57km from Tamworth · 1 site · Lodging
Welcome to our river retreat. Ideal for those seeking privacy, peace and solitude away from the socials and technology. Kingfisher's Hut sits on 80 acres of our 240 acre property, on a high bank overlooking the Macdonald River as it makes it way towards the confluence with the Namoi River. Ideally suited for a couple (children and fur babies also welcome) or small groups, and those who are new to a nature escape holiday. A small solar system provides lighting (but not recharging of devices). Our insulated cabin provides a comfortable double bed (bring your own linen and pillows) and pot belly stove for the colder months. Our bush kitchen provides your basic needs with a BBQ, 12 volt fridge, and fully equipped camp kitchen. Our open fire is set up for cooking or for just sitting, relaxing and staring into the flames. Our bush bathroom provides a toilet and wood fired hot shower. Or you might chose to relax in a hot bath overlooking the river.
We welcome nature lovers and offer activities such as bush walking, bird watching, native wildlife, swimming, picnicking, kayaking (double kayak provided), catch and release fishing (seasonal and with current Fishing Licence), and big open night skies for astronomy enthusiasts. We are a small farming enterprise and currently establishing aquaculture (yabby) ponds and can offer an introductory tour to those who are interested.
The hut sleeps two but there is plenty of room for those who wish to bring a camper trailer or van or pitch a tent. As a working property, you may need to navigate around the odd cow pat!
We do ask that you carefully read our rules (see link) to avoid any conflict with neighbouring properties or our attempts at retaining a relatively undisturbed, healthy river environment and not to impact upon our surrounding community.

Weekend Trip to Oakenville Farm, Nundle
Loved this beautiful stay. Rachel was very accommodating and provided everything that we needed and more. The puppies and chickens were a bonus we loved them and the whole vibe of the property. They’ve really made the place feel magical.

Absolutely lovely camp site that we would definitely recommend! There's no designated spots, but we were lucky as there was only us and one other set of campers that were there for the night, and the site is big enough that we were far away from each other and never heard them (or could even see them as we set our camp up facing the water). The site was beautiful, with so many birds around (and the odd rogue cow that came to say hello), with an amazing sunset as a bonus. I'd definitely book a stay here again!

We had a great stay at Debrah’s. The paddock was well kept and we loved our view over the landscape, watching the flocks of birds. We were lucky to have a clear still night under an amazing canopy of stars. Incredible!
The two flushing toilets were clean and well maintained.
Debrah showed us the goats a their week old kids, so adorable.

We absolutely loved staying at Sheffield farm, would have loved to stay longer. Our daughter was excited to meet the cats, pony's, chicken and baby goats. The owners were very helpful and provided an extension lead so we could camp a little further out from the other campers. Would recommend!!

Nice relaxing spot right in the lake. The field is full of prickles but on the flat area where the camp spot is there is a lot less. The lake is stunning, full of swans, ducks & turtles. We even had a few fish jumping out in front of us.
The communication from the host was good but the instructions to the campsite were average. We had to confirm the exact spot with the host as the GPS pin was not near the campsite.

Where to go
Western Tablelands
Rolling farmlands and vineyards stretch north and west of Tamworth. Stop by the gold rush towns of Barraba and Bingara, camp out by Copeton Lake, or go hiking in the Horton Falls National Park. Further afield, hike or mountain bike through the volcanic landscapes of Mount Kaputar National Park, or cool off with a dip in the Rocky Creek Glacial Area.
Eastern Tablelands
East of Tamworth, wild rivers and forested gorges blanket the landscapes, and there are seven national parks within reach. Hike through World Heritage-listed Gondwana rainforest in the Oxley Wild Rivers National Park, explore off-road in a 4WD in the Carrai National Park, or pitch your tent at remote campgrounds in the Mummel Gulf National Park.
Nundle
Just south of Tamworth, dive into Australia’s gold rush history in Nundle, take in the views from the Hanging Rock Lookout, or go trout fishing along the creeks. Nearby, Lake Keepit is an idyllic spot for campers, where you can swim, fish, and enjoy water sports in the summer months.
When to go
Tamworth is undoubtedly a festival town, and it’s worth timing your visit for one of its famous events. The Tamworth Country Music Festival is held in January, but there’s also the Hats Off To Country Music Festival in July, the Australian Stock Horse National Show in March, and the Taste Tamworth foodie festival in April. Just book your campsite well in advance—the small city can get crowded at these times.
Know before you go
- Tamworth has bus links to the surrounding towns, but you’ll need your own vehicle to explore the tablelands and national parks.
- Tamworth has a selection of shops where you can pick up camping gear and stock up on supplies.
- Fire bans are common in New South Wales during summer and dry periods, so check local recommendations before lighting a fire.
- A permit is required to camp within NSW’s national parks, and campsites must be booked in advance.
Nearby attractions
- Well worth the visit for those camping near the Peel Valley, Chaffey Dam is an engineering marvel surrounded by pristine parkland.
- An historic venue and an interesting tale in revival, the Tamworth Showgrounds have evolved over the last century to be the impressive event space that it is today.
