8.5km from Mount Pleasant · 1 site · Tent, RV
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.

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.

Escape to the wide-open beauty of Y R Station, a remote outback retreat on a historic pastoral property in South Australia. Set against vast plains and endless skies, this camp offers a genuine taste of station life — perfect for those seeking peace, solitude, and a connection with the land. At Y R Station, you’ll feel the freedom of wide horizons. The campsite invites you to slow down, sit by a campfire under brilliant stars, and immerse yourself in the quiet rhythms of nature. Wildlife may visit, and the landscape shifts with the light, giving you a front-row seat to the raw beauty of the outback. Whether you’re arriving in a 4WD, towing, or backpacking in, you’ll find space to spread out and set up camp. This is not just a stopover; it’s a place to rest deeply, reflect, and recharge far from city noise. Basic amenities are available, and camping is low-impact to preserve the pristine environment. For adventurers and explorers, Y R Station is a gateway. Head out on station tracks, walk naturally across the scrub, or simply explore the land quietly by foot. Sunset and sunrise feel monumental here, with sweeping views and soft light that lingers. At night, the darkness is real: no bright lights to dilute the Milky Way — just the constellations, your fire, and a gentle breeze. This makes it a magical spot for star gazing or quiet contemplation. Come to Y R Station to experience the outback at its most honest: raw, peaceful, and unforgettable. It’s a rustic retreat for wild hearts and still souls alike.
