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 · 13 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.

We do not allow fires at the campsite between the 1st of October and the 1st of March. We apologise for any inconvenience to this rule.
La Cascina is a small property on a hill surrounded by trees and bushland. There are two main camping areas which would suite tent and small to medium van/car camping. There is access to neighbouring bushland with nice short walks available in the area. Only 20 minutes by car to Newcastle CBD, 10 minutes by car to Redhead Beach and 5 minutes by car to Lake Macquarie.
La Cascina is a great spot to stop overnight on a road trip or to get away for the weekend to relax. We have no toilets so please bring your own. The access to the property is a steep sealed driveway.
Site 1 is an open site with plenty of shade. The area is flat. More suited to larger camping setups. This site is less private. There is vision of the neighbouring property and an overflow campsite 50 meters away.
Site 2 is a more uneven surface area which is better for smaller vans and tents.
Redhead Beach is the closest dog beach 10 minutes by car.
Croudace Bay is a dog park on the lake which is 5 minutes by car.
This is a family owned acreage that brings the best parts of environmental living with the benefits of being close to the coast and a city. A very long time ago it was the site of a quarry. The nature has returned and we are left with a beautiful forested acreage.

We were looking for a quick one-night escape and honestly couldn’t have picked a better place. Kellie and Rod were amazing and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The whole place has such a peaceful feel to it. We loved wandering the nature walk, the amenities were really clean, and the shared space/kitchen were awesome. You can tell Kellie/Rod put their whole heart into this place.
And of course, Ruby, the friendly, cheese-loving dog was a warm welcome!
Such a special place to switch off and relax. We’ll definitely be back.

What a welcoming and relaxing place to camp! From the moment we arrived, Kel and Rod made us feel right at home with their genuine warmth and hospitality. They've created a truly magical place to stay, and every detail reflects the care they've put into it.
The kids loved meeting and feeding the chickens and helping collect the fresh eggs. The camp kitchen is the heart of the property—full of charm, character, and unlike anything we've experienced before.
We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend Kindred Acres to anyone looking for a peaceful camping getaway. We'll definitely be back!

We had such an amazing time at Fame Mountain Camp! They had everything that we needed to be comfortable and entertained while still maintaining the mountainous camping experience. Big thanks to Mei and her family for being such wonderful hosts who have been generous with providing us with anything that we needed. Can't wait to go back!

The communication from Jennifer was excellent who always responded promptly to my messages. We had a great site for our large van and was visited by a very friendly horse. We only stayed one night but would definitely stay again.

🍃 Our Camp Trailer's Maiden Voyage 🚐✨
Every great adventure has to begin somewhere... and for us, that place was Our Kindred Acres at Bombah Point, NSW.
Just 10 minutes from Bulahdelah for those inevitable snack runs, coffee top ups and forgotten essentials, this beautiful camping retreat turned out to be the perfect place to give our new camp trailer its very first shakedown.
Whether you're completely self-sufficient, travelling with a caravan or camper, or prefer the comfort of a cabin, there's something here for every kind of adventurer. Ideal for back to nature fun for little ones too. The property features a huge communal fire pit, a welcoming camp kitchen and gathering shed, peaceful walking trails, and plenty of room to simply slow down and breathe.
One of my favourite parts? The dogs were free to explore off lead. Our dachshunds had an absolute ball sniffing every tree, discovering new scents and reminding us that happiness really can be found in the simplest moments. 🐾💜

We had a really fantastic time at Tejn Loft. The setting is gorgeous, we were surrounded by beautiful trees, hills and a river below. The facilities are superb and generous, so it’s really more glamping than camping. A lot of attention to details made the experience very comfy but not fussy. It was a family camping trip, us and our grown up children and their partners and the family dog. Frogs at night, birdsong in the mornings. Great bird book to reference in the kitchen too A real country escape not far from the city, a couple of nights felt like a holiday. We had some good walks along the river bank and campfires in the evening. We couldn’t have asked for better and we all highly recommend it. Thank you so much Helen and David, we hope to be back.

Easy to get to the site. I was running late and had to set up in the dark, but it wasn't an issue as Jennifer made access easy and provided detailed instructions prior to arrival. Campers should be aware that there is a possibility that horses may stumble upon your site, which happened to me. My visitors were friendly and I am pretty sure they were looking for a free feed. As soon as I went inside my tent, they lost interest and left of their own volition.
I stayed in site 1 and it was very picturesque and separated from the other sites. You can some noise from the motorway but it didn't effect my stay negatively. Fell asleep to the sounds of the frogs in the nearby pond and woke up to the birds in the morning. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay.
