Welcome to our family and friends of our first listing - Book A Paddock, and to our new gang with The Stables on Knox. The Stables was a functioning stable, dairy and horse and cart garaging area in the properties heyday many decades ago. The cattle would be walked up a lane, be held in the cobblestone yards you have exclusive use of, be walked into the stalls, where your pizza oven now stands, manually milked, and then turned out to what is now your BBQ area. Its now your next luxe rural getaway. Leave the tent and van behind for this little slice of the good life. Bring your bestie - even your neighbours and your fur baby for a sit back and relax experience. The paddocks to the back of the property are yours to walk to take in the peace and the wildlife. They are abundant with kangaroos and their joeys in the spring so we ask you go quietly and slowly so they can move away slowly. The birdsong is a great way to relax with your book, listening to the sounds of nature.

Weekend Trip to Wetlands - Gatjin Dja
Our second stay at this amazing property. Many sites to choose from, our favourite is the wetlands. Trudy and James are so hospitable and extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife on their property. Private, peaceful, great walks, wild life and fantastic hosts. We’ve stayed at many amazing hip camps, this one is by far my favourite. Cannot wait to visit again.

Weekend Trip to Redbank156 camping / PITCHED cabins
A spectacular place to stay. From lying in bed in the large tent watching the sheep and birds, cooking over the open fire, and enjoying the breeze while in the outdoor bath, we enjoyed every moment of it. Greeted warmly by the host on arrival. Adequate amenities provided for cooking and cleaning, and plenty of blankets to stay warm. Easy to buy firewood from the hosts - we let them know beforehand, and the firewood already at our campsite ready to use. We also really enjoyed the short hike up the hills to be greeted with amazing views. Would highly recommend, and hope we can come here again soon.

Weekend Trip to Lalgambook Retreat
Karen and David's home at Lalgambook Retreat is magical. Nestled in a valley adjoining old gold mining settlements and the Dry Diggings section of the Great Dividing Trail it's a haven for anyone that loves nature, walking or just relaxing in a peaceful and tranquil environment where flora and fauna abound. Directions were perfect and access to the property easy with a little care. The final section of the descent into the valley is a reasonably steep but well formed drive and we managed it easily with our 8m 3.2t caravan and Landcruiser. The waterside site is easy to reverse into, is treed but with plenty of sun for solar power, and overlooks a large dam with a swimming platform. Karen and David have provided everything to make a stay more comfortable - bathroom with warm showers, bore water at the site for washing and a fire pit. We loved our 2 night stay here and could have stayed longer to take in more of the local walking. We walked to the nearby Chocolate Mill for coffee and visited the Daylesford Market and a local winery for lunch. A perfect weekend.

Best Hipcamp to date! From the moment we booked, communication was excellent, and the host’s warm welcome and personal tour set the tone for a wonderful stay. The property was tranquil and peaceful—at times it truly felt like we were the only ones there. A perfect spot to unwind and enjoy nature. Highly recommend!

2 nights at Wetlands - Gatjin Dja
This is a truly beautiful location. Over 200 acres of revegetated bush land with a variety of places to pitch your tent or park a caravan in absolute privacy. Directions and access were easy. Trudy and James’ commitment to their land is clearly evident with so many gentle touches to make our stay comfortable. Flora and fauna abound. We walked the length of Gatjin Dja, and to the top of neighbouring Mt Korong with its spectacular views. Also a visit to nearby Melville Caves and the friendly town of Wedderburn. Thankyou for a wonderful 2 day stay!

Great spot, nice big dam right in front of the campsite, plenty of room to set up (provided no other campers on the property) and very welcoming hosts. We particularly loved seeing the kangaroos and resident kookaburras.

We had a fantastic time here! Jonathan and Jennifer were so lovely and welcoming, and do a mean vegan breakfast! The bell tent had everything we needed including board games, a coffee machine, and a mini fridge. There's also a table and chairs outside of the tent so we relaxed out there with a bottle of wine. We loved seeing the local wildlife that they care for too. Will be back again!

Weekend Trip to Lalgambook Retreat
We loved the waterfront campsite at Lalgambook Retreat! The view across the water is beautiful and we loved daydreaming out on the little jetty. The bathroom facilities make the camping feel luxurious, while still secluded in nature – the best of everything. We saw lots of wallabies and had a kookaburra spend an afternoon at our campsite with us. The sounds of frogs at night and birds in the mornings made for peaceful sleeps, far away from it all. We had planned on going for walks in the local area but the property is so big and brimming with stunning bushland that we didn't need to leave the whole weekend. The artistic metalwork around the property including seating arrangement overlooking the water and fire pit are a really nice touch. David and Karen are kind and welcoming hosts. We feel very lucky to have discovered this gem near Daylesford and are grateful to them for having us stay. We would love to stay again one day and even stop by Hepburn Bathhouse, just down the road, on the way in next time.

Beautiful spot. Thank you for sharing it with us. We had a wonderful relaxing couple of days and kids loved exploring and tossing rocks into the lake. It was a bit cold and windy to take the canoe out. Next time for sure.
