Your choice of your very own 10 acres of pasture, although you will have to share it with wallabies, bandicoots, a variety of birds and the occasional echidna.

We had a great time camping on Luke's property. The paddock where the campsites are are easily accessible for 2WD cars and have a nice view of surrounding paddocks with cows, birds and wallabies hanging around. It's nice that we can bring our dog too. Also only a 5 min drive into Cowes. Looking forward to coming back!

We had a perfect stay at Warburton Holiday Park. It is an excellent camp ground, with easy access to the river for a relaxing float downstream. The amenities were all clean and well equipped and the town & great old pub just a short drive away.
We'll be back soon!

Anne-Maree was a wonderful host and made our stay feel easy and relaxed from the moment we arrived. She was generous with her time, quick to help with any questions or small issues, and genuinely cared that we had a great experience. Everything was thoughtfully set up and well looked after. We’re very grateful for her hospitality and would happily stay again.

Everything is as described, flat site with shade if required. Waterhole is amazing, it was hot so well needed. Lucy was a delight and very welcoming, appreciated the updates on smokeshaze from distant fires.
Wouldn't recommend towing out of the sites without a 4x4,.
Overall very pleased with our stay and would certainly recommend.

We loved camping at Green Gully - what a lovely part of the world! Luke’s hospitality was brilliant, he shared local insights and recs, and we loved trying out his beers. There was only 1 other group camping so we had so much space and there was lots of wildlife to spot. A real ‘at one with nature’ spot. Onsite toilet was great, much better than other campsites we’ve visited on our travels. Would highly recommend staying here!

Lovely location with a great host. You can enjoy a beer in the host's own small brewery. You can observe wallabies, geese and other animals. If you want, you can feed the farm's rooster. During our stay, there were also two extremely cute dogs. We really enjoyed our stay.

Lovely property ! Richie was great in accomodating us, even when we turned up a day early for our booking (my bad!). Each group had an entire paddock to themself which made it a relaxing experience. We headed to the winery next door for an afternoon pizza and wine which was lovely.
Would definitely stay again!
