Whitefield Farm was originally settled by the Landers family in the 1890. It is located in the Barossa Ranges 450 m above sea level and is surrounded by vineyards and grazing properties. There is easy access to boutique wineries and the Kidman Trail runs right by the farm, allowing for hiking, riding, and driving, on miles of country tracks. There are stunning views wherever you look, with huge 400-year-old red gums, rolling pastures and ancient gnarled vines. Whitefield is a working farm that focuses on herd rotation and low input agriculture to build the fertile soils and maintain the environment without chemical inputs.
The farm is situated in the heart of the high-altitude Eden Valley Winegrowing region, so we really do have the best of everything, with the stunning views & peaceful surroundings of the farm, to wineries, restaurants, cafes, and the quaint country towns of the Barossa Valley only ten minutes’ drive from our front gate.
Visit the neighbouring boutique wineries including, Poonawatta, Brockenchack, Shobbrook Wines, Heathvale Wines, Rileys of Eden Valley and Max and Me Winery or bush walk in the nearby Kaiser Stuhl Conservation Park.
After a day of touring the region or walking the Kidman Trail, make sure you're back in time to set up your campfire and watch the sun go down with a glass of cool Eden Valley Riesling.

Nestled between the Adelaide Hills and the Barossa Valley, Humble Farm offers a picturesque country setting where you can pull up your caravan or pitch your tent. Set on 100 acres of open rolling hills with pockets of ancient gums and rocky outcrops, the property is alive with wildlife — think kangaroos, eagles, echidnas, hares, frogs, and butterflies.
Camp alongside Saunders Creek (which flows in winter), in the shadow of historic ruins, and across from Humble Farm’s newly established orchard. Enjoy a large fire pit during the cooler months (strictly April to October).
Humble Farm lies within an International Dark Sky Reserve, treating guests to some of the clearest views of the night sky and its constellations. Young children can enjoy the playground — complete with a sandpit and water pump, cubby house, swings, and monkey bars — just a short walk up the hill from the campsite.
The main residence is over the hill on the opposite side of the property, ensuring privacy. Only one site is offered per night to maintain peace and serenity (if you’re traveling with others, enquire about multiple sites at a discounted rate). There is no toilet or shower block — public toilets are a 10-minute drive away if you don’t have your own setup. No potable water is available. As this is a working farm, dogs are welcome but must remain on a long lead. No motorbikes, please.
Conveniently located just 10 minutes from Mount Pleasant (home of the Mount Pleasant Farmers’ Market) and 10 minutes from Springton (home of the historic Herbig Family Tree), Humble Farm is an ideal base for exploring.
Spend an afternoon in the cafés of Lobethal or Woodside, sample the best of the Barossa high country at its many cellar doors, or venture to the Riverland — all within a 25-minute drive. If it’s tranquility you seek, set out on foot along the nearby Lavender Federation Trail or explore the backroads by bike and connect with the Kidman Trail.

Such a lovely peaceful place. Despite being closish to the house, I never heard anything other than birds and animals. It was as if I was in the middle of nowhere.
Gillian was very friendly and went out of her way to accomodate me. Will definitely visit again.

Absolutely fantastic, well away from any noise except nature. A big open firepit is available if you choose to use it during off peak fire season. The drive through the property to the camp site was clearly marked and the grass had been cut down to allow for low vehicle access. Plenty of good walks around. The night sky is absolutely phenomenal with stargazing a must try!
The nearest town has a pub, bakery and public toilet if you need a quick stop off!

Excellent communication and information from Neil and Deb. The property was easy to find and just stunning. Lots level areas to park, with plenty of space between campers (if everyone is considerate that is). Great spaces to catch solar and handy for all things to see on the peninsula. We had a full day driving to the west coast via Yankalilla (fab kebabs and fish n chips), then a lovely walk at Second Valley and plenty of other stops. Another day head east to Goolwa, Middleton (fab bakery) and Port Elliot. 7 minutes from Victor Harbour and you could spend a day there too. I would recommend Bunny Beach over a caravan park for the space and peaceful location. Thanks Deb and Neil.

We had a great weekend at Bunny Beach Farm Stay. There are lots of flat open camp spaces and plenty of room to spread out. We set our vans near the creek and tree line which is very picturesque. There are some huge flat spaces created by Neil that give plenty of options for setup. We spoke with Neil and he is a great host and top bloke. Great spot that is pet friendly and also able to have a comfort fire (in self supplied fire pit). We will be back.

We camped at Bunny Beach this weekend with family and it was such a perfect camp spot. There was heaps of space and campsite options, all levelled and taking in the beautiful scenery. Victor Harbor is a short drive away if you need anything, but you feel like you’re in the middle of the bush. Neil was a great host - really friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back again!
