Camp on our working cattle farm, 10 minutes from Warrnambool. Drive down the tree lined all weather road and set up in our flat grassy campsite. Keep an eye out for koalas in the trees and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. It's a great spot to relax and unwind.

Situated on the banks of the Glenelg River. Mount Yulong is a third generation family farm, running mostly merino sheep. We are only a few kilometres from the Rocklands Wall and boat ramp, as well as being similar distance into Balmoral. Our campsite offers peace and quiet, great views and of course great fishing opportunities.

47km from Hamilton · 1 site · Tent, RV

Situated in a unique valley of Native flora and fauna with short hikes to 2 plateaus to take in breathtaking 360 degree views of the Grampians National Park (Gariwerd). This is a private oasis on re-vegetated land in secluded bushland. The property has been in existence since the 1870’s as a working farm producing some of the finest Merino wool in the world. Our wool is produced ethically and sustainably and is sourced by the Italian Woollen Mills to produce fine quality fashion. Our secret is the land and our nurturing of it and our sheep. We want to share our piece of paradise with campers who treat our land the way we do. Note: The creek and spring run in winter and spring—enjoy walking along the creek line under the Red Gums.

4. The OASIS on Grampians Station

80km from Hamilton · 1 site · Lodging

The Oasis at Grampians station farm is your very own private glamping experience. Nestled in an open woodland and overlooking a tranquil ornamental lake, a daily hub of activity for local birds and animal life. Beautiful views of the grampians range. This truly is the place to stop, unwind and take in the wilderness with no one in sight. Let the frogs chant you to sleep at night and the birds sing you awake in the morning.

This is a beautiful spot to camp! Surrounded on all sides by forest and hills I would definitely recommended Noor’s place. Very private camp spot and nice walks all around. A simple walk up the hills to see a panorama of the Grampians and local eagles. Noor was a lovely host. Definitely planning another trip here.

The paddock is lovely and peaceful. Rob helped talk us through, as Google maps sent us incorrect information. The driveway is pretty much opposite number 429.

This was my second time visiting this beautiful part of the world, and it was even better than the first. Complete privacy, a warm greeting from Noor and a space surrounded by the sounds of birds and frogs. It is great being able to bring our dog and to have the added convenience of the camp bathroom. We can’t wait to come back.

Incredible place with gorgeous natural surroundings. Noor made us feel right at home and made for a seemless camping experience. Super private with only the sounds of the local wildlife around you. Would definitely stay again.

Daniel has an amazing space he is allowing those fortunate enough to get out there use. I would love to keep it to our selves and ensure its always available, but, Daniel deserves the patronage as it is a perfect slice of paradise with noone else around but the birds, sheep and wildlife. This time of year the photos just don't do it justice, it is lush, green and perfect for a winter/spring escape, in summer it would be perfect for a dip on those warm days. The space is flat and plenty of room away from the gums for those worried about widow makers. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect long weekend away. Thank you again Daniel. Mathew and Melissa.

Some real Aussie bush camping with the dogs and van in tow. Best 4 days and a never ending fire for cold made it easy staying out at night looking up at the milky way. Drive down to site is easy with our 8m semi off road, we've had more pins in van parks. Great for bush golf. Thanks again mate was great.

Lovely host and great spot. Rob was very helpful and took time out to show us his cattle and give them a feed of apples. Paddock is flat and was lovely and quiet. Highly recommend. Thanks Rob.

I had a beautiful weekend at Noor’s! Such a stunning spot to watch the sun rise over the mountains, and extra special to have it all to myself. Was lovely meeting Noor on arrival, and I felt very safe as a solo female traveller! Portaloo set up was very clean too. Would definitely recommend and would love to come back for another visit :-)
