39km from Tathra · 11 sites · Tents, Lodging · Wyndham, NSW

We purchased our 200-acre property after it was heavily impacted by the Summer 2019/20 bushfires. As newcomers to farming, we’re learning what it means to live and work on the land. The property came with a flock of sheep—who continue to teach us new things every day—and we share the farm with our incredibly friendly kelpie, Sage. We’re keen to move toward organic farming, do our part for the environment, and embrace a more sustainable lifestyle. We grow herbs and vegetables, tend a small collection of fruit trees, and are excited to plant many more. We’ve fallen in love with farm life and hope our property becomes a place of learning, enjoyment, and shared experiences. So Good Farm is located 25 minutes west of Pambula Beach on the Sapphire Coast. Surrounded by trees and rich with wildlife, the property features a creek running through it and a spring-fed dam. There are plenty of walking tracks across the hilly landscape, offering stunning views from various points—especially from the peak, for those willing to take on the climb. The property also borders a national park. The nearest town is just five minutes away, where you’ll find food supplies and fuel.

Weekend Trip to So Good Farm

We had a wonderful time staying at the So Good Farm. Bec and Stuart were wonderful hosts who met us on arrival and made us feel right at home. It was the perfect stop for us on the way back from Sydney to Melbourne. Our A frame cabin was so comfortable and charming and we enjoyed just sitting outside with an open fire after cooking dinner in the beautiful camp kitchen. Our dogs enjoyed the property, too, with a walk around their property, it was so peaceful. We can't wait to come back and spend some more time there.

Loved my stay at the lagoon cabin. Really enjoyed the views from the deck, kangaroos were pretty cool too. Inside the cabin was very clean and everything was provided. Would stay here again if I’m travelling this way.

Honestly one of the most calming and relaxing places me and my boyfriend have stayed in! We got the cabin lodge and we were shocked at how beautiful it was. I wish I could show pictures of the mornings we woke up too. It was just beautiful. Even though this place doesn’t have showers the owners provide you with your own wash bath and clothes so you can bathe. This place was so practical and so calming. We would 100% go back there again!!

So Good farm is such a paradise!! Bec & Stuart are absolute born hosts. They are the most clever DIY geniuses and have a great design eye. We enjoyed our time there immensely. Bed was exceptionally comfy, cabin was private, and we loved the communal atmosphere with other campers in the kitchen area. Was great for us as a long time couple to have some romantic time while also socializing with like minded humans over a NYE bev. Would 10/10 recommend.

The best farm glamping near Tathra guide

Where to go

Mimosa Rocks National Park

Just across Bega River sits Mimosa Rocks National Park, only a 10-minute drive from Tathra. Find holiday parks for tents, camper trailers, and caravans in the area with on-site amenities like picnic tables, BBQ facilities, and toilets. Avid divers can wake up and scuba dive to the Paddle Steamer Mimosa, a shipwreck that lays just off the coast, while beginners can swim, snorkel, and fish in Moon Bay or Nelson Lagoon. Take in the picturesque views from a variety of different headlands, and watch for waterfowl along the shoreline year-round.

Bournda National Park

Found 15 minutes south of Tathra, Bournda National Park abounds with outdoor activities. Kayak the Bournda Lagoon or the waters of Wallagoot Lake before sauntering down Sandy Creek loop track, then keep an eye on the trees for native bird species while walking. Bournda campgrounds welcome swags, tents, camper trailers, and campervans with a range of facilities and amenity blocks with flush toilets, showers, and BBQ areas.

Beowa National Park

The stunning rocky coastline of Beowa National Park sits an hour and a half from Tathra. Take on Boyds Tower walking track, a favourite for beginners, or conquer the multi-day Light to Light walk for experts. History buffs can check out Green Cape Lighthouse, where wildlife watchers can also scan the seas for migrating whales. Campgrounds in the park offer basic amenities, but there are more luxurious accommodations available too. Take a break from the tent and get pampered in a bunkhouse or heated cottage vacation rental with bathrooms, fully equipped kitchens, and fresh linens.

When to go

Every season in Tathra offers something special, which makes it a first-rate choice for year-round camping trips. Feathered friends flock to Mimosa Rocks National Park throughout the year, and if whale watching is top priority, plan to visit in spring between September and November. The hot and humid summers that last from December until March are an ideal time for beach lounging and exploring the waterways in Bournda National Park. Campgrounds will be at peak capacity in summer, so plan ahead and reserve a pitch when possible.
