Welcome to Tranquil Valley Noosa, The peaceful hobby farm located in the beautiful Noosa Hinterland. 📸Insta: @tranquilvalleynoosa With rolling hills, tall pine trees and a variety of wildlife, this nature haven is the perfect place to relax, reconnect and soak in the peace and calm of this beautiful land. The farm is home to more than 70 animals (All have names) including dwarf goats, cows, chickens and miniature pigs, and our guests often have the chance to see cute baby animals up close! During the day you can enjoy a walk through the pine forest, and in the afternoon experience the incredible sunset vistas from our hill or from the luxurious outdoor bath. By night, sit by the firepit and gaze up at the stars while listening to the sounds of nature on the fig tree swinging chair. The outdoor bathtub is available for hire for the evening with prior notice, and will come with beautiful dried flowers, natural bath salts charged at $60 per use. We recommend our guests bring swimmers for the bath. During your stay you will have access to our outdoor shower and composting toilet with a view. These facilities are shared by 1 other person or if another camper stays, and we kindly request that our guests are mindful of water consumption as we are on tank water. Connection of power and water is an option for extra. Our campsites are also dog friendly as we love having your fur babies visit! However if you are bringing your furry companions with you, please ensure they are friendly with other dogs, kept on a lead and supervised at all times, as our baby chickens and miniature pigs like to explore during the day along with my dog who will constantly want to be around. Ready to explore outside the Farm? We’re just a short drive to Eumundi, Pomona or Cooroy for cute shops and markets, or venture 25 minutes to Noosa for a day at the beach and a variety of quality restaurants.

4. Vander Farm

57km from Maroochydore · 4 sites · Tents, RVs

Tucked away on a small hobby farm backing directly onto Sheep Station Conservation Park, this is a peaceful, down-to-earth spot for guests who enjoy nature just as it is. You’ll be sharing the property with a handful of characterful residents — four sheep, a friendly alpaca, three silky chickens, two cheeky geese, and a very elderly Muscovy duck — plus our three young boys, who bring plenty of life and laughter to the place. This is a simple, relaxed farm stay with a rustic feel — a little scruffy around the edges and refreshingly free of bells and whistles. It’s a great place to slow down, enjoy the outlook, and soak up the natural surroundings. Pets are welcome but must be kept on a leash at all times due to the animals and surrounding conservation area. Guests must be fully self-contained and bring their own toilet. A fire pit is available for your use, with firewood provided, making it a lovely spot to unwind in the evenings. Please note that the dam is more for scenery than swimming.

We love staying at Paul's hipcamp. Directions were clear, Paul was friendly and accommodating, the sites were private and the facilities clean. The caravan was gorgeous, overlooking the creek, with lots of bird life. Hot outdoor shower was an unexpected bonus! We would definitely come back and stay. Thanks for having us!

I think this is the perfect camping spot, either for a romantic getaway with your partner or for a solo camping trip. I can’t think of a better place to have a beautiful, romantic picnic while watching the sunset. The views are stunning, it’s an easy drive to get there, the host, Tommy, is really welcoming, and it’s nice to meet the person behind such a beautiful project. Trees, goats, cows, birds, an outdoor bath, a romantic picnic, a beautiful sunset, loo/shower with a view, stargazing. It has everything!! I had an extremely joyful and peaceful experience.

We had a truly peaceful three-day stay in the most beautiful, tranquil setting. I stayed here with my teenage kids and we all loved it, but honestly, this place would be perfect for a romantic getaway. The views are absolutely stunning…even the toilet had spectacular scenery, which says it all! The outdoor shower was a real highlight, feeling completely immersed in nature while still being very comfortable and private. The animals added so much joy to our stay. The goats were hilarious and full of personality, the chickens and guinea pigs were a delight, and of course Max the dog completely stole our hearts and kept us entertained the entire time. This is the kind of place where you instantly slow down, breathe deeper, and feel grateful to be there. We left feeling refreshed and already dreaming about coming back — next time, just the adults 💛

It was so peaceful! The waterhole was a blessing and the area was just gorgeous. Paul welcomed me and gave me the lay of the land and obviously loves his very special spot. It was just me so I picked a small site but a couple of the others look fabulous for a bigger group.

We received a very warm welcome from Paul who maintains the sites perfectly. We stayed at site 4 which was huge and I think the best pick. Access to this site is a tight squeeze and I wouldn’t take a trailer. Plenty of room for you and your mates in a 4wd though. We’ll add that the loo was the cleanest we’ve ever seen. 5/5

Such a beautiful stay ♥️ Such a nice way to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of everyday. The most beautiful views, surrounded by nature and very cute and friendly animals. The grounds are taken such good care of and the space feels luxurious with the gardens, fire pits, arches and lighting. The owner, his son and dog are all amazing and so friendly!
