This is a lovely camp site with fantastic views. I would highly recommend this site to someone who is new to camping or enjoys camping with with a view of the valley

Weekend Trip to Canoelands Orchard Camping

We enjoyed our winter stay, fire pits available great to keep you warm and roast some marshmallows or mini Krankies a new treat for our lot. amble variety of fruit and veg to walk through and pick. very popular for the day trippers, The camping space was adequate, absolutely massive, allows you have large groups and or set up away camp from other campers for a little privacy. safe for kids and toddlers, with entertainment of farm animals and tractor rides only one shower but if you book, it works out well, it is a bit of a walk to amenities, nice stroll under the moon light or short drive if you don't have other options in your camp set up. amble variety of fruit and veg to walk through and pick. very popular for the day trippers, we will be looking forward to booking again for the summer fruits

Weekend Trip to Quorragami

What. A. Spot. An amazing weekend on an absolutely beautiful property. Sites were fantastic, the toilets were always clean and tidy and the sunrises and sunsets and something special. We will definitely be back! Charly was always super helpful and an all round great host.

Weekend Trip to Quorragami

The sites are lovely and big. The amenities were clean and fantastic. The views are just beautiful. Charly was always around, checking in to make sure our stay was great and we didn't need anything. Was great to be able to take out fury friend along, was very pet friendly. Can't wait to come back and stay again ❤️

Weekend Trip to Quorragami

Beautiful location, top-notch management, and incredibly welcoming hosts! The site is well-maintained, peaceful, and perfect for relaxation or adventure. The hosts go above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. Highly recommended!

Weekend Trip to Quorragami

Got a warm welcome from the host with clear instructions about the site. The host was very supportive, and the facilities were awesome, which were mentioned for this site. They had a nice walking track around the site. Spent a good time with family and friends.

Weekend Trip to Quorragami

We had a fantastic stay at the RV3 camping spot. The site itself was quiet, spacious, and offered a peaceful atmosphere that made it easy to relax and unwind. Even though the weather was quite chilly during our visit, having a fire made it feel warm and cosy — it really added to the experience. The hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. A special mention goes to the toilet facilities — they were spotless every time we used them, which is such a bonus when camping. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely recommend RV3 to anyone looking for a quiet, well-kept place to camp with a great atmosphere and excellent hospitality.

Weekend Trip to Quorragami

Charley and Damien’s farm was absolutely perfect. We thoroughly enjoyed our time, even though short. Charley personally welcomed us and was so friendly. Facilities were great. The whole camp had a nice communal feel and it was great to see all the kids running around and having fun. We stayed on site 14, which was located further from the other camps, but had a lovely element of privacy and tree screening. We also found it more sheltered from the elements compared to the sites up on the ridge above the canyon. We brought our own wood, however found lots of pieces on the ground to use also. We will definitely stay again, if in the area.

Weekend Trip to Quorragami

We loved camping at Quorragami over the June long weekend. The views were incredible and we got to enjoy the most beautiful sunsets! Facilities were great, very clean and well maintained. Charly was a wonderful host and made sure to come around and check in to see that everything was ok. If you use Waze for directions, be careful, as it’ll send you down Mill Lane when you put the address in. I’d suggest putting Barraba Lane in to your search instead as that will take you to the right place. We will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Cranky Rock Hunter Valley

We had a fantastic weekend camping at *Cranky Rock*! The campsites are spacious and thoughtfully laid out, giving you plenty of room and privacy from other campers. The toilets were clean and conveniently located throughout the property. While the shower wasn’t accessible during our stay, it didn’t take away from the overall experience. It’s clear that a lot of care goes into maintaining the grounds. We loved the friendly cows and their calves, and even spotted a sleepy wombat. Another big plus is the location — only 10 minutes from Wollombi Tavern, which is perfect for an arvo beer or a meal out. A special thank you to Pam and Lindsay, who were both incredibly friendly and welcoming. They greeted us on arrival and kindly guided us to our site, making everything easy and stress-free. Would absolutely recommend Cranky Rock to anyone looking for a peaceful and well-kept camping spot. Thanks again for a lovely weekend!

We had a fantastic time camping at Canoelands Orchard. The site was beautiful and there was lots to do.

4 nights at Quorragami

Weekend Trip to Quorragami

loved our stay at this campsite! The drive in was beautiful — scenic and easy to navigate, setting the tone for a relaxing weekend. The site itself was incredibly peaceful, surrounded by nature and a great variety of wildlife. We spotted kangaroos, and the nice sounds of the birds. Toilet facilities were clean and well-maintained, which made a big difference. It’s a great spot to unwind, disconnect, and enjoy the outdoors. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet escape in nature.

Weekend Trip to Quorragami

I had originally booked RV3 but decided to move to the unallocated campsite due to a large group booked next to me. Charly happily accommodated my request to move so I could have some quiet time 🙂 The property is beautiful and peaceful. Flushing toilets were clean and easily accessible along with handwashing facilities outside the toilets. Beautiful scenery and very tidy. Lots of sticks and wood for campfire. I look forward to returning. Thank you for having me !

Weekend Trip to Quorragami

The campsite was really lovely, with great views and nice amenities. Would definitely return!

Camping near Toowoon Bay guide

Overview

A dramatic triangle of golden sands sweep out into the Pacific Ocean at Toowoon Bay, which sits between Sydney and Newcastle along NSW’s Central Coast. Just down the coast from The Entrance, Toowoon Bay is the ideal getaway for campers looking to escape the crowds. Surfing, snorkelling, and stand-up paddleboarding are the most popular activities at the town’s two beaches—Pretty Blue Bay Beach and Little Bay Beach—while nearby Wyrrabalong National Park has miles of bushwalking trails, coastal fishing, and seasonal whale-watching. Just north of Toowoon Bay, Tuggerah Lake is a hub for water sports and pelican-watching, and the best views are from the Long Jetty Foreshore Reserve. You’ll find Hipcamps dotted throughout surrounding towns, or else check in to a caravan park or holiday park along the lakeshore, at Toowoon Bay Beach, or Shelly Beach‌. Most provide powered sites with access to a camp kitchen, free wifi, and a dump point.
