Shops etc is only a 5 minute drive away and there’s a bistro/tavern just down the road if you want to grab dinner or a drink. Thank you Sam for being a wonderful host, we enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back.

Lovely scenic quiet spot. Area has not had a lot of rain thus there was not a lot of water for swimming. We are city slickers - there were 2 horses hanging by a 3 way gate. We were not experienced enough to know that those horses were hanging around specifically to get entry to another paddock. My husband did not shoo them away and opened the gate & one bolted through. We were embarrassed but the owner was understanding. Lesson learned. No network connection which was perfect.

Great relaxing spot where you feel like you are the only one there. Toilets and shower available are an incredible add on but the most amazing are the stunning horses that would come visit us. The hosts are super welcoming & lovely people. We are so glad you chose to spend our long weekend at Gleneden Farm ☺️

Carol was lovely and showed us to an ever nicer campsite than we’d booked - Kent’s Pocket. The clear running creek there was absolutely gorgeous and campsite is private. It’s not flat though. We did have to level the camper quite a bit. We will be returning!

Spacious secluded spot in nature. The bathtub is a fun quirk that makes it even more memorable.

“Lovers Lane” was such a great campsite, meters to a running creek with crystal clear water.
About 200 meters down the creek theres a small waterfall with a natural slide into a waterhole which was great fun, excellent suggestion from the host to check it out.
Great spot, i will be back!

What a great spot. Was very well maintained. Plenty of room, we even flew our kite. Enjoyed cooking on the plate above the fire. And even has table and chairs under a cover. And had a magical view of the stars. Would recommend to anyone looking for a private spot that's well maintained.
