5 nights at Tweed Valley - Doon Doon Farm

Highly recommend Doon Doon farmstay. We stayed at the family tree site and had a wonderfull few days there. The sound of the water running over the rocks lulls you into a blissful feeling of nature while the sky at night is a site to behold. It was boggy so be aware it may be slippery getting in after rain but well worth the effort. Bonus points in being visited by Bonnie and Gus’s the farm dogs with nothing to much trouble for the wonderfull hosts Anna and her husband who would bring down very large bags of firewood when needed. We loved our visit and can’t wait to get back 5 stars

Weekend Trip to Tweed Valley - Doon Doon Farm

We stayed at Feed Flat and it was awesome. Big grassy area with all day sun and a great view of Doughboy Mountain. Little creek running through the farm to explore. The other sites were a fair distance away so felt nice and private. Anna and Tim are great friendly hosts and were very welcoming. Beautiful part of the world, definitely recommend!

3 nights at Trickling Waters Retreat

We had an amazing time at Trickling Waters! Truely private and tucketed away into nature right beside the running creek. Everything you could need was provided making our stay so comfortable! The weather wasn't on our side for our stay but the tent was so cosy that it was never an issue, we just bundled up on the deck and in the tent listening to the rain and creek. We will be back!

Weekend Trip to Tweed Valley - Doon Doon Farm

What a little pocket of paradise tucked away at the end of the road in Doon Doon surrounded by ranges & amazing view of Mt Doughboy! Better than in pics. Not far from GC. We loved our stay. We already looked at booking whilst on the way home but the site we wanted was booked! A peaceful rejuvenating place, just what we needed. Wandered the creek looking for thunder eggs with the kids!! Great night skies for stargazing. Stopped in/out of the cute town of Uki. Hiked in Jerusalem NP. We did have a little difficulty getting level on Feed Flat site. Firewood excellent quality, worth buying from them, delivered to site, too easy! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing property. We hope to be back again soon.

Weekend Trip to Tweed Valley - Doon Doon Farm

Doon Doon Farm was Gem. Very green hilly paradise. Very secluded camp sites make this place a must go. We stayed at Natures Nest which is the back of the property, it is in my opinion the best views on the property when it’s wet. Anna was extremely flexable and easy going to deal with. It is a small working cattle farm which was awesome to see the cattle roaming.

Such a beautiful spot, very peaceful and relaxing. Little to no reception but still very easy to find and well signed. Perfect spot to bring board games and switch off for a couple of days.
