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.

We had a last minute stay at Marc’s. Was beautifully kept gardens and nice green grass for the kids to play on. We particularly loved the geese and animals wandering around, was a point of interest for our kids. Power and water available if you wanted it but we didn’t use any. Toilet was fine for what we needed. We made a few camping friends which made the trip extra special for us and the location is great. In the middle of everything.

It’s our very first camping trip which was very fun and special, my 3yo son loves the chickens and geese. The campsite is well maintained and very quiet, very little light pollution which was perfect for stargazing and having beers over campfire, people are super friendly. Highly recommended. It can be a bit windy at night, so bring tents that are low profile and aerodynamic which are better than our ginormous gazebo tent which acted like a big sailing boat in the middle of the night, but we were lucky that the wind stop after 2am so I could had a good sleep in the second half of the night. There’s a Maccas nearby if you need something quick which is always a great option such as a grabbing a quick bite before go to the Adventure Park next door. We would definitely consider to come back again. Well done, Marc and Steve.

We loved our stay at Foxes Den! The property was peaceful and nicely wind protected. Lovely to have a tree and a campfire at the spot, including firewood. Quite private as there is plenty of room between sites.
Camping with the bonus of a short drive to town and the beach. Had a great time and definitely plan to return.

We had a relaxing stay at Nirvana., The property is well laid out and felt quiet and private even though there were a few campers there during our stay. Our kids absolutely loved the trampoline and exploring the property to check out the chickens and neighboring horse. They also enjoyed the company of a few other children who stayed. The location was close to everything on the peninsula so we were able to easily explore the area. Would love to come back soon!

Fantastic spot! Marc’s property is amazing…. all the modern conveniences you’d need and want but secluded enough to feel like you’re a bit off grid. We had a lovely view of the neighbouring farms and a gorgeous horse who came up to say a few times! The property is very well maintained and even with 4 or 5 other guests, we had enough space to feel like we were the only ones there. Can’t recommend highly enough and will definitely be back!! The kids loved the trampoline!!!

Thanks so much Hugh!
I highly recommend Foxes Den, we will definitely be back. We had a great time!
The kids wandered the pine forests, had loads of space to kick the footy and fly a plane. We didn’t have bikes but they could have fun riding around. There is also a community bush kindy that is held on the property and my kids loved going for a wander to play and relax in the hammocks. It is very natural rugged play. The kids loved watching the wild rabbits and eagles fly over, some were huge.
The sites, although you could see the other campers, were very spacious, at night it was really peaceful. Each site had some log seats and a fire pit area with endless free wood chopped ready to use. Hugh met us at the property showed us everything we needed to know, he provided a 10lt bucket of water for fire safety. There was also plenty of water at the front of the property to refill our tanks. It is a little dry and dusty when the wind is present but nothing that worried us. I’d imagine mid autumn after a little rain would be great. We loved our time camping at site 3.
