Lovely spot. Our kids loved the visits from the cows! We decided to leave early due to freezing and wet weather, and they kindly refunded us a night despite that not being their cancellation policy.

Highly recommend! Absolutely unreal view. Host supplied sticks to get fire started and a nights worth of wood to burn Massive paddock to choose where to camp in means that other guests were far enough away to ensure privacy within your own camp. Camp under the trees for shade or middle of paddock for maximum Grampians view

We took our camper trailer and our bull terrier to Hampton Park. I don't know what to say except we have stayed in almost 30 different Hip Camp sites and this is by far one of our favourites. The beautiful, well maintained and gorgeously presented sites, went well beyond our expectations. The views, the hosts and the whole stay was just wonderful. If we're ever travelling through Warrnambool again, I already know where will be staying. We would 100% recommend Hampton Park.

We had a wonderful time at Hampton Park! The hosts were so understanding about our car troubles - resulting in us arriving after dark (they assisted in guiding us into the site) and then departing late (as our car wouldn't start). The hosts were very understanding and helpful. The site is beautiful, on a lovely lawn amoungst lovely trees are overlooking paddocks. No koala spotting for us, but our daughter very much enjoyed chatting to the cockatoo and playing in the playground. Thanks for a great stay, we hope to return again!

The photos on hipcamp didn't do David's picturesque property justice. You have to visit to appreciate the beauty that the campsite is set on. David met us and took us to our campsite and gave us some local spots to visit during our stay. If you are looking for a peaceful holiday surrounded by nature this is the place for you. We met the pet sheep,alpacas, Galloway's, chooks and the gorgeous puppy Levi. David's hospitality was above and beyond, he invited us to the homestead to collect some eggs and gave us a guided historical tour of the homestead, stables and the old school. After a stormy night he came to check on us to make sure we were ok. We will definitely be back again.

My extended family camped in caravans on grass amongst beautiful gum trees right at the waters edge. We had four kayaks all parked on the sandy launch point, the river was calm with no passing water traffic. Plenty of free wood for our camp-fire easily gathered. Such a peaceful place. We also had a lovely yoga class in an amazing yoga studio on the property.

Weekend Trip to Redmans View

Redmans View was the perfect off-grid base for our family to stay and explore the Grampians. Quiet and well-maintained land with stunning views. Loved the fire pit provided with a generous supply of firewood. Was also great being able to arrive at any time and choose any location to set up camp.
