Martinsville, NSW · 10 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
We are located at the foot of the Watagan Mountains, with space, serenity, and a bit of bush magic. Whether you’re here to tackle the 4WD tracks in the Watagans, explore Lake Macquarie’s waterways, or hit the coast (just 20–40 mins away), we’ve got the perfect base for your group.
Massive, well-spaced sites surrounded by birdlife, nature, and with a friendly resident doggo. Located just one hour north of Sydney via the M1, we’re the ideal "test run" for your new camper, van, or tent—plus, we're close enough to shops if you forget the essentials!
The Facilities (The Honest Truth):
We offer a flush toilet and an outdoor warm camp shower at no extra cost to the site fees. They are functional, but they aren't "Instagrammable." If you need luxury amenities, we might not be the spot for you. But if you're here for the open space, the bush, and quality time with friends and family, you’ll love it here as much as we do.
Also we have unfenced dams and waterways, if you are camping with young children please consider carefully and let me know before booking.
Please read the site rules and camping conditions to ensure this site suits your needs.

Ellalong, NSW · 14 sites · Tents, RVs
Nestled under the Watagan mountains escarpment in the Hunter valley, the property has some amazing views in all directions, but still remains secluded and hidden from view. The property has been selectively cleared to maintain a balance of open land and untouched bushland which has a boundary to the Watagans National Park.
The animal life is very diverse as many species transition from the Watagans into the property and many live on site full time. These include flocks of amazing bird species such as Gang gang and Black Cockatoos, resident Wedge tailed eagles, Kookaburras, finches, honey eaters, Coucals, Lyrebirds and more. Wallabies of various types are common, and Sugar gliders can be seen on the flowering Eucalypts.
The camping areas for RV's sit on a large elevated flat area that border a large gorge with broken views towards the Hunter Valley vineyards. The Gorge (or Canyon) is rimmed by caves and has rainforest type trees in the bottom. The caves can be explored and the rainforest can be walked if you are fit!
The tent and camper trailer areas are terraced into an area of slight slope with a number of sites to chose from. Non potable water taps are available at each caravan site and at intervals in the camping area. This water is clear fresh dam or bore water and can be used for showers, washing up etc. Two flush toilets are available for use by both RV's and campers. There is a central fire pit.
We have a private site which has open views over the Hunter Valley to the Vineyards and beyond to the Barrington tops. This site has a cliff edge pool that comfortably fits up to 4 people for a dip. This area has a large fire pit that can be used to heat the pool in winter.
This site has its own flushing toilet and Shower. This site is best suited to a caravan as it is terraced, though it would be possible to setup tents or a camper van in this location also. This can also be booked as a group site.
16minutes to Cessnock, 25minutes to the M1, 2.25 hours to Sydney central and 25 minutes to Pokolbin.
The location is generally very peaceful with all sorts of wildlife.
There is plenty of ground sticks for fire wood and bulk timber for purchase.

