Hi there and welcome to my home, Penzance! I fell in love with this slice of heaven in 2010 and adore every back breaking inch of it. It was an overgrown mess at the time, covered in broken bricks and beer cans. I've tried to keep the bush aspect whilst creating a park-like surround with plenty of grassy space. I have big plans for this land and hope to build a steam museum in another area over the creek. Excitingly, I will also be establishing a blacksmiths forge in that area, which was moved piece by piece from an historic farm at Avoca. Chris is an engineer, antique restorer and artisan working from home.
I offer one site so privacy is assured. Larger groups can be accommodated, please enquire if you'd like to learn more.
I look forward to welcoming you to PENZANCE.
*Please be aware that we require a two night minimum stay, but please contact me about single night stays, especially on week-days.

The waterfall is reached by a single trail track from the campsite, and you do need to be an experienced hiker to get to the waterfall. Which is part of the appeal!
We welcome self-contained campers, who bring their own toilet and take all waste with them. We have a strict Leave No Trace policy.
Or choose to stay in our beautiful A-frame cabin, with plush bedding, cozy fire, and outdoor lounge. More than anything else this is a place to relax and be away from normal, live outside yourself, and rediscover what weekends are for.
Dogs are welcome, so long as they don't bother the wildlife.
Campfires are allowed, BYO firewood or campers can collect fallen timber from the property.

Hi there and welcome to my home, Penzance! I fell in love with this slice of heaven in 2010 and adore every back breaking inch of it. It was an overgrown mess at the time, covered in broken bricks and beer cans. I've tried to keep the bush aspect whilst creating a park-like surround with plenty of grassy space. I have big plans for this land and hope to build a steam museum in another area over the creek. Excitingly, I will also be establishing a blacksmiths forge in that area, which was moved piece by piece from an historic farm at Avoca. Chris is an engineer, antique restorer and artisan working from home.
I offer one site so privacy is assured. Larger groups can be accommodated, please enquire if you'd like to learn more.
I look forward to welcoming you to PENZANCE.
*Please be aware that we require a two night minimum stay, but please contact me about single night stays, especially on week-days.

What a beautiful spot. Jumped in the car for a lovely time at Ocean Grove dog beach, enjoyed lunch at Flying Brick, and relaxed around the campsite for the afternoon. Nice big open space for the kids and dog to play. The toilet was a nice facility to have (clean and well looked after). And Madge was lovely - friendly and helpful, while also allowing us to have our space. We will be back Madge - cheers!

This was such a charming little place to stop over, with well-kept facilities, hosted by the very friendly Victoria and her two adorable dogs. Our own pups loved the large expanse of walking and sniffing space around the property. It was a very interesting experience waking up to the sound of a thousand birds early in the morning, which ceased ever so quickly, almost as soon as they started, but it was otherwise was a quiet and restful place to put up a tent and tuck in for the night - or sit under her gazebo for a drink before :)

First off, Paul is an absolute gentleman and was easy to deal with. His hospitality was above and beyond. The campsite and amenities were great, clean showers and flush toilets, although we didn’t use the BBQ, there was one there. The camp sites were very spacious, could easily fit multi people/tents setups. It was a very peaceful stay and enjoyed the scenery, especially with the occasional visits from the goats. Also, about a 20 minute drive to Ballarat. Highly recommend the camp to anyone thinking of it. Would definitely stay again. Thank you again Paul to you and your family.

Could not say enough good things about our experience at lancefield lakes - our friend’s tent broke and Jem kindly lent us one of theirs, saving the trip. The toilets are very clean and well maintained and there a lot of space between sites. They were also very generous with the firewood. 10/10.
