Weekend Trip to The Bower Farm

Loved my stay at the Bower Farm Collective. Matthew and Rachel have really paid attention to the little details and aesthetic to make this glamping experience enjoyable. If you've camped before you will love having everything there plus a kind size bed! If you haven't, it's a great Into to camping with a little extra comfort and luxury thrown in. Perfect friendly hosts! Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Cranky Rock Hunter Valley

It was a beautiful location, just perfect for a peaceful getaway. Was not crowded which was the best thing and relaxing. View was mind blowing and very easy to get there if you follow instructions.

Weekend Trip to Cranky Rock Hunter Valley

Would absolutely recommend for solo travelers and families. There are cows on the property that come and say hello. The views are incredible, especially if you wake up early to see the sunrise above the trees. The property is enough off the main road that you don’t see anyone or hear cars but still close to town that you can pop in for a coffee or explore. The camp site is very big so that you and other campers aren’t right next to each other. Will definitely be back! Can’t recommend enough!

For a one night stay the camping grounds were accomodating with amenities, location from Syd and peace and quiet. Was also woken up from a herd of cows, super fun. Highly recommend!!

2 nights at The Bower Farm

The Bower Farm Glamping Experience was outstanding! The setting is remarkable; there is a nice flat outlay where the Tent is located, and a beautiful creek that runs through their property which you can walk along and explore. The amenities are beyond what you would expect for an off-grid escape. Matt & Rachel were personable, friendly and very accommodating. They both went to great lengths to ensure that our stay was both comfortable and enjoyable. Some highlights from the Trip were the Hot Tub, the amazing view of the Stars at Night, the cozy King Size Bed and we even got to see a Platypus in the wild thanks to their suggestions on where to look. Stroud is a humble town with plenty to see and do. There are Cafes, Wineries and a Distillery only a short drive away. Can't recommend enough! Will definitely be back.

1 night at Cranky Rock Hunter Valley

I loved this place and kids enjoyed the farm animals and birds chirping in the forest. we spend a night in the tent. Place was clean and not crowded. No road noise. Easy to find. So peaceful 🥰

Weekend Trip to Hunter Valley Hill Top Lovedale

Charming pitches, friendly staff, and pretty good facilities, Margaret and her son put on a fantastic weekend. For an Easter weekend we had plenty of space for our camp, we were able to have a camp fire (remember to bring a fire pit so as not to scorch the ground) and we ended up cooking at the communal BBQ one night. All round we had a wonderful time, one slight hinderance was a slightly overwhelmed lavatory situation but it was a very small issue in an otherwise perfect weekend. There’s a variety of pitches depending on how rowdy you will be, and the land is along a one way road with at least four vineyards who do tastings along it. For best results bring bikes or push scooters for a wine tasting trek as the vineyards are in both directions, Molly Morgan’s is a must see for sunset, book in for a tasting and watch the Roos amongst the vines as the sun goes down at the end of your Hunter experience! Highly recommended for families, couples or small groups. Horse riding on site, and the Emu dance is not to be missed!

The place is huge, so you can keep your privacy. Facilities were clean and tidy. Lenny is the best host ever, he was always around in case you need support or help.

Weekend Trip to Hunter Valley Hill Top Lovedale

I would definetely go there again, so issues with campsite. plenty of room, My only comment would be it costs $40.00 per person for the tractor ride, I understand it was for 45 mins and you stop to feed the animals and such but cost inhibitive for a family unit

The property is beautiful. We had a great weekend. Lovely hosts and peaceful place to getaway.

Weekend Trip to Cranky Rock Hunter Valley

Great spot camping! Lots of families and groups. Hot shower. Bush toilets! Make sure you take some shade, as the sun had a harsh bite during the day (April). Close to Cessnock for rations. Pan and Lindsey were very friendly! It was so quiet and peaceful!!!

Weekend Trip to Cranky Rock Hunter Valley

We really enjoyed out camping experience at Cranky Rock Hunter Valley, lots of space to move around and the views were superb. Facilities were more than we were expecting, which is amazing when you are giving the experience to first time campers. Thanks Lindsay and Pam for being such a great hosts.

Weekend Trip to Cranky Rock Hunter Valley

Great hosts, lovely location. Would highly recommend.

Weekend Trip to Cranky Rock Hunter Valley

Thank you to Lindsay and Pam for being such wonderful hosts—everything was very well organised, especially considering the busyness of the Easter Long Weekend. One suggestion would be to have some clear noise guidelines in place, as our neighbours played music non-stop (quite loud), finishing around 11pm and starting again at 7am. But other than that the place was perfect, beautiful scenery, and a gorgeous clean tidy spot!

Weekend Trip to Hunter Valley Hill Top Lovedale

3 nights at Hunter Valley Hill Top Lovedale

Beautiful corner area with views of the horse and dams. First day toilets and showers were wonderful and great . We had nice trees to shade us in the day and the wind was very still this time of the year. Hosts were very informative and helpful. Our battery ran out and they didn’t hesitate to help use charge twice and even a third if we just brought it over .

I recently stayed at Poppy’s Dam Paddock in Hunter Valley. The vibe was great, the facilities were good, and Margaret and the staff were very helpful. Highly recommend!
