Loved the views! Shelly & Craig were so kind and offered for us to walk around the property if we wished. The one paddock with 4 spots gives you enough room to spread out and enjoy your site to yourself still. The sunset over the mountains was a cherry on top! We'd definitely stay again in the future.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Canna Vale Farm Stay, hosted by the amazing Shelly and Craig. From the moment we arrived, they made us feel so warm and welcome – nothing was ever too much trouble. We were lucky enough to enjoy a tour around the farm, where we got up close and friendly with the animals, which was such a highlight. The property itself is stunning, with beautiful views in every direction. The location is fantastic and easy to find, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. Shelly and Craig are some of the friendliest and most genuine hosts we’ve ever met, and their passion for what they do shines through. We left feeling relaxed, happy, and already planning our next visit. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We will definitely be back again!

Despite the site being a vacant block between two houses, you can get quite a lot of privacy if you set up a certain way. There's a flat space large enough for a car or camper trailer in front of the fire place, but the rest of the block slopes a fair bit. It's close to the shops, and I can guarantee there are kangaroos close by as one bounded past in the early morning.

Weekend Trip to Ingenia Holidays Phillip Island

We recently stayed at Ingenia Holidays Newhaven, and it was an absolute delight! From the moment we arrived, the check-in process was incredibly smooth and hassle-free, making us feel welcome right away. The park had fantastic amenities for our little boy, keeping him entertained the whole time. The playground and jumping pillow were big hits, and the open spaces gave him plenty of room to run around and explore. One night simply wasn’t enough—we wish we had stayed longer! We’ll definitely be booking again in the future and highly recommend it.
