NOTE: ***During Summer- November, December, January and February there are midgees (sandflies) at dusk and dawn and we do recommend midgee screening or spraying the mesh on your caravan windows as the standard mozzie mesh will not keep them out.

*4X4's are recommended if you don't stay along the fence line as it can get muddy if there has been lots of rain. If you stay along the fence line you will be fine as the roads are compact and hard and the camp sites along this fence are higher up, they are marked with Fire Pits so camp here if you want to stay dry and get a good breeze.*

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Stargazers! The cows came to visit and the horses were very friendly and tolerable of our excitable GSD. The full fence is a bonus! We enjoyed the campfire where we cooked a steak dinner. Even in the wind and rain the cabin felt so cosy and well equipped. Avon and Brian are excellent hosts and we hope to be back for a longer stay soon! Many thanks!

The facilities are well‑equipped, and everything is kept in great condition.
Nick, the caretaker, is incredibly friendly and clearly puts a lot of effort into maintaining the place.
Just remember to bring mosquito protection.

This is our second stay at Avon’s and Brian’s beautiful cabin and we loved it just as much as the first time!
As usual, their horses visited us every day and it was nice to have the addition of cattle grazing around us as well.
We cooked our roast lamb and veggies in the camp oven and it was absolutely delicious, thanks to the fresh herbs from the garden.
Avon was a wonderful host as usual and we can’t wait to go back there again!

Love staying here. Second time visiting Stargazers. I last visited with my beautiful dog I had to say goodbye to at the end of last year. Think going to make my yearly ritual to visit here in honour of him because he loved it so much. Great hosts and so peaceful 🧡

We loved our stay, we were lucky enough to have the place to ourselves. A really great spot and the caretaker (nick) was beyond helpful and so knowledgeable. We even caught some yellow belly perch in the dam. Facilities were great. We will definitely be back. Absolutely loved this hip camp.
