78km from Rosebud · 2 sites · Tents, RVs

Views galore. Your camp spot is on the bank of your own private dam with views over the fields, dam and reservoir. Your camping spot is private with no others campers. You can swim, kayak and fish from the dams on the property and the Wurdiboluc Reservoir is only a stones throw away and is a renowned fishing spot. There are great 4WD tracks located around the area and a short 15 minute trip to Torquay or Aireys Inlet, 10 minutes to Geelong and Winchelsea amenities are close by, but you will feel a world away from it all here. There is no toilet facilities at the camp ground, but you will find a public toilet about 400 meters from the camp site located at the Wurdale Hall

Aireys inlet is a unique tiny town with so much to do. The local beach is iconic for surfing and swimming, the local creek is a favourite at the inlet for young kids to swim or for canoeists to have somewhere quiet to paddle. Mountain biking is a must in the area, with thousands of tracks available right outside the back door. If you have your own horse you can bring it along on holiday with you, we have paddocks available and there are so many gorgeous tracks around to ride on and beach riding at low tide and the right times is a bucket list item! The location itself is 17 acres and is next to the Painkallac creek in a peaceful bush setting. This location used to be a horse riding school which is now not running but has been converted to offer camping, caravan and RV parking. It’s only 1.5 km from the beach and the Otway national park is right on your doorstep. If you have bikes, horses or love to hike or run, or just laze on the beach, it’s a perfect location, be ready to be spoilt as there are so many tracks on offer in our stunning local beach and bush land. The local town of aireys inlet has plenty to offer, a general store for all your essentials, loads of places to eat out for breakfast, lunch or dinner and only 1 3/4hrs from Melbourne. No need to stress if you don’t want to be near anyone else, this is a small setting so it’s very private and its only got one space to rent so that you have peace and quiet. If you do have friends and want to book a double space please just message me and I can open up another space for you. I also have an option to add a pottery class for you, the cost is $50 a person for a two hour session. Look forward to seeing you at our cosy country and coastal retreat.

Our stay at Luke’s land was nothing short of wonderful! From the moment we arrived, we felt incredibly welcomed. Luke went above and beyond to share all the details about the local area, giving us great tips on nearby attractions, restaurants, and things to do in town. It made exploring so much easier and added a personal touch to our visit. The campsite itself was lovely and peaceful, nestled in a quiet spot surrounded by nature. It was the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. And let’s not forget about Roger, the friendly pet rooster! He was such a character, always hanging around and bringing a smile to our faces. Overall, Luke’s hospitality made our stay extra special. We left feeling refreshed and grateful for such a relaxing and memorable experience. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a calm getaway!

Me and my mates enjoyed Camping in the spacious Farm Land. Luke provieded us with a keg and firewood to make a Fire under the Stars at Night, which made this experience extra Special. Luke is a nice Host and his roaster Roger was great company. I recommend this Place to people who enjoy Nature and the simple and quiet Style of Camping. The Camp Site is safe, private and you have the Chance to encounter some wallabies and birds.

Weekend Trip to Seahorse stud

Seahorse farm is a camper’s dream. Host Caroline has a heart of gold and made us feel at home. Surrounded by bush and a short drive to the beach, the location and surrounds is as good as it gets. Caroline’s gentle horses were great neighbours, an amazing experience camping alongside them. Already planning the next trip back!!!

A great option for any solo traveller (specifically female) who want some extra reassurance of safety. Beautiful scenery of the dam, friendly cows and plenty of birds and ducks. Very cold during winter so don’t forget your thermals and make sure you have the fire going strong through the night

Weekend Trip to Green Gully Farmstay Camp Paddock

Beautiful peaceful camp in the heart of Phillip Island. We absolutely loved the views over the paddocks and watched beautiful sunrises while wallabies, rabbits and cows wandered through the fog. The location was perfect for Cowes and all the attractions and the owner was helpful including giving us lots of tips. The onsite micro brewery was a great option of have on the doorstep and no issues with noise or patrons as you’re located well away from it all. We got our 20ft van in ok with bit of manuvering around the trees and fencing, but it’ll be even better with the new gates that are due to be installed. To have peace and lots to do all only an hour and a bit out of Melbourne it’s the perfect getaway 👌

Luke was incredibly welcoming. The paddock you camp in is flat with a fantastic fire pit. It was very quiet at night and you had heaps of space around you and between others. Plus the added bonus of a brewery right next to you was great. I would highly recommend staying here.

Loved our recent stay here, well positioned to explore the Great Ocean Road without being caught up in the tourist hot spots, enjoyed a lovely rustic farm stay. The views was incredible, the cows adorable and the visiting farm dog full of energy and cuddles. The camp area isn’t the tidiest but after the initial view you don’t really notice. Will stay there again!

Beautiful property, views of the dam, rolling hills and surrounded by farm animals! Sunset was amazing, couldn’t ask for much more from a farm camp - cooking area, camp fire pit, hammock, kayak to use on the dam. Privacy from the main house - driveway easily accessible. Toilets just up at the hall.
