A lovely spot to stay, spacious, drive through sites. The amenities were very well kept, nice and clean. I enjoyed the morning birdsong, and a walk through the treed area full of birds. The groundsmen do a fabulous job watering keeping the place green.

I absolutely loved the Valley Views campsite and it was such a peaceful location. Had the cows and new calves visit me one morning which was extra special. Laura and Neil were very friendly and took me up to the campsite. Unfortunately there were a lot of thunderstorms around each night so left a day earlier than anticipated but intend on coming back when the weather has settled.

Weekend Trip to Bunya Red Farm

Mandy and Alan were very welcoming. They greeted us on arrival, gave us the lay of the land and the rundown on the amenities. About 4ish, Alan came dosn and rounded up the 4 kids and whisked them off into the next yard to feed the alpacas. Unfortunately we got rained out and couldn't stay the planned two nights, but the kids had a ball mucking about in the rain and chasing the frogs about. The amenities are fantastic - best campground shower I've ever had. The kitchen area is well-configured and we found anything we hsd forgotten to pack was probably in there. I'm definitely keen to stay again, hopefully during some cooler and more predictable weather.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Hillcrest Farm. Just minutes from Toowoomba, this peaceful 20-acre property is the good blend of rustic charm, wide open space. We arrived; we felt completely at ease. The land is mostly flat, making it easy to set up camp, with plenty of shady spots under the trees or open paddocks with breathtaking 360-degree views. The sunsets are stunning best enjoyed around one of the many fire pits. There’s plenty of space, so even when other campers are around, it still feels private. The central area and rear paddocks are ideal for families or small groups, and there's easy access to water. Definitely, book again
