self-contained campers with your own camping toilet/shower, and drinking water. However there are facilities on site for smaller groups at an extra cost.
The property offers a number of sites that can accommodate various group numbers. Please message me if you're interested in booking one or more listings for your special get together.
Dogs are welcome as long as they are friendly, but no cats please. Also please be aware that we are surrounded by nature and part of nature are the snakes and ticks.
- we need to keep this environment for the wildlife. Please take all your belongings and rubbish with you when you leave. Leave it better than as you found it.
Please be aware that due to our proximity to the road and rail that at times you will hear some traffic noise. But most times it is very quiet except for the frogs.

When I booked to stay I also ordered a fresh loaf of home made bread, Tammie met me at the front door on our arrival with the freshly baked hot loaf of bread, straight from the oven. Definitely need a 4WD to get down to the river over the rocky road. Well worth the drive. We loved camping at the Rivers Edge for a couple of days. Very spacious with green grass, the sound of running water, no phone or wi-fi made it very relaxing for us. Would definitely camp there again in any of the camp spots and will recommend to family and friends.

My boyfriend and I loved the location of this campground. We easily could’ve stayed longer.
Loved waking up to the sound of running creek water and native birds.
10/10 experience and gorgeous property!

If you are looking for a camp site with wide open spaces, incredible views, private sites, camp fires, hot showers and plentiful drinking water then Gary's Farm is your pick. Gary went above and beyond to help us with our flat battery and details of the local area. We will be back! Thanks

This was our first time with our camper trailer and this place was amazing. The hosts were even better. We stayed at the deep spot. Great swim spot in the river right at your site. A nice distance from your closest neighbours. Horses walk by. One in particular demands a bit of attention so you better give him a neck rub.
To the owners. Lovely people. Make sure you chat with Damien he has a great day trip you can do if you’re into driving along a river. Which clearly if you’re going to stay here you are. At the end of that is the coolest little town with an awesome pub you can’t not pop in for a bev.
Yeah I sound pretty positive about all this so I better drop a negative. There is a possum that is quite interested in what you may leave out for him. He is a fan of cereal. We had an awesome time and will tell everyone I know to make this a stop if heading around the Bathurst area. Oh yeah and only 20 minutes into Bathurst that has a lot to offer. Couldn’t go wrong with this place absolutely loved it. Thanks heaps Damien and Tammie

Absolutely beautiful camp site by the river, at night we saw possums and turtles in the river. During the day we were visited by friendly horses. Our dog had the best time being off lead. We'll definitely be coming back!

I stayed here last night with my wife and we had a great experience. The host was very kind and helpful and gave us clear guidance when we first arrived. The toilets were very clean and well maintained. The place itself is beautiful, clean, and has a really nice vibe for camping. We would definitely recommend it to anyone. 👍🏕️

We absolutely loved the location , of green grass horses and even saw a platypus . Damien was an amazing host we didn’t get to meet Tammie but I’m sure she is as lovely as Damien.
Just a very , very challenging steep rutted dirt road to get to the little slice of paradise . My wife preferred to get out and walk as it was our first trip with our new van . All good and it was a great workout for both car and van . Well worth the challenge ! We hope to return one day .
