66km from Benalla · 4 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging · Wunghnu, VIC
🌿 Property Description: Creekside Nature & Wellness Sanctuary Welcome to Creekside Nature & Wellness Sanctuary — a peaceful patch of land in Wunghnu, where the creek flows gently, frogs sing at dusk, and nature invites you to slow down and come home to yourself. This is not a caravan park or luxury resort. It’s something softer, simpler, and soul-filled — a place for deep rest, barefoot mornings, and quiet reconnection with the land. You’ll find: • Trees, birdsong, and friendly visits from owls, possums, and foxes • A herb and veggie garden you're welcome to forage from • Outdoor seating, shady spots for reading or resting, and seasonal campfires • Easy access to public toilets (cleaned twice daily) • The Wunghnu café, tavern, and the region’s cheapest fuel — just a 2-minute stroll away • Occasional highway noise — softened by the sound of creek water and wildlife 🌾 Optional Experience: Join a paddock-to-plate Organic Regenerative Farm Tour. Walk the land, meet the growers, and discover where your food comes from. Fresh produce is available for purchase. (Ask for pricing and availability.) You're invited to come just as you are — and leave with a little more of yourself.
