The rate is $38 for up to two adults, per night, $19 per extra adult per night, and any accompanying children (under 18) are free. Note: Please still add children to the booking, you will not be charged, but it's important we know numbers.

We are located 19km from Mt Barker, surrounded by local wineries, including West Cape Howe, Poachers Ridge, Arcadia and Gilberts.

Horses are happy to have a pat and be fed carrots by the kids. Geese were walking around with their little babies and the dog paid us a visit too. Free kayak and peddle boat to use in the lake. Kids Absolutely loved paddling and swimming. The kids were more excited about being at camp than exploring the local activities. If you have a chance to stop here definitely do it.

I loved sharing the hill with sheep, horses and geese and a few other campers. The views the firepit and watching the kids kayaking in the dam was serene. Also plenty to see and do in the area. I hope hill camping is retained after the caravan park is completed. And did I mention the very friendly and attentive owner, Fiona.

Hosts were responsive. Booked last minute and they were able to accommodate us easily. Farm is beautiful and very spacious. You can choose your spot anywhere so you still have your privacy even if there were other campers on the site. Having a toilet and rubbish disposal was convenient.
