Dreaming of a retreat in the heart of the Adelaide Hills? Bradbury Nature Retreat is located on a stunning 11 acre property that offers glorious uninterrupted views all the way to Aldinga Beach (just ask the host to show you where you can find this secret view). The property is accessed via a private road so it is incredibly quiet and serene. Instead, get lost in the sound of wild-life all around you! Your campsite is surrounded by native trees and scrub so it’s not unusual to have kangaroos, koalas, and native birds like kookaburras and cockatoos stop by for a visit. Behind your campsite there's an organic fruit orchard where the chickens forage. The property also features paddocks with roaming sheep and an alpaca. Let the host know if you would like a farm tour or to join in feeding the farm animals. We only allow one group on our campsite at a time to ensure you have a peaceful and quiet stay. We are a small, family owned and run hobby farm. Eggs and other farm produce for sale on request when there is surplus. Campfires allowed when restrictions aren't in place (firewood available to buy at our wood stall). To learn more about us follow us on Instagram @bradbury.nature.retreat and don't forget to tag us in your camping photos! Experiences around Bradbury: • Our property is 5km from Warrawong Wildlife Sanctuary, the home to countless Australian native animals and the only place on mainland South Australia where you can see the elusive platypus! • Just a 7-minute drive to both Between the Vines and Deviation Road Winery where you can unwind from a hard week at work with a sophisticated wine and grazing platter whilst surrounded by vineyards and beautiful bushland. • On the main street in Stirling you will find the artisan ice-creamery, chocolate and lolly shop, Hokey Pokey. Our favourite is their house-made ice-cream made with biodynamic dairy and local, seasonal produce! • If you’re looking for somewhere to go for dinner Bradbury isn’t far from the Aldgate Pump Hotel, the Stirling Hotel and the Crafers Hotel, just to name a few. • For the plant lovers, Tupelo Grove Nursery is a 7-minute drive away in the outskirts of Mylor.

Very convenient location if visiting the northern side of Adelaide. Golden Grove, Salisbury and Elizabeth are less than 15 minutes away. Helen and her husband were very accommodating, they have their own dump point and there is a fire pit you can use outside of fire ban season. Starlink had good visibility to the sky and our small dogs had room to run. Would definitely stay again.

Although the park was busy, its location and facilities were very convenient. The park is located between two busy coastal towns on a point with a quaint seaside village within a pushbike ride. The park was impeccably clean and facilities were in great condition with plenty of hot water. The land has access to two beaches and a small bluff to take in the sunset. Room for kids & dogs. Plenty of space to drive through for van and space for the car. Local town had some amazing venues and shops. Surf was plentiful with lots of local breaks. Didn’t really need to deal with the office so not sure on staff assistance. Great spot.

Gooses Pond is a lovely peaceful camp in a large paddock with spectacular views. Sites were well spaced, so quite private. There was a flushing toilet as well as an undercover area to use. Firewood is available to purchase and host Billie-Jo was so helpful and friendly.

My wife and I came for a night away and were amazed by the huge open space! Was great to be able to see the hills, watch the helicopters come and go and even say hello to the cows. Great to see there was a functional toilet to use as we were camping in our swag (I would recommend maybe a light for inside the toilets when it’s dark). Great little shelter provided that we were lucky enough to use for the night to keep out the sun, as we just had our swag set up. Pet friendly was a bonus for us- the dog loved being able to adventure around! We’ll be back for sure, this place is a hidden gem. Thanks Billie-Jo!

A fabulous stay so close to the city. Great site set up, with picturesque outlooks. Friendly owners who came to say hello and made sure we had everything. If all sites are utilised then you would be quite close to others but overall a great clean and tidy set up.

We stayed at campsite 1 , all sites are very pretty. Very well maintained & sheltered by a nice avenue of gums. The property has a pond full of frogs & ducks. Plenty of wildlife to make you feel like you are out in the country. Not 30 minutes from the CBD. Host Helen & her husband are lovely hosts.

In all honesty, when I was first asked to leave a review, my initial thought was no — simply because the place is so good I didn’t want to share the secret with anyone else! In all seriousness though, this spot is absolutely awesome. We had a camper van so we were well set up, but the location itself is what makes it so special — secluded, surrounded by lush green fields, with the most incredible backdrop of the hills. It was peaceful, relaxing, and honestly just sublime. We didn’t know exactly what to expect, but it exceeded every expectation. There’s a little shed that provides shelter plus a toilet that was super clean and actually flushes (I was half-expecting a long drop, so this was a very pleasant surprise!). The host was so friendly and accommodating, which just added to the experience. We’ll 100% be back — in droves next time! If I could offer one small suggestion, it would be to add some comfy seating in the sheltered area — maybe a couch or a few cushioned chairs. We brought our own fire pit and camp chairs, which worked perfectly, but a cozy seating setup would be a really nice bonus. Either way, this place is an absolute gem. Thank you so much for having us — can’t wait to return!

Large, flat and even ground perfect for our family tents. The entire area is enclosed with sheep fence, great if you have dogs (or kids) who like to wander. There is a good sized fire pit. Area is peaceful and very quiet. The owner Georgie’s house is around 60m away which frankly is better than most camp grounds. Georgie and family were very warm and welcoming but respected our space and privacy. The road leading to the property is nice for a stroll, especially if you have dogs. Georgie gifted us a delightful bouquet of flowers which was very sweet. Georgie was responsive to our queries prior to arrival and very helpful and friendly.