Monkerai, NSW · 5 sites · Tents, RVs
Premium and exclusive natural camping at its best.
Our farm is located on the beautiful Karuah River in the picturesque Monkerai valley. The river is a fresh mountain river running from the foothills of Barrington Tops.
We only offer 5 sites across our 300 acre property giving you absolute privacy and a sense of serenity
We were very pleased to have been recognised by Hipcamp as being one of the top 20 Hipcamp locations in NSW for 2022.
Most of the year the river is lovely and clear and ideal for swimming canoeing floating on airbeds fishing photography or just enjoying. There is also some really nice bike riding and walking opportunities around the valley although you will be on gravel roads and we are only 25 min drive from the popular Dungog mountain bike park.
You are likely to see a variety of birdlife other wildlife including black and white cockatoos ducks some lizards, occasionally wallabies, echidnas and if you are lucky a Platypus or two. We are fortunate to see platypus in the river frequently which is a sign of just how pristine the water running down from the mountains really is.
You will have your campsite completely to yourself with no other camper near you. Privacy, tranquillity, relaxation and just enjoying nature is waiting for you. Be sure to bring your telescope as you’ll be amazed at the stargazing at night with no light pollution.
Swimming, canoeing and running the rapids on surf mats is always popular at our property and as long as the river is it normal levels and a lot of fun. However, we always highly recommend people wear some form of footwear in the river such as rafting sandals or old joggers or similar as the rocks are very hard on your feet and there’s a particular nasty little fish called a “Bullrout” that whilst rare can infect a nasty sting if you tread on one. No need to be overly concerned but be mindful.
Our property is ideal for self-contained vans, camper trailers, medium motor homes, tents or swags, it’s up to you. There are no toilets so only suitable if you have your own toilet facilities and take away all waste when you leave. All toilet waste, leaving our property is very important and an absolutely essential requirement for all visitors. Public waste dump points are at Stroud, Dungog and Gloucester.
Gloucester Dungog and historic Stroud village are nearby as well as Barrington Tops World Heritage wilderness area and national park.
This is an operating farm and therefore farming activities such as cattle droving, fencing, grass cutting or hay making may occasionally be occurring somewhere near your site but we would always let you know. We are sure you will enjoy our farm far more than a crowded traditional caravan park or campgrounds.
We do have some limited bags of firewood for sale at $20 a bag most of the year. These are heavy bags of very dry local Hardwood. You can also collect firewood along the riverbanks yourself or bring your own firewood for a campfire (subject to any fire restrictions) if that is easier and more convenient for you.
When you make a reservation at the property we will always endeavour to put you in your preferred location as best we can. However if we are impacted by adverse weather or need to run cattle on certain parts of the farm then we may need to make a change to the actual site you are in and trust you understand.
We look forward to you visiting our farm.

This was our 4th time at Willow Banks, first time with the Grandchildren. They absolutely loved it as much as we do. Thank you to Jo and Ian for once again being wonderful and friendly hosts. A big thank you to Ian for the tour of the property, we absolutely enjoyed hearing and seeing the history of your family property, was a privilege. We absolutely loved waking up to see and hear the cows and their calves, kids loved feeding the horses an apple. Definitely will be back, camp grounds are so well kept and private. The river is so tranquil and relaxing.

We had an incredible time at Mei’s campsite!! Mei and her husband were so friendly and welcoming, and Mei made sure we had everything we needed when we arrived after dark. The campsite itself was absolutely stunning, and all the other campers were super friendly too! Such a lovely experience, would highly recommend! 😊

Mei and John were fantastic hosts that were full of humour and responsive with every question we had! The site was private and quiet at night which made falling asleep very easy. The campground is large and has a private fire pit at each site for campfires. They also have a thoughtful communal area with fridges/freezers and hot showers on site. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a campsite on the mid north coast. With their constant upgrades, we can't wait to visit them again!

Absolutely loved our stay! Plenty of room for a big van - privately nestled away from the rest of the farm/air BnB with lovely afternoon shade and a view of the Arabian horses. Michael was so accommodating and patient with the kids on the farm tour and we had the best time - genuinely the best farm experience we’ve ever had. The animals were so well cared for, and Jenny was the loveliest lady, who certainly doesn’t let age stop her from jumping on the motorbike! Such a special experience. 🤍 Highly recommend!

One of the best Hipcamp locations to date. The location itself was great, just a short walk to the tavern and beach. Campground was beautiful, lots of woodland areas surrounding the site and you are far away enough from other people that you don’t feel like you’re camping on top of each other. The host Andrew was great, showed us to our camp and checked in on us throughout our stay. We are already looking forward to coming back!

Return guests 3rd time, can not fault Willow bank. From the the host that go above and beyond, escorting you to your camp site and ensuring you are well looked after. The sites are spread out and private along the river bank and the river is beautiful. Lucky to see the fire flies this trip and absolutely love the serenity. As always a big thank you to Jo and Ian for there hospitality., Highly recommend to everyone. Willow Banks is that brilliant we are returning again next weekend with the Grandchildren so they too can experience the wonder of Willow Bank.

From the get go we were greeted by Joanne and Ian, great people friendly. The site was amazing with fire pit and wood already onsite. Heaps of shaded area but enough sun up the top to keep the solar batteries charged.
We will definitely be back and can’t wait to try the other sites. Fantastic location to Stroud and Gloucester.
