Some important points to note:
• There is open water on the block and easy access to the cove so no toddlers please.
• Toilet/disposal facilities are not provided so you will need to be self-contained.
• While a fire pit is provided please bring your own wood (or we can provide some for $TBC per bag). The collection of fallen timber is not allowed.
• Please do not feed food scraps to the local wildlife as this can seriously affect their health. Bags of wallaby/potoroo pellets are provided but no more than one bag per evening, please.
• Drinking water is provided but comes from our house tank so please use it sparingly.
• Our house overlooks the campsite but we are a quiet retired couple, who will respect your privacy, and won’t bother you unless you need help or advice. We ask that you respect our privacy in return.
